The scene establishes the depth of evil and the cold bloodedness of a rogue Russian villain and his unit. By establishing that evil, it adds to the urgency of the player’s mission to stop them.

I have no problem with these scenes. Games have to continue evolving and pushing the bounadries of what's expected of them. If they don't, we'll all end up playing crowd pleasing Nintendo games forever.

Hey, us people in the U.K, N.I and Spain have been living with terrorism for years, the strange thing is that it seems to be a lot of american gamers, saying IW shouldn't have this in the game.

Truth is, for many years now, games have got away with not adding civilians into levels, due obviously to technical limits, and thus gamers don't understand or accomodate a concept of loss or tragedy while playing. In any conflict, there are casuaties we never see or hear of, because governments fear our backlash and censor our media. Any product that brings more awareness, that such actions do happen, should be applauded, nice one IW.

Still ,such a shame you and Activision, still loose points over the PC server debacle.

@Pissed_Off you're an idiot. IW has the utmost respect for america, her military, and her government. when they did modern warfare and world at war betas, they allowed the military gamers to play it first, because they wanted their input. they're not mocking anything. they are in fact bringing to light that things like DO happen, and that in today's world, a plot like this could happen. so don't tell them do eff off when they're just educating an audience who for the most part probably doesnt watch the news.

@Tim_Smith i agree with everything you said, except for the fact that war is honorable. no one deserves more respect than the armed forces of our country. no one.

Christ, get a grip people, this isn't the first game to show brutality nor will it be the last. Anyone here remember Manhunt? Unfortunately Brutality sells and as long as it sells, these companies will keep making these games and we'll keep buying them. To be honest, Im more pissed off with the fact that there isn't dedicated servers!
