other than that, im preatty sure that if thsi gets widespreed we will have huge "this is desrepctufull to our troops" speaches from americans.

I remenber one game that triggered this, cant remenber the name

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?

And what abt a Chinese Duke ?

Rule Rukem?

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..

Too true mate, as always there are two sides to the coin!

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!

Well, it depends on which side of an SVD scope you are lol
There are already tons of games out there where Americans, British, Germans or Russians chars are killed ingame right now. There are 2 sides in most of the games.

Marketing emphasis depends only on the market the game will be sold mostly. Most of game consumers live in "western civilization" countries most of which happen to be a part of NATO today. It is naturally easier to sell a game where NATO are the good guys in these countries. In China the market is different, it would be hard to sell any game where Chinese people get killed a lot there.

Can you recall any WWII game developed in Germany or Japan? Just imagine "World of Tanks" or "FW-190 the Butcher" (instead of IL-2) game made by a German company. The winner takes it all. There will be a day when the whole world will play Chinese games killing "western insurgents" jk

Traveled 3 weeks along the whole China coast in 2008. It is a great country with great future!

Well, let's hope that won't be the case...
As much as I like other civilizations, countries, continents, I love our western world MUCH more, for a lot of reasons.

Oh, and btw, you're wrong:
"Panzer Elite" was created by a German soft. house, and I liked it a lot!
