China has, quite openly, been preparing for war with the U.S. for many years. Why the surprise about this?

[The Bronze Titan]

They will only listen if they take a hit in their ‘pocket book’. So, what items are we prepared to take a hit on that says “Made in China”?

Our combat hardened military against their video game vets.

That's gonna take some creative programming.

American and Chinese soldiers are both staples of video games. You can’t really play any first person shooter without the option to play ‘good guy’ or ‘bad guy’. I was going to write a list, but let’s just go with ‘damn near every modern video game.

America’s Army is the one notable exception. No matter what, you appear to yourself as Army, and your opponent appears as an insurgent.

Back in 2009 I was in Toronto’s Chinatown, and strolled past a bootleg DVD store. They had some marquee posters for some Chinese war movies. I wondered what a Chinese war movie would be like, and then I realized who the “bad guys” were. I decided to pass.

It’s not a shock that they shoot at us in their video games. We’ve been the “bad guys” to them since 1950.

Our trading partner and friend. Go figure.

[NELSON111]

There are US games in which we shoot down the Chinese bad guys...and kill the Russian soldiers. I’ve played both. to get our knickers in a twist makes us a little hypocritical.

Not much point in fighting an unworthy opponent.

[snowrip]

Meh... is anyone really surprised?

Besides, it’s the closest they’ll ever get.

[ronnie raygun]

Heard today that zero is allowng an entourage of Chinese generals to tour American top secret military bases.
WHEN IS IT A GOOD TIME TO SCREAM TREASON! WHEN!!!

Jason Blair is back under another name, right?

A lot of computer games out there depict accurate uniforms for many nations US included and have since the 1980s.

[6SJ7]

The “Giant Network Technology Co”? Really? Maybe it’s a bad translation, but what an insipid name for a company.

[AD from SpringBay]

Not much different than a number of first-person-shooter games made in the USA with various and sundry non-American targets to shoot. It’s a game. Do we expect the Chinese to make a game with nondescript bad guys?

[death2tyrants]

Violence in video games that liberals can finally support.

[Future Snake Eater]

Well, I’ve been killing Russians, Japanese, Germans, aliens, zombies, etc for years. Can’t remember if I’ve ever killed Chinese.....

[cavador]

They are only making a ripoff of the game add on to Fallout 3 which by this years standards is now obselete. They would have done better by ripping of "Frontlines-Fuel of War" where the scenario is of chinese and russian forces try to take over the middle east to try to seize the oilfields and the US forces are trying to prevent this.
