The Darwinia Website (thanks Frans) has word that DEFCON is gold, offering a photo of the gold master disk for the global wargame as provenance. Word is: "After a staggering Five Months worth of beta testing, Defcon has finally gone gold. The master disk has been produced, checked, and sent away for manufacturing. The downloads are ready. We are on schedule for launch at 6.00pm GMT, Friday 29th September. It's all rather exciting."

The patches improved on it too. I thought the game was very good for what it was trying to accomplish. It's a VERY complex game.

Really. I'll have to give it another whirl then. I really liked the first game that I was kind of dissapointed with the initial release of the second. Although that 3d globe was downright cool.

Comparisons to Superpower 2: The only way this game can be compared to Superpower 2 is that it deals with conflicts between other nations in a modern setting and using the globe is the main focus of the interface.

I wasn't comparing it though. I was drawing the parallel that DEFCON has an emphasis on using nuclear weapons as well that Super Power 2 also featured them, of which I actually thought the handling of nuclear weapons was done decently.
