Default Chinese can make videogames too!

http://rt.com/usa/news/chinese-videogame-us-troops/

"It is a first-person shooter just like the famous “Call of Duty”, but “Glorious Mission” is quite different – the enemy is American troops.

The game is designed by Giant Network Technology and supported by China’s People's Liberation Army. It highly resembles other first-person shooter games. Players engage in basic training, conducts mission and carries out orders.

Unlike most games however the enemy is not Russian, Middle Eastern, South American or Asian – It’s American; clips from the videogame show players shooting down US aircraft, killing US troops and targeting all that is American military might.

Ironically, the Chinese game is modeled after the US Army developed first-person shooter game “America’s Army”!"

Cool!

What on earth would happen if a game had you playing a Chinese terrorist and going into a US airport and gunning down American citizens?

That is bullcrap honestly. In none of these games are the "US" troops depicted as killing Chinese Army, Russian Army, or any other official state military. The bad guys are terrorists or criminals of some sort and not any official governments military.

Just what is up with this rampant anti americanism?

aawww come on guys

we're ok with stuff like GTA and we find this unacceptable?
That's the line I was talking about in another thread, just cos a videogame is fiction, where do we draw the line at what's acceptable or not?

Sometimes I wonder how the average German feels about all the games like Call of Duty that we had so far..

Modern warfare 2: russia invades america after an american secret agent posing as a terrorist is involved in a massacre of civilians at a russian airport. get to kill alot of russian military soldiers if i remember correctly lol.

Crysis - Fighting the North Korean army.... then later on some alien race.

Modern warfare 3 (coming soon): more killing of russian soldiers.

prolly a few more that i cant think of right now, but these 3 do come to mind.

Dont get me wrong, im not anti-american, but im all for a game that puts the shoe on the other foot.... well, its a 1st person shooter, so i couldnt care either way To be honest, i would love to play a WWII shooter from a german grunts perspective, would be awsome!
