I AM with the ICRC and I DO violate international treaties in games just for fun

All you bloodthirsty Kaleuns...I just knew that machinegunning the survivors in their lifeboats was going to come back to bite you in the ass one day.

Oh crap, I've done that too. I have also shot torps at the SEAL rafts in Sub Command and Dangerous Waters. Come to think of it, I also used to shoot the scientists in Goldeneye. Blew up Megaton too. I'm gonna hang for sure.

Well I've put someone in stress positions, waterboarded them and then...

oh, wait a minute - does it not count if it's your girlfriend?

Nothing really new: it was already in the old C64 game "Ace Of Aces" possible to intentionally put bombs on train cars of the Red Cross

Damn, now we have to face the consequences at a virtual Den Haag trial - but don't worry, there will certainly a Counterstrike map which allows to liberate the gamers out of the courtroom.

Oh and anyone that's sunk a hospital ship? Oh man, they're so totally coming after you for that one. That's personal for them.

So they didn't and they are not.
It was just a small discussion about promotion and education.

Rather sloppy journalism for Charlie Cook to do a story from another media source which comes from another media source which has already done the follow up on the "OMG!!!!!!!

story" which puts it into the "Oh was that it

story" it always was.
