Soldiers defend the "Medal of Honor" Game
Electronic Arts may have removed the Taliban from the multi player portion of its forthcoming "Medal of Honor" game, but the publishing company wants gamers and the public at large to know that its new war game is as authentic as it gets.
EA also wants us to know that Medal of Honor which is set in the midst of the bloody conflict in Afghanistan, is as realistic as it is because real Special Operations Soldiers from that conflict helped them make it that way.
With controversy surrounding the game reaching a fevered pitch last week, EA has released a new TV spot and a series of videos featuring interviews with the soldiers who participated in the making of "Medal of Honor" β which is set to launch Oct. 12.
In the videos, the soldiers (whose faces have been blurred out) discuss their training, their weapons, and the skills necessary to survive their missions. But perhaps more interestingly, they discuss the mindset it takes to do what they do.
π Awesome job EA! Well executed I must say. π
