On one hand, it sucks that in the Trump era, maintaining shareholder value involves not offending Nazis. OTOH, though, given how tedious the American Revolution one was, essentially running on rails with your character inserted into key episodes, the Civil War episode would have sucked. Presumably you’d have been riding shotgun with Harriett Tubman and/or General Sherman in a succession of semi-interactive cut scenes, repeating until you shot/stabbed enough confederate NPCs to be rewarded with possibly a short break of open-world exploring as a treat.

One example: the early-80s arcade game Elevator Action, in which you play a secret agent who abseils to the top floor of an enemy building and has to grab secret files and make his way down to a getaway car on the ground floor. Well, that’s how it’s described. In reality, you’re a spree shooter rampaging through an office.
About time. The PSP and Vita were beautiful devices that gave a great playing experience. Sony obviously knew how to make a good portable, and throwing that away was a big mistake.
When they were building the Gotthard Base Tunnel under the Swiss Alps, they considered including such a station, linked to the alpine village above by a very long, high-speed lift, but decided against it on grounds of cost. More’s the pity.
I wonder how dual-use the technology is. A submarine-based nuclear strike capability could be useful to a country in Poland’s location, as could the hint of one, or the suggestion of being able to contribute to a joint European one.
