Have you always dreamed of being the ultimate spin-master, or failing that, director of an Orwellian Mini-love brainwashing taskforce? Kalypso's island dictatorship simulator Tropico 4 has you covered. The latest DLC pack, Propaganda, includes everything its name implies, allowing you to hire PR specialists and erect a brand new Propaganda Tower building. To be honest I'm surprised this feature hasn't shown up in Tropico 4 already. You can grab the new power of persuasion on Steam for $4.99, or on XBLA for 400 of the soon-to-be-extinct MS points.

- New mission: The Communist Propaganda Competition
Tropico 4 sees you return as El Presidente, the tyrannical (or benevolent) dictator of the island paradise of Tropico. The world is changing and Tropico is moving with the times – geographical powers rise and fall and the world market is dominated by new players with new demands and offers – and you, as El Presidente, face a whole new set of challenges. If you are to triumph over your naysayers you will need to gain as much support from your people as possible. Your decisions will shape the future of your nation, and more importantly, the size of your Swiss bank account.
Tropico 4 features all new missions across new maps and includes exciting and fun new features to keep the action fresh and challenging. You can even elect ministers into power to help get your more controversial decisions passed through the government. But remember to keep your friends close and your enemies closer as everyone has an agenda!
