It is not fair to all those heroes to award the "real" Medal of Honour to someone who plays a game for 2 hours, in the comfort of their home.

Others may be doing it in their games, but that doesn't mean is ok. This is one of the problems of today's media, that it builds egos the size of a house without any real merit on "your" part.

Let's not be selfish and consider/imagine what the war was like.

But I agree on the reward for shooting down a plane etc.
I believe it is too easy to receive the medal of honor in Silent Hunter 4. Just read the MOH citations of the sub service recipients. The point is very clear. You don't get it for doing little and risking little. The Medal of Honor should be extraordinarily difficult to receive. If anything, the developers were too generous in that regard.
