Quite a few years ago, there was a computer game about nuclear escalation...I don't remember the exact title, but I remember reading the review in the ORIGINAL Electronic Games magazine, to give you an idea of how far back we're talking about. (Man, that was an incredible magazine. R.I.P.) Anyhow, the point was to hold political influence WITHOUT World War III breaking out and the nukes flying. If you failed at this task, a single text screen came up, which I'm quoting to the best my shoddy memory will allow:
"You have touched off a nuclear holocaust.
"And no, there will be no pretty graphics of missiles flying, or bright explosions, or mushroom clouds.
"We do not reward failure."
Take from that what you will.
