Oh 100%. I was replaying Black Ops the other day and I forgot that the first mission is to kill Castro, who is portrayed as a womanizing bastard. The whole game is basically you destroying stuff socialist countries worked hard on. You just maul the Vietnamese, Russians, and Cubans. Every soldier you kill is a communist.
The best part about the whole killing Castro business is that, they couldnt even manage to kill him in a propaganda video game. 638 + 1.
I was on the subreddit earlier and someone was using the opportunity to teach the squeekers what MKUltra was.
I kind of feel like the actual writers of CoD games are taking the piss half the time, but that doesn't stop them from being sold as earnest nationalist action games or from being consumed uncritically by reactionary manchildren. It's like how every dumbass chud in the Fallout fandom loves Liberty Prime despite it being objectively inane and useless.
The evil Russian's evil plan is to frame the United States by detonating the nukes that the United States secretly hid in every city in Europe as a failsafe should it ever fall to the commies. At no point does anyone seriously question whether someone might have made an oopsie by putting secret nukes in every European city. This isn't a joke.
Plus there was a bonus mission to stop (((communists))) from infiltrating America during the civil rights movement but the guy didn’t play it :(
Please tell me this isn't true. Please.
I just want a World at War remaster so I can hoist the Soviet flag over the Reichstag again in HD.
Gamers will be able to select the gender of the main character, with male, female and 'classified' on offer.
wow thats kinda a pro gamer move
seems a little too on the nose with this whole brewing cold war currently happening
I remember reading about how they were involved in Cold War, or maybe hearing about it on Citations Needed or something, but I don't remember the details.
I've pirated every single one of the CoD games, mostly because I like the single-player gameplay and the eye candy, but this one... this one I don't think I can stomach. Not even for free.
Actually, I might play this one when it's cracked, because of the alternate ending lol:
spoiler
Per Wikipedia:
"If Bell chooses to stay loyal to Perseus they will trick the team into a trap and kill them with the help of Perseus and the Soviet Army before they activate the nukes. If Bell refuses to kill the team, Bell is Executed by Adler but the nukes will still go off. Europe is devastated by the explosions and public opinion of the United States plummets. The CIA is forced to erase the existence of Adler and his team in an effort to cover up the United States' involvement in Operation Greenlight. Perseus boasts that his agents in Europe will take advantage of the chaos to infiltrate every European government and turn them towards the Soviet Union, while his agents in the United States will continue to undermine the country. "
Looks like leftists get sick aviators and berets. Enjoy the virgin helmet, capitalist pigs
Like not 100% these games sell a lot so i would say 60% funded by them
Nah in Cod4 the dictator doesn’t survive but he was in cahoots with a Russian arms dealer who wants to nuke America for the collapse of the USSR or something
I played that game like 100 times as a kid, you shoot the russian guy at the end.
Methinks the conniving Slavic hordes are secretly helping everyone we don't like!
The only question is can we mod it and flip the roles.
