WebWord Weblog Posting Posting Date: June 06, 2002 WebWord Comment -- I've been playing Medal of Honor: Allied Assult for the last few weeks. It is a 1st person shooting game on the PC that revolves around the activities of World War II. Last night as I was playing I suddenly realized that I was running around killing Germans. Nazis, yes, but still Germans. Yikes! How do the Germans of 2002 feel about this game? A cultural conundrum, to be sure.

Play Counter-Strike. Great single-life realism. The only people you'd offend would be terrorists. It's an old game, but it never got old. Posted by: on June 6, 2002 10:42 PM
A little bit stupid your reaction. Do you mind killing people crashing a car in a car race ?
I spent a couple of weeks playing and completing Medal Of Honour and it affected me in two ways. 1. I am British and I started to believe the Saving Private Ryan view of D-Day onwards, that it was an American only affair. Is this how children will get their history in the future? 2. I don't think I should be allowed out of the house for a few hours after playing these types of games because I might kill myself. I started to cross a busy road and nearly got run over because I had this mad idea that if I didn't make it I could just QuickLoad and try again ! Posted by: Chris McEvoy on June 7, 2002 03:33 AM
