World in Conflict is by far the most addicting PC game I’ve played in my entire life.  From jaw dropping graphics to realistic gameplay, there isn’t a Real Time Strategy game (RTS) in the market that fully captures the essence of war.  My addiction has gone so far, where I have to be literally pulled away from my PC to stop playing.

Launch a napalm strike to decimate a forest or call in a nuclear missile to wipe out your enemies.  There’s an infinite amount of strategies a player can employ to ensure a victorious ouctome for the team.  In addition, instant action allows for continuous gameplay with minimal stoppages.  There’s no resource gathering for minerals, lengthy wait times or building fortifications.  You head straight into the theatre of war and utter destruction!

Now my addiction can be fuelled even further thanks to an upcoming expansion pack called World in Conflict: Soviet Assault.  An abundance of new content will keep me glued to the PC monitor all night long (again).

If you’re an avid gamer who hasn’t tried WIC, get off yer ass, rush over to an electronic store and pick up a copy.  Just don’t blame me if the wife starts nagging you to get off the PC.
