    Ack this whole article is much ado over nothing. The two games the author mentions in his article are American games for basicly an American market. That these games get exported to other countries leaves the pontential overseas buyer to pick choose or refuse if they so desire. Bringing Geopolitics into combat fps gaming leaves the Author looking like a dumb naive nerd with nothing accomplished.

    To ignore geopolitics in relation to these games, most especially America’s Army is to ignore the reality of the world we live in. As the games enemies are almost exclusively guerrillas and insurgents and there are levels based in Afghanistan I fail to see how a connection between the two can be dismissed.

    Or how about these words spoken to promote the Special Forces expansion to the game; "Due to recent actions in the global war on terrorism, there is great public interest in the role of Special Forces," said Maj. Christopher Chambers, the project's deputy director who deployed to Afghanistan and served with elements of the 20th Special Forces Group as part of research for the Special Forces version of America's Army.

    The point of the article was not bash the USA and anyone how saw that in the article is placing their own words into the piece. The point is to highlight a situation that many find distasteful. The most unpleasant of the three games is Survivor, made by a German company, which is trying to make entertainment out of natural and man made disasters.
