My New Favorite Box Art: Tropico 3

by on

Check out this dude's beard!

Kalypso and Haemimont were just in the office to show off a pre-release version of Tropico 3. I'll have a bit more to say about that later (short version: it's a return to form for fans of the original Tropico that don't want to be pirates), but for now, check out this guy on the box art:

This guy is all
This guy is all "HEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEY!"
I'm not going to actively suggest that people put Ryan's face onto this guy, but... well... I'm not going to not actively suggest that people put Ryan's face onto this guy, either.

@Zombutler: Hey, buddy.....I'm not sure you are picking up what Jeff is putting down.
Instead, you created the picture which is almost certainly proof that there is a beard dimension....and it is full of nightmares.

The first Tropico was the best management sim ever, I really hope the developer keeps the same concepts I'm used to.

Anyone man (or women) with a beard like that deserves both mine, and your respect.

In the second one, you are basically a pirate king managing your pirate related activities. It was crap.
