With Cuban-American relations warming, now is the perfect time to educate yourself on the intricacies of your average banana republic. And what better way to learn than a videogame?

Tropico 3 hits the PC in September.

This looks good, but I'd kinda rather see another Pirate themed one. Tropico 2 was great!

This looks awesome, but living up to #1 is going to be tough. #2 wasn't able to, at least. Maybe this return to Tropico's roots will be good.
