Rod Blagojevich Game Coming to iPhone

What’s the point of Star Trek communicator level gadgetry like the iPhone if we can’t play games on them?

Answer: no point.

Thankfully, we have games a plenty—the shoe throw at W, shed a tear for Obama, Quake4iPhone, you name it. One hot title that I’m looking forward to centers on the shady dealings of one, muskrat-for-hair, Mafioso politician you may have seen on the CNN recently—the defrocked Illinois governor Blagojevich, or as I like to call him, Blya-gojevich (a joke for my Slavic friends out there).

Personally, I was hoping the Blagojarjarbinxovich game on the iPhone was just going to be a reskinned version of Cabela’s Big Game Hunters in which the player must hunt various incarnations of Blagojevich’s jungle-dense hair helmet. Grizzly Blagos, buck blagojelks, wild blagurkeys. That would be fun, no?

Yeah, it would be fun. But it is not to be. The Blagojevich Blagojevichovich iPhone game will be a Mob Wars-style sim in which players engage in various forms of corruption with the goal of accumulating as much money as possible while dodging unions, bribing officials, and finding the perfect mousse to blow dry ratio. No word on a reaction from Blago or any almost senators.

I can’t guarantee that iBlagojevich will be fun, but, I’m pretty sure it will at least be funny. I mean, have you seen that hilarious pompadour/woodchuck haircut? It’s funny. Isn't gaming supposed to be a commentary on social/personal grooming issues anyway?
