The Chinese government, who once labelled video games as "electronic heroin" has now turned to game development in the ongoing battle for hearts and minds.
China plans to release a war simulation video game for its public, called the 'Glorious Mission' that reportedly targets US troops.
The "red" game made headlines earlier this year as the first video game training simulation for China's armed forces. The trailer of the first-person shooter war simulation game and its videos had become popular on the microblog networks.
The game would be released for public by May 2012 Zhang at Wuxi Giant Network Technology Inc, co-developer of The Glorious Mission along with Nanjing Military Command told the Game Developers Conference in Shanghai (GDC Shanghai), state-run China Daily reported today.
Oh wow, I can't wait to play as the chinese army against the US troops only to be defeated eventually! lol.

^^ China is at #3. It would take military genius on their part to defeat the US...
So the people in the US censors movies and games that depict the Chinese as antagonists, and now they're doing this. That's class.
clueless kids, you realize how many people will die if the war break loose.. Sure US might win but you might not live to see it, I guaranteed. It will be a very ugly war.
Firepower doesn't mean squat man, the world #1 can't even win the Vietnam/Korean war. When world top 5 collide, it will be very very ugly...
China is beast youre kidding yourselves if you think they arnt the U.S wouldnt have enough cash to fuel a carrier lol,all those sleeping mcdonalds toys will rise up with a flick of switch all consumer goods have a in built chip with mini toxic bombs ha ha the biggest ground army in the world id call china sir not the U.S.A.
Sometimes I have conversations with sweet potatoes. Needless to say, I'm completely out of my mind. But even I know not to mess with China.
An FPS game developed by the People's Liberation Army of China casts America as the bad guys
It's ironic that after labeling games as a bad thing, they are making a game themselves. That aside, if that picture is from in-game, it's a good looking game.
I'm actually curious as to the gameplay. Maybe I'll find a way to get my hands on a copy.
Reminds me of that America's Army game from a while back.
America is far from clean when it come's to things like these, better yet, they are the best at it.
Consoles are banned with a reason, they are closed hardware, PCs are more open. All this PLA crap is well known in "our" shooters but they named it "Join XS Army"
