I'll say only this, the game makers have friggin forgetten that history continues beyond 1945. Every game that has a military aspect in it, is always about WW2.
Naval series such as SH II/III/IV/I (with updated graphics and mods). FPS, even Air simulations. What the hell happened to the Corean War ? Why no love for it ?
What about the Vietnam War ? Also forgetten. And the friggin Cold War ? Its as if it has completely disapeared from the collective minds of game designers. It didin't last 2-3-4 years, it lasted half a century !!!! and we have not a single game (simulation) that is based on CW.
The game industry should really improve its historical component.
