The award-winning PC title, Tropico 3, has now made it’s heavily anticipated Xbox 360 debut today. Not just a debut for this particular title though, a debut for the Tropico series in whole. This is the first title in the series to be featured on a gaming console, and it looks like it’s on it’s way to the same success it has on the PC!
Read below for the official press release from Kalypso. And be sure to check out Tropico 3 on the Xbox 360! With a retail price of $39.99, where can you go wrong? You wouldn’t want to anger El Presidente now, would you?
Making its debut on a console system for the first time, Tropico 3, the politically infused strategy simulation game from Kalypso Media has shipped today for the Xbox 360. Already a global success on the personal computer, the award-winning game puts players behind the cigar of “El Presidente,” the absolute ruler over of a small banana republic.
“We are excited to bring the world of Tropico 3 to a new audience of console players, and do so with our most advanced version of the Tropico series yet,” said Deborah Tillett, president of Kalypso Media USA. “The addictive and humorous style of gameplay found in Tropico 3 has made a perfect transition to the Xbox 360 and is sure to satisfy even the most power hungry of future dictators.”
Developed by Haemimont Games, Tropico 3 is the true sequel to the original best-seller that lets players take the reigns of a small, but strategically positioned Caribbean island and challenges them to stay in power for more than 50 years. As the famed El Presidente, players ward off political opposition while choosing to either lead their country into peace and prosperity, or rule their banana republic through fear as a tyrannical dictator.
Tropico 3 includes a robust set of new features, including a powerful new mission editor, an online challenge mode and a new avatar function that allows players to customize their own unique El Presidente. Once created, the new ruler is free to travel the island giving speeches, issuing edicts and exerting other means of influence. A comprehensive campaign mode features 18 different missions, while a historical timeline editor, new buildings, industries and infrastructure provide players with a wide array of options for hours of in-depth gameplay.
Tropico 3 is rated T for teen and is currently available for both PC and Xbox 360 at retail stores across North America for $39.99. For more information, screenshots and videos please visit the official game website www.tropico3.com

Two 5th Generation Pokemon Revealed! Zorua(Zoroa?) and Zoroark; 13th Pokemon Movie Title
Posted by Feckis on February 11, 2010
Scans from the latest CoroCoro Comic have revealed two of the upcoming fifth generation Pokemon. Zorua(or Zoroa), a small and fluffy fox-like pokemon billed as a monster fox type who is thoroughly evil. And his evolutionary form Zoroark, who will be one of the stars in the upcoming 13th Pokemon movie, Phantom Ruler Zoroark! Originally called Phantom Ruler Z.
Zoroark is actually the Pokemon that was shown only as a mysterious silhouette in last weekend’s Pokémon Sunday in Japan, simply codenamed “Z”.
This issue is slated to be released on the 15th which is when the Pokemon was to be revealed, but thanks to some early scans, the first two 5th generation Pokemon and their names have been uncovered early!
While this news is definitely exciting and can make any Pokemon fan shout with glee, the next game won’t be out until later this year in Japan. All that is known for a release date is that it will be out in 2010. As for the movie, July 15th. So while this is quite exciting for us Pokemon fans, it’s definitely disappointing to know we still have quite a while to wait before either of these hit the US.
