Remember those old shitty Fox News reports about Doom being used as a...oh yeah.

But no, shit like this's just silly, but I'd welcome the publicity if I was producing the thing.

Well to be fair, someone at the Pentagon actually did mistake a Team America homage made in BF2 as a recruitment video.

Way worse was their treatment of Mass Effect, which even Jack Thompson thought was misguided.

This is a fucking BF2 forum, where we've been playing insurgents gunning down American troops for 5 years.   Nothing new, right wing blowhards will always find some bullshit to blather on about.

Oh, I knew about the alien sex scandal. I thought there was something about ME's 'violence' that was under scrutiny.

The MEC weren't insurgents they were members of an organized military.

Taliban option?

heh.  go for it.  I'll play on the American side, thanks.

Sitting in an air-conditioned room, safe and sound, 15 seconds away from a respawn, well fed, well rested, with mommy sleeping upstairs.
yeah, nothing about playing a video game is going to teach anyone what they need to know to go up against a modern Western military.

Here's what such a match would look like, if equipment levels were kept "realistic" for both sides in such a game.

That video should've ended with "Vote Republican" That single line made the whole series for me.

(Helps I read the book a few years before the series came out too!)

I can't wait for the gamer generation to get into positions of power so non-stories like this and the Mass Effect thing will stop being passed off as news or even controversy.

I hear the whole Twilight series is about one innocent underage little girl deciding between necrophelia and bestiality.

Where's the poor concerned senator wringing his hands over that pile of steaming excrement?

I don't know if you can call those vampires undead, or the 'werewolves' animals. The former are sparkly fairy things, and the latter are human when they want to be.

And title fixed. FFS, "METAL of Honor?!"

I thought it was about predatory weirdos picking off teenagers for their depraved use.
