What puzzles me is that they are using Medal of Honor: Frontline, a rated T video game that is outdated and lacks gore and extreme content. The reason why? Think about the D-Day mission of Frontline, it's probably the best D-Day I've ever seen in a WWII game, now think of how much goes through your head and how much of an adrenaline rush you get from this. Now think a shooter like Gears of War, everything is defidently on a smaller scale but has some pretty extreme gore, but you don't get that same rush as you do in Frontline. As well, in Gears of War say you just curb stomped someone, that doesn't make me or my friends want to go curb stomp someone, it makes me more want to NEVER do that because of how horrid it is and how terrifying it is. Now in Call of Duty, I shoot them, a little bit of red comes out, but it's not a big deal to you.
Ah, not meaning to get off topic, but I feel ya there man. I remember in CoD 1, when I finally got to the Russian campaign levels (it was the 3rd day of me playing it ever since I bought it, I beat it on that day. xD ). I was very excited, because I recall a lot of my friends telling me how the first Battle of Stalingrad battles are awesome and blood-rushing. I saw the "trailer" of the game in the game itself, (for msot of you CoD fans, you'll know what I'm talking about. You know how when you start the game, there's like a blue/black and white kinda movie trailer you get to watch?) and I thought to myself man, I can't wait to be in the Russian levels. Well I finally got to it, and man, it was extremely fun, the bullets hailing down on you, me not even have a rifle to shoot with, and mortars going off everywhere. It was as if I was actually there, and sometimes I sort of regret the feeling of me actually being there...
...going back to subject while still continuing the story...
I got to the Red Square pillar, where a fellow "comrade" wielding a PPSh Sub-MachineGun met me. He was telling me to find a place to flank the German machine ugn nest, but before I followed his order, I just coincidently looked back at the sight behind me. I literally stood (or sat on my computer chair) in dramatic shock by what was going on. Fellow Russian soldiers being blown up by tank shells and artillery rounds. Being rippled to pieces by MG42 machine gun fire. At least 80% of them didn't even have a rifle, and not to metion a decent helmet. I know it was just a game, and it didn't even have blood, but with that sad, but courage-wielding theme song humming throughout the game, I admit I dropped at least one or two tears.
