Frontlines

I recently bought the video game Frontlines: Fuel of War. This game takes place in a future world where a coalition led by the U.S. is fighting against China and Russia for control of the energy resources of the Caspian Basin. The game even uses phrases like "Peak Oil" and "The Long Emergency."

Though the game is pretty fun, at times I had an awful, butterflies-in-the-stomach feeling while playing it because of the possibility that this could really be our future.
