    To be fair, it was a video game aimed at children to teach them how to be good soldiers during a time when the US was entering a deeply unpopular war under false pretenses.

    Around the same time there were all sorts of lawsuits surrounding video games and their effects on children, so maybe it was a double whammy.

    Regardless of any claims for or against violent video games, the Army shouldn’t be recruiting like that.
