Theres a lot of ethical reasons for this, for example making a game about killing Nazis is different to making a game about killing Vietnamese, Koreans or even the Japanese in WW2. Why? Read it again. Did I say Germans? Nooope. Nazi's. Because its seen as a defunct organisation rather than "Germany" (which of course it wasn't as simple as..) its a lot more politically correct to do so rather than make a game about killing Vietnamese as its seen as killing people who exist rather than who are just a part of history. Course this is a pretty paper thin way to look at it but if you wanted sense, look somewhere other than political correctness.

And yeah I am dead sick of WW2 games. I'm actually pretty sure I would have liked CoDWaW a HELL of a lot more than I did if I wasn't so ****ing sick of WW2 games, and to reiterate my distaste for "PC", AMERICANS! Everytime I play as the conquering invincible American heroes I just want to mow them all down for speaking. Its not just the games but the movies and the way Americans wank themselves up so much in everything. Even in COD4 whenever I'm the marines I just want them to shut the hell up and stop saying such egotistical dumbass things.

Yknow what would make MW2 completely awesome? NO AMERICANS! Just the SAS, or hell...Spetsnaz? The very best part of every COD (WW2) game has been playing as the Russians. Reznov literally MADE World at War.

I have to Agree with Skarteh regarding the Americans. I am soo very sick of american accents in all the games I play. A British accent is like a breath of fresh air. Of course I would prefer an Australian accent but everyone knows they are universally bad in most games.

I like shooting Nazis though. And space pirates. And space nazis.

Its my thing. I go from 0-Rant in 2.1 seconds, faster than a Bugatti Veyron that is!

I would really love to see more World War 1 shooters. I know the guns might be a bit boring but they could really make a hell of a story out of it. And if you think kids these days are ignorant of WW2, they seem like expert compared to WW1. Sometimes I wonder if they realise the 2 means it was preceded by another one beforehand

Proper Flashpoint style hardcore trench warfare would be an amazingly deep and visceral experience. Coupled with the amazing realism the graphics of today and produce they could do a decent job of showing people just how hard it was to fight that way. Of course they can't really simulate the condition those poor bastards were in but that would just make it traumatic...

If you want WW2 than you won't have much luck on the Wii.

The Xbox and PC have been regarded as suitable systems for those kind of genres but I think seem to think otherwise.

Casual gamer and Hardcore gamer category. What a joke it has turned out to be....

Cries XD

Theres 183 and you say there isn't enough? You have Brothers in Arms and World at War on the Wii and they're the best thats been made for a while. World at War may be a **** game, but its better than just about every WW2 game... And anyway didn't someone say the Wii has 6? Thats not exactly a SMALL amount of ONE type of shooter is it?
