I was going to make a wisecrack about it not being about beating the game, but surviving the war.
I usually make a point to refer to such things as "games" or "simulations". Because they will never be "real".

I remember a passage from the booklet for the tank simulation "Steel Beasts" from years ago.

It said something like, "No matter how realistic you think this is, it will never compare to actually driving a tank. If you really want to experience what it is like, don't take a bath for a week, douse yourself in diesel fuel, and then cram yourself into a gym locker."
