"Let's play Global Thermonuclear War"

Creators of Steam's newly released Darwinia set to make new game that is very reminiscent of the movie War Games' famous, fake battle game.

The subject of nuclear warfare has been an underlying theme in many games, but in recent video game history there hasn't been a game completely devoted to the subject. We're hoping that DEFCON will also include a healthy dosage (no more than 200 REMs) of satire. As the film WarGames taught us about nuclear war, "the outcome is always the same, there is no winner". Although that wouldn't be very fun in a video game now, would it? Article link at Joystiq.com
