Your ticket to sunny beaches and political corruption is now ready! After a delay in the production process, the boxed retail version of Tropico 5 for PC is now available at retailers across North America. Retail purchasers can now take control of the island paradise and become a magnanimous leader of the people or impose the fierce grip of tyranny amongst the populace.

As a special “thank you” from Kalypso Media and El Presidente, Kalypso Media today announced they are rewarding the North American retail community by providing the first DLC pack – ‘The Big Cheese’ – at no cost to those who have been patiently awaiting the North American retail version. ‘The Big Cheese’ DLC pack will automatically unlock at no charge once it becomes available this summer.

I've been an avid gamer since I stumbled upon ZORK running in my local Radio Shack in 1980. Ten years later I was working for Sierra Online. Since then I've owned nearly every game system and most of the games to go with them. Not sure if 40+ years of gaming qualifies me to write reviews, but I do it anyway.
