I am a little curious on how the current group of gamers feels about this. I am a veteran of both Iraq and Afghanistan Wars and really have no problem with this game personally. I just think it is a game and people should look at it like this. However, I can understand the concern of those families whose sons/daughters did pay the price and it may seem offensive. (?)
We do not show remorse for the "other" sides and/or "bad guys" in games, so should we censor the ability to kill US/Brit/Aussie military members?
Therefore, I would like to hear some of your thoughts on the issue, please.
Latez,

Welcome to the Free market and the land of Free speech. If you don't like it don't buy it. I'm sorry but unoffensive speech doesn't need protecting. |

If someone doesn't approve of it, then they shouldn't buy it. There are two sides to every conflict, and rarely is one of them truly a "bad" side. |

They should have never started production of a game about a war still in progress. So far, Medal of Honor has only done WWII but they could have chosen a different war not presently engaged. That said, it just a marketing gimmick to get attention and the people who will protest it were likely never customers in the first place. They should not censor it but let the customers tell them what is morally acceptable and what is too far/soon. |

I really don't get it. Call of Duty had it's whole bullshit story but it was p much TERRISTS vs us military. Nobody was upset about that.
Doesn't matter since the last MoH game worth playing was Spearhead. |
