A Very Good Portrayal of Today's Events [Posted on 2003-03-14]
With war in Iraq looming, this game brings a very chilling sense of reality. With an oil crisis facing the world because of an Iraqi led embargo on the west, the United Nations security council grants the United States and Russia to invade Iraq and Azerbaijan. In this game you must build oil wells to create resource points. You then use these to build your vehicles, structures, bombers, and even nuclear bombs. With a variety of weaponry of today's army (except infantry), you command American forces in invading Iraq, Russian forces in invading Ajerbaijan, and Iraqi forces trying to battle against the U.S. The only negative point which keeps it from getting 5 stars is that you have to speed the game up while developing weapons and technologies. Other than that, it's excellent!

An all too possible reality. [Posted on 2006-07-27]
World War 3: Black Gold combines realistic 3D graphics with inventive scenarios and real military units. You command a force representing one of three countries: the United States, Iraq, and Russia; all of which have unique abilities. The game is made even better by its editor, which allows you to create your own map on which to play. You can even play other WWIII fans via the Internet, though the community is considered by many to be dead. It is my opinion that the lack of infantry is irrelevant, as it would fall easy prey to the more powerful tanks, which are mostly immune (due to their heavy steel plating) to machine gun fire. This is truly one of the best real-time strategy games of its time, and I highly recommend it to all.
