Quote:Are all those Force More Powerful books, DVD's and PC games still available? Those tools look mighty intriguing, being an old game-player and game-designer myself. I sense what you were talking about in terms of their potential as group training tools, certainly in a face-to-face setting or a seminar/colloquium but perhaps even online.
Yes.

The game is very good, especially for being at this point somewhat dated. Unfortunately it is highly cerebrial, a very good simulation of how activist operations under a tyrannical regime can be done and the challenges they face. It has little visual action. It is definately not a first-person-shooter type game and therefore has, in my opinion, little appeal to someone who isn't actively using it to train themselves.
However to an organized group willing to put in the time the game is a valuable tool of training.
What would be much better, in my opinion, to attract newcomers to the cause would be rich on-line environment like Second-Life where people can adopt avatars and interact with others in real time, using a USA of 2030 (complete with everything we envision it to be) as a basis in which to survive. The game would require a successful player to overcome the tyranny using similar tools and techniques taught in A Force More Powerful and could also include the same hints of truth about all the things we deal with every day on this forum. Peter's "red-pill truth" would slowly be unveiled to the participant over time.
Wish I had the money and connections to develop something like that.
The other items at the web site are also excellent, especially the documentaries.
