Ya, could make the ending where the U.S. Government decides to glass them all and victory will be theirs!

Call of Duty 4 wasn't good enough?

I think it is still way too soon. The closest you are going to get is probably Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare. Made up battles, and Rainbow Six terrorist threats.

you don't make a game out of a war if families are still going to be recieving folded flags while you sit on your couch and make entertainment of it, that is in very bad taste

Yeah, it's much better to try to give them time to get over their loss, then you can have fun with it.

I don't know. You don't see many games with Vietnam or Korea. Pretty much all WWII, modern made up stuff, or stuff set in the future.

yeah honestly making video games based on any war that really happenned is kind of messed up, but yes there's a difference in doing something on a war that happenned 70 years ago and a war that's is going on as we speak...

Isnt this kind of a cruel thing to do to make of a game of it right now? some people have lossed loved ones after all, i know CoD4 is kind of like it but its all imaginary and ww2 games tend to be very realistic and the best ones make you think about why and what your doing.

For PC there are a few titles out there. Other than that the closest comes to mind is just COD 4. Of course in the game you have the SAS running all over the place, but the public doesn't and never will know what clandestine operations the governments are doing.

Exactly, well stated. I have friends who have died there, show some respect and do not try to make something that's still a sad reality into a way for you have fun. Have some compassion.
