Well now I'm just depressed
I think Company of Heroes 2 has pulled a first (or at least the first time I've seen this kind of marketing approach) in their first teaser for the upcoming war strategy giant. They seem to think that by playing their game, you are properly honoring and remembering the sacrifice of the Russian people. I have a difficult time coming to grips with this. There's a distinct difference between playing a video game that generally depicts history and participating in some memoriam for the unfortunately deceased. Call of Duty has been throwing us into "real" WW2 battles for years without claiming it was some way to honor those who lost their lives in the great war. Call me close minded, but its tough to set a video game to look epic and fun while making it respectful to the people it depicts.
Conflict aside, CoH2 absolutely killed at E3 and should be even better than the original. Keep an eye out for gameplay releases over the coming months to see what the game will really be like!
