The eerily realistic politics of Blacksite: Area 51

Gamertell has posted a feature about the parrallels between the story in Blacksite: Area 51 and the current US political scene. From the article:

"The in-game to real-world political parrallels are undeniable: There's the government conspiracy covering up alien existence; the dissent regarding wars started under false pretenses; the point regarding scientific advancement as a point of hypocrisy for the current conservative regime that seems to be only pro-"natural life;" the potential reinstatement of the draft; and, while it doesn't necessarily cover the ugliest of counter-insurgency tactics, the game touches on guerrilla warfare and the insurgency." (BlackSite: Area 51, Culture, PC, Xbox 360)
