    “Flight 93″ and “Green Zone” were tasteless, so was “Black Hawk Down” but it wasn’t exploiting any current events. “Hurt Locker” wasn’t tasteless because ultimately, while it was entertainment, it felt and was in my opinion entirely true to the reality of war and the soldiers it represented.

    That’s exactly my problem with a game like Medal of Honor. If you’re going to exploit a current conflict and the people who work their asses off, or suffer as a result of them, then I think you have a responsibility to be honest and true to what they’re doing.

    Medal of Honor would’ve been a much better game if they had gone the way of BF3 or the Modern Warfares by setting it in an alternate reality. There’s nothing gained by using taliban and US special forces in a game that has nothing to do with the reality in which they exist.

    If you want to make an action movie, make an action movie without exploiting currently living, fighting and suffering people. If you want to make a realistic war movie, then you should do it right by being honest.

    Wow, comparing “Michael Bay”ish story of Modern Warfare to a academy award winning movie like Hurt Locker? Is he high or something? Seriously?

    I do agree that exploration of current events in games is received differently but Modern Warfare’s blockbuster plot-hole mine and explosion happy is NOT the example you want to use.
