Wolfie... You noob. Like the millitary has something to do with gaming lmao.

Besides, its the major part of the middle east who blows himself up etc etc. No miracle it gets reflected in games.

When was the last time a Dutch dude blew himself up

They get it on themselves. And get even more mad by being blamed. One of the major reasons i am not religious.

EVERYTHING is affected by who wins a war and who doesnt, even the innocent trees...the ones losing doesnt have trees left

the same about propaganda like the cold war was all about, the marshall help (or whatever its called) was not an kind act, it was an act to defeat communism due to a thing in the contract saying that they HAD to buy from USA again, and what is the result? USA won the propaganda war and the cold war, ended up in alot of movies where russians were the bad guys as movie companies only care about what sells and what does not, same with game developers

its called capitalism my friend, the worst idea humans ever came up with

[quote="-Wolfie-";p="220095"]i myself must say that i agree with xenon tbh

after the cold war some people (usually patriot capitalists) hate russia, even though they did lead most small resistance groups in the cold war, allthough i must say stalin was a bit whacked and did horrible things, the americans were just as bad. THIS has been reflected in games and movies, for example World in Conflict where the russians are the "bad guys".

in Call of Duty 4 the middle-east is the bad countries, although most people there dont even perform terrorist activities, and the ones who do is just like the people believing in god blow up abortion clinic etc. but not all of them do. Personally i think these things should stop being reflected in games and movies and they should be rather innovative and not the same thing over and over

Its propaganda if u ask me..

and all this because USA won the cold war[/quote]

The Call Of Duty in my mind was always used as a way to fully represent what the wars felt like. I remember playing CoD3 a while back thinking "Is this how It would have been? Fuck this!". These games aren't meant to spawn controversy or to be a form of propoganda, they are a way of showing off a war time environment without the need for actual killing. I play the CoD games for the single player campaign as I always think they represent the actual environment and feel of war well. Other games are too "KILL ALL OF THEM!" where as CoD tries to put you in the role of an actual person, something I respect alot.

Now Ill agree that I'm not a fan of this video. Not because I find it offensive, But because I know there are a LOT of kids that play these games including quite a few on my 360 list. I know it has a tag marking "18" and is an "optional" mission but it doesn't change the fact that the content is there. People over the age of 18 that are shocked by this should expect it from a war game. There have been FAR worse visual feasts than what I saw in this video but ill admit that its fairly distasteful.

Conclusion: Its wrong because kids are getting hold of these games, Its okay because its not REAL!

the old CoD games were set in WW2, not fake wars about middle east and russia

First things first, the tag title in the youtube video says COD4...and this isn't COD4 but hey I like stating the obvious  :D

When I played this game on regular difficulty I didn't shoot the civilians, and when I played through on Veteran difficulty I didn't shoot the civilians.  It felt weird to even watch.  As said earlier, Infinity Ward likes to get as close to realism as possible, and with this mission they wanted to smack their audience with some realism, and it worked.  It got people all worked up.

I can't think of any comparable missions in the GTA series like this.  Most the ones I remember had you shooting at gangs or cops or druglords, etc...  You had the free will to kill random civilians, but it didn't feel as extreme as this above COD mission felt.  The only fun civilian worth killing in GTA are the prostitutes because they drop money  :P

@nomad: some military acutly uses video games to train soldiers, but these are specialy designed and not something you can get in the store so

@the poll: yes i think games that show things like MW2 should be banned. oh by all means i got nothing against shooters (other then that they are boring ), but scenes like that should never be shown in a video game =/

also you cant compare MW2 to GTA4. MW2 is way more extreme, more or less shows how we conduct warfare in RL and so on. <_<

Wow clever you take a picture of COD4 advertisement and spray paint a number 2 into the picture how pathetic.

I took an actual picture of my game cartridges and how amazing, COD4 Modern Warfare is written on the package, but you don't see COD4 Modern Warfare 2 on the second hmm pathetic

And btw if you don't think I'm beating the game on Veteran, you see my PSN screen name in my signature, look me up and look at the trophies  :D   Now go back to playing FL lmao

Yeeouch, That was an obvious joke m8, no one could possible see a jpg that has been edited in MS paint and think that the person presenting it expects you to believe that it's real.  Mick jokes.  All the time.  Half of what he says is just good hearted ribbing, why did you feel the need to take it so seriously that you went and took pictues of the boxes?  Jeez.  8-|

Hey Ryus long time no see.  You may not remember me but that's cool, it's been awhile.  Well I was being sarcastic but maybe my humor is misunderstood.  Those who remember me from the past here know how my humor goes.  I always played the Rogue RP, the badass, Ghost and I always said "Ghosted" and I carried my RP personality into the forums.  Unfortunately on text and blogs and forums you can't always see the person's true intentions thus the reason why emoticons were invented and short slang like 'lol' and 'lmao' are used.

Notice the very last thing in my writings is an 'lmao' meaning I was laughing and being sarcastic, just as sarcastic as Mick was.  And I even put a smiley in there  :P

No hard feelings Mick hope you didn't take it like that  :)

[{SP}Mick]

 I don't know about that m8, don't think i'll ever get over it ...  ;) ...  :D
I was just ribbing you about beating the game on veteran, but to be honest the picture is an actual advertisement for the game, i didn't put the number 2 on it myself.

Definitely no hard feeling m8,.... Unfortunately i have already paid for the horses head and its too late to cancel it ....  ;)

What the hell has this to do anyway with the ''offensive images''??? ?


I still think GTA IV pwns all COD's. ( Oh my god wolfie Niko Bellic is a russian to!!!...)

[Ryus]

Hmm, here I was thinking you missed his joke and apparently I missed yours, thats what I get for reading the forums too late in the evening, after a 12 hour day at work  :P .  You are right though, what sounds sarcastic or funny in our head doesn't always transfer into the keyboard, sometimes theres a disconnect beween what you meant and what I read.
 No hard feelings man, I apologize if I came off as an ass.  Beers all around  <):)
