Semi - OT: You put the finger on one of the things I cannot stand about modern PC games, especially FPS's. Don't they ever get tired of making the player a member of some super-secret spec-ops squad who is going to win the war single-handedly? It's nothing but juvenile narcissism. If everyone was in spec-ops they wouldn't be very special, would they? It would be far more satisfying if more games had the player as an average joe infantryman, for instance, and special ops membership had to be earned/unlocked based on performance.
I don't need an uber-elite or commanding role in order to enjoy a game - In fact it woul dbe interesting for SH4 if you had to earn the right to command a submarine of your own and started out as the boat's XO, although that would obviously be very difficult to simulate.
