You're right, it would be great, but nobody is going to do it, at least not in the format we here would like to see.
The days of the cold war are over by a generation or more, nobody really cares any more about what could have happened. Any games made these days will be all about more current events like Iraq or Afghanistan, or some made up country which looks a lot like those sorts of situations and where the good guys (aka the western world) always comes out on top without having to resort to nukes, chemical weapons and massive worldwide depopulation.

The tech certainly exists to do a great T2K game (or similar scenario), but who'd play it? More to the point, who besides us archaic fanatics would spend the money and buy it?
