      Oh jesus christ. You bust in to Castro's room, he takes a women in her underwear hostage, you shoot him in the head... Then the woman pulls a machine gun from no where so you kill her, too.

        You mean Fidel Castro's body double. Because Castro is a bit harder to assassinate than that. Try poisoning his wetsuit next time.

        also one of the cod games made a mission that was obviously a reference to a well-known American War Crime from the Desert Storm era (highway of death) and then said Russians did it.

            there's a great book about this kind of shit called "National Security Cinema" though it mostly focuses on movies, as the title impies.

          Isn’t that the one that helped spread the myth that every other person got a gun and the rest got ammo for when the other guy died?

          Not complaining, just makes them look even braver :rat-salute:

        *fuck all CoD games past World at War

        Feels like both Infinity Ward and Treyarch are trying to "repent" for criticizing Western interventionism and portraying the Red Army sympathetically respectively since those games. No other explanation.
