There are always going to be unsung heroes, that's why I think even WWII games haven't been fully exploited. There were very brave resistance forces from many countries that were vital to the war effort against the Nazis. Also, there were many snipers not given due credit like the Scottish Ghillies that trained the Brits how to stealth snipe and the many Russian women whom were expert snipers.

we definatly need to see more none american based wwII games the german side could be very interesting to see maybe but not sure how that mite work.

the russians should be shown as they had some veyr intense battle stalingrad anyone

I was really bummed when I heard the volunteer modding project expansion of CoD2 Rise of the Resistance was cancelled after they'd spent about 9 months on it. Hopefully the French team of modders that picked it up can finish it. It's about the many resistance forces whom fought in WWII.

Or a game company could be original and interesting by using some other motherfucking era besides World War 2.

Yes, WWII games definitely need to be about different sides OTHER THAN the U.S. From what I've seen here, it seems to me that a few of us here learned about World War II from playing video games rather than from books or school or something.

News Flash: The United States did not do all of the awesome stuff in WWII.

:eek:

I agree, there needs to be a WWII game based on Russia. After all, the Battle for Stalingrad was... epic, to say the least. Besides, it was the Russians who invaded Germany, not France or the U.S. or some other country, in case you didn't know.

Lol, yea, that's because the germans attacked Russia after they had signed an alliance with them. BTW, in one of the call of duty's you play a couple missions as a russian, in fact in all of the COD's you play as different factiosn.

Call of Duty splits you pretty evenly between U.S., British, and Russian in CoD 1, UO, and 2 at least. There are also other Russian vs Germans games. Red Orchestra is the first one that comes to mind, but also games like BF1942 had Russia in the game.

Russia and Britain are hardly unacknowledged anymore.

I mean that someone should make a game just focusing on, say, the Russians, as opposed to half-and-half.

Red Orchesta is all the Russian front.
