Ahh yes, the worst (or best depending on your views) act of Propaganda in the world, ever. Not even the Soviet Union (in its Corrupt years) would have pulled pulled a stunt like that.


Hmm, modding that would be rather fun.

Meaning?

Are you telling me that you're from Former Yugoslavia (spelling) and don't know what left Wing Means?

Hehe

Pfef. The only interest this holds is that it's supporting a theory I have that there is not a single fully competent person working for the US government.

[JR2000Z]

Even the military promotes violent video games.


It's the American Way.

[Stryke 9]

Of course. They only wish they could blur the distinction between them and reality...

Its a whopping 260MB!!! How am I going to download the damn thing with a 56k modem?!!

Wished I had more money to subscribe cable or broadband...

I'll give you 10 dollars that if you ignore the fact that it's propoganda, you'll fall in love with it.

[Stryke 9]

Nope. It's still a steady mediocre at best.

[Unknown Target]

No way! The realism is top-notch, and the style of gameplay is very unique!

I think you guys are just all used to UT2K3 (which, incidentally, AA:O is based off of that game's engine )

[Stryke 9]

Well, I might not be the best judge. I'm not a shooter man, at heart. It just seems too much like a poor substitute for having an actual gun, if that's what you're into (and I am, provided I made the gun and it can take out a good-sized tank). I might be looking for the wrong things to expect from a shooter, but that's my opinion. And no, I only played Unreal once. The bass gave me a migraine, and I only got out of the flailing-about-randomly stage and into the running-into-walls one before being reduced to ash some 40 times in a row.

Yes I am from Yugoslavia, and I don't know what left wing is.

[diamondgeezer]

Left-wing means the guys who run the place, mate.

Left Wing/Right wing comes from the british house of commons where the Liberals (Whigs), who wanted change, sat on the left hand side of the speaker and the Torys, who didn't, sat on the right hand side.

Now they're evolved into two opposing philosophies where left wingers generally want to change the distribution of wealth amongst the people through government intervention and Right Wingers want to sit back and let the Market dictate who get's money and who starves (guess which philosophy is implemented today). Extreme examples of this include Communism or hard Leftism (As written by Marx/Engles) and Fascism.


With Yugoslavia being a former Communist (or regieme that claimed to be) state, I would have thought Leftist/Right wing awareness would be impossible to escape.

Oh God...
Can't you people FOR ONCE forget that politics affects absouletely, 100-percent, EVERYTHING you do and actually enjoy a good game?

[Kellan]

1) It does.

2) AA: O bored the crap out of me as a game. That was disregarding the fact that it demonises the enemies of the current Washington regime (to be expected, of course) - although to be honest, in what way does the left wing threaten the US at all these days?

Idologically it's highly dangerous for a Country with in excess of 40 million impoverished people but with more multi billionaires than ever, a neo-feudal class syestem (grading), puppet governments that cover a greater proportion of the earth surface than any empire ever and where most consumer products are made in sweatshops.
