    It isn't a game, it's a simulation - and a deadly accurate one at that. I presonally found it fascinating, and it raises a lot of questions about the assassination of JFK. If Lee Harvey Oswald was the "lone gunman", why wait until the limo is driving away? As the demo shows, it would have been much easier to kill JFK while the car was coming towards the Texas Schoolbook It isn't a game, it's a simulation - and a deadly accurate one at that.

    The simulation, viewed on its own, is quite compelling. Offered in a different context, its analytical depth would reward hours of study. Unfortunately, Traffic has framed it with all of the taste and restraint of a tatty traveling shooting gallery.

    Despite absurd justification for making this thing, as a cold-blooded sniping exercise it delivers.

    The game itself is too lightweight to stand much repeating, leaving two possible outcomes: you'll become a paranoid conspiracy theorist, or get bored, shoot the driver, and watch them all perish in the resulting crash. [Feb 2005, p.93]
