Modern Warfare 2 Trailer Criticized For "Going Too Far"

I wonder if he has EVER PLAYED A GODDAMN GAME.

These kinds of things happen in games and he never noticed them.

I wonder if he was just cruising around on youtube and found the trailer.
In fact,that makes much more sense.

The imagery is definitely striking, but the CSM author is over-reacting. I don't see why it would be more acceptable to depict "some fictional town in eastern Europe" as a bombed out wasteland, perhaps because that imagery isn't pulling on your American heartstrings?

I was thinking along the same lines. I mean, Germany gets their Reichstag taken over by Russians in World At War and that's perfectly okay, but the moment DC gets touched it's something to be condemned? In fact I'd say the constant representation of Eastern Europeans and Arabs as evil warmongers is far worse than this. What does it matter if we see DC blown up anyway? Is some American going to die of shock? Can someone explain it to me?
