A new online multi-player browser game follows Barack Obama bringing the U.S. to total collapse. Americans rise up on the web and begin a revolution. RT's Anastasia Churkina met up with the mastermind behind the scandalous game.
Online strategy gamers who wish to lead militias against Obama can finally do so in “2011: Obama’s Coup Fails,” a chock-o-block multi-player strategy game served up by United States of Earth.
Of course, the game is not very violent. No one in the Obama administration is killed or assassinated, the game’s creator explains; they are merely “captured” by right wing militia armies.
This game has been kicking around the ‘tubes for a while — Mother Jones‘ David Corn wrote a fantastic article on it last month — but Russia Today recently went behind the scenes with a camera crew. Among their findings: the game currently has 13,000 players, with hopes to draw as many as 200,000 next year. Also, its creators work behind a metal door in an undisclosed location in New York out of safety concerns.
Wired savaged the site as “poorly designed” and “the project of second-rate coders.” But “2011: Obama’s Coup Fails” also features futuristic political satire and fantasy written by its players, like this bit about the capture of “former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton,” who of course went down using orphans as human shields.
Perhaps Mr. Russoto can hire Dennis Miller to write some more 'conservative satire.' Apparently the GOP has resorted to fantasy after the drubbing they took in the 2008 elections. The term 'loyal opposition" doesn't appear to be in their vocabulary.
