The developers behind the upcoming game World War III Online wants everyone to play "What if?" What if the Soviet military staged a coup in 1989 and prevented the fall of the Berlin Wall? What if the Red Army decided to forcibly put down the freedom movements in the Soviet satellite states? What if that action led to another World War?

The game will be a multiplayer, free-to-play FPS PC game when it launches. This one's a true indie and it's being made without the massive resources that the big guys throw at Call of Duty or Splinter Cell. Check out the videos below. If the execution matches the excellent premise, WW3 Online might be a winner along the lines of World of Tanks. If you're interested, follow the game's development on Twitter or Facebook.
