Anyone play WWII online?

I think any game based on an actual war should be prohibited. It degrades the men that fought and died during the war.

 

My grandfather was a WWII veteran. He was a paratrooper that received a Purple Heart and a Bronze star... when I was young I would always ask him about the war because I thought it was "cool." But looking back now, and remembering his face, I can tell it was something he didn't want to think about. Games like this make the actual experience cheap and worthless. I think games like this should be banned, because it degrades men like my grandfather.

I appreciate that. My grandfather lost sight in one eye because the operation he would've had to undergo would've taken money away from that which he could use to feed his 4 children. So he lived with pain his entire life (from a mortar shell exploding near his position) - he had metal shrapnel coming out from his skin till the day he died...

Very sorry to hear that. A close friend of mine lost his mother when he was in 5th grade (he was about 10 years old, I think). His mother planned everything about her funeral (she had cancer, and knew it was coming) from her funeral site to her will to her tombstone to part of her eulogy... I was only 7 when my grandmother died, but I still remember it as the worst pain i've ever experienced.
