Q - Quit with the social commentary.

I don't need another game trying to tell me how bad the war in Iraq is.

Every form of media is telling me how awful I should feel for the soldiers and how we have no right to be over there. That may be true, but I don't need it shoved in my face on such a regular basis. Shitty things happen and then 10 years go by and the results of that one shitty thing has turned into a 10-year long campaign against reacting to shitty things. No thank you.

It is bad enough that it is in the papers and all over the news instead of, let's say, important shit that should be covered. Now it is in music and movies. Rapper and hard rockers alike telling me all about how Afghanistan is crazy, dawg. How those soldiers need our love and respect. Yawn. Movies covering not just this visit to the desert, but the last one we had, as well. It's just getting so out of control.

And now you, video games. Now you're going to push this shit on me. I know what a shitty fucking wasteland looks like, you can't fool me. I know where I am going and I know who I am fighting. America's Army, Call of Duty, Battlefield, and now MoH. I know what you are doing and I want you to stop. I would love to see various locations, but I'd really much rather skip the wasteland and go back to the jungle. At least Battlefield can be counted on to make it interesting and dump me back in a Vietnam setting... but the social retardation from that era is still there.

Can't we just keeping video games fun? I'd rather not play the news for entertainment.
