Exercise 2.2 - Games about the Economy and Marketplace

So I played the Mcdonalds game and failed miserably the first time. After learning a little of how the operatoins worked the first time my second attempt was much better. I had about $180,000 in the bank when things started to go south. My land was becoming scarce and my first mistake was demolishing some rainforest and civilized area. I then fired most of the senior staff for insubordination, lack of motivation, and worst of all spitting on the food. My scarcity of soy, slowly starved all my cows and mad cow disease had been found in consumers. Every possible negative situation arised and before I knew it the corporation was bankrupt. www.mcvideogame.com/game-eng.html is the link and it was very interesting seeing the operational systems in place for marketing, corporate, advertising, production, etc.
