Kim Jong-Il Dies, Homefront Predicts What Happens Next
This is EXACTLY what came to mind when I heard the news about Kim Jong-Il's death.
From Forbes:
Homefront game synopsis:Last night, North Korean despot Kim Jong-Il was announced dead at 69 by his countrymen. Though I expected to hear them say he perished saving schoolchildren from a pack of mutant bear-sharks, instead the official word is that Kim Jong-Il just died from fatigue on a train while traveling.
So now what happens? North Korea is a nuclear power and Jong-Il’s son Kim Jong-Un takes command, though he’s said to be more interested in video games and food than governing. But what happens if he looks to games for how to rule now? As it happens, one title has already predicted the next steps for the human race, THQ’s Homefront.
In 2012, just over one year after the death of Kim Jong-il, North Korean leader Kim Jong-un reunites North and South Korea to form the Greater Korean Republic. The influence of China and the United States decline in the face of continued economic stagnation and a war between Iran and Saudi Arabia that disrupts Middle Eastern oil supplies, while oil and gas to Western Europe is cut off by a Russian-Ukrainian “mutual interest” deal. As the United States withdraws overseas troops to deal with domestic instability, including the Texas secession debate and an outbreak of bird flu known as the Knoxville Cough, the Greater Korean Republic annexes Japan and Southeast Asia. By 2022, the United States faces extreme economic turmoil and massive social unrest, culminating in complete economic collapse.
