DeVotchka-How It Ends

i think its old men who think up wars for the young to die in.

i believe the saying is something like that anyway.

Hear, hear.

thinking people are animals is not a view on humanity

Lol nice way to put it..

I love Devotchka... just create nice song

simple if you have the choice...

Absolutely epic song

im sorry really i am but if we're all done talking about computer games we should pay attention to the song and how good it is

im sure if we want to discuss GoW2 and glorification of war we should just go to the more relevent page :)

This does not even come close to what the actual loss feels like, but it still shows that the creators understand to some small extant the losses dring war. And if anything, the glorification of war can only be blamed upon children, teenagers, and young adults who quickly launch the franchises to fame through sales. Society loves fight, whether it be in an actual war or through a video game.

Obviously, in a utopian society, the glorification of war would be frowned upon. Unfortunately, postings numerous complaints about it on youtube will not make even the slightest impact.
And war games do not try and belittle or make light of the sacrifices that brave soldiers make everyday. On the contrary, in many a war game, when a fellow soldier who is one of the players companions dies, his passing is often dramatized to the full sentimental effect possible in a video game.

And listen, to all og you who are criticizing war games, give me and those that actually have a functioning mind a break.
If you do not like the game or approve of its message, then please, by all means, do not buy.
Do not let your children, or your children's children buy it.
Explain the "evils" of war to them.
But please stop trying to impose your pacifistic and/or bible thumping ways upon the mainstream.

I completely agree. Computer games shouldn't glorify war. War should be shown to people for what it is, For what is happening to the men and women who people in todays world seem to care little about. I think it is disgraceful the way this country (Britain) treats/displays the efforts of our servicemen and women overseas. Children today need to learn about every inch of what goes on in Iraq/Afghanistan
and so on..

My respects to the family/Friends of Alex Lucas.

And my utmost respect to him.

to all of you who try and deny and/or belittle war, just know that war is a neccessity of human life, as is almost every form of conflict. As Sylvmeister said, it is written in our DNA. There will always be two sides to every story or event, and often times both sides are to arrogant or ambitious to admit their wrong or leave well enough alone. To try and deny our basic instincts as humans would to try and deny how, according to Christians, God made us.

"if people dont wana die in wars dont join the motherfucking army!! simple."

Absolutely. Those brave men who do join up know what they're signing up for and they don't complain. I just on't think games like this are respectful to the very real challenges they face.

see it's funny because that's exactly what you were doing.
