Very refreshing to see a story give the list right at the top of the article rather than making you click through it 15 times. Having said that, how do you not have HoMM3 on the list?! Yes, it's turn-based strategy, but it still has a strong multiplayer following 22 years later.

I actually won't play BF3, MoH, nor will I purchase any new CoD games because I think it's terribly offensive that these games mirror current on-going wars in which we are actually portrayed as the "good guys", when anyone with half a brain and some critical thinking skills knows damn well that our wars are illegal and we are tearing this peoples countries and lives apart just so we can occupy them for their resources because of our economic interests. Our wars are for the corporations, not freedom or our country.
Sorry about that rant...
With that said, I would much rather a sci-fi or made-up countries/factions setting for games based around wars that way no one's feelings are hurt, no one's feathers ruffled. This is part of the reason why I prefer Resistance and Killzone more.
Its not offensive to Russians at all, its only Offensive to butthurt Soviets that long for the old days.
Thats like saying WW2 games are offensive to Germans, because of the Nazi's.
This is what we are complaining about really? Whats next the French and Germans are going to be out raged about the next Rome Total War?
Is it bad that I want to play as a U.S squad that realizes the U.S is doing something evip and stops while betraying their country at the same time? That woupd be a epic story.
COD is made by Americans for Americans (straight up)
if you people on here (an American gaming site) do not like America, or think its military people are not Heroes...
kinda odd to be complaining about "western ways" whilst using an Avatar discussing western video games on a western website (N4g = american site).
