History lessons anyone?

Don't you guys feel saturated and sick of all the wars based in the past. Let's look towards other conflicts brewing up. Perhaps a contemporary campaign against terrorism. Make it as real as your development budget can (dismemberment, POWs, Torture, and all).

STOP THE MADNESS!!!

It might have some appeal but I for one don't react well to people profiteering off recent conflicts. I'm looking forward to the Afghanistan mod for OFP, it doesn't irritate me cuz it will be a free mod, no profiteering.
I work in a video-game store and it drove me insane during the Iraq invasion when dumb red-necks bought games related to the Gulf War. Mainly Conflict: Desert Storm, not only is that game a flamming piece of crap, but the publisher is making fat loads of cash AT THE VERY MOMENT people are fighting and dying.
I love a good war game, my desk is coverd in them. But I think it's unethical for a company to profit off a conflict that is only a few years or months old. WAnt to make an Operation Iraqi Freedom mod?...Have at it, I would gladly download and enjoy a mod-ers labor of love and enjoy it. But I turn red in the face with anger when I have to sell THAT STUPID game to IGNORANT red-necks so the STUPID publisher can make money off of it.

Sounds like you&#39;ve burnt out friend&#33; Perhaps its time to find gainful employment in a redneck free zone. Say, you wouldn&#39;t happen to work for walmart would you? I need a new set of NASCAR bed sheets and one of those singing bass plaques. YEEEEEEEEHAAAAAW&#33;

[Impavido]

You&#39;re remarkably close...my store is next door to a Wal-Mart...*sigh* If you listen carefully you can actually hear the humanity and intelligence being sucked away...poor bastards.
And the Soda machine next to my store has NASCAR drivers on front of the machine advertising Coca-Cola....I HATE MISSOURI&#33;&#33;&#33; DELIVER ME FROM THESE INBRED IDIOTS&#33;&#33;&#33;

[theavonlady]

And I&#39;ve got a sing trout&#33;

But no Wal-Mart anywhere nearby.

[Jinef]

I actually have a singing bass too&#33;

Oh take me to the river&#33;

And

Don&#39;t worry, be happy.

I know what Impavido means. I play Combat Mission: Beyond Overlord almost as mch as I play OFP, and more often than not, I play as the Germans (unfortunately for the American AI). I couldn&#39;t do the same in games that model more recent or immediate conflicts. It&#39;s crass, it&#39;s wrong, and it&#39;s exploitative.

Ever see Spike & Mikes Twisted Animation festival?
Before all the toons came on Spike & Mike had a bunch of pop culture icons in their back-yard, pokemon toys, singing bass, etc.
They destroyed ALL OF THEM with baseball bats abd a shotgun.
The best part of it was when they had a singing bass on the floor. The thing was at the end of its song and turned its head up and opened its mouth. They stuck a shotgun in its mouth and pulled the trigger. LOL IT WAS PURE ART&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;
