3. Gears of War
The 'war' in this game has nothing to do with history, it's all about mowing down aliens with bullets and chainsaws as they attempt to invade your home planet. Even though this game has won a million accolades, the bloodletting rivals a slasher flick and the main characters drop the F-bomb like it's going out of style.
Now this is how war should be waged! And what’s wrong with the F-bomb? The F-bomb stands for Freedom and if you don’t like freedom, you should just leave now. Move to Canada!
2. Resident Evil: Umbrella Chronicles
This scary Wii shooter pits you against zombies and other creatures that go bump in the night. The game follows all the usual zombie laws, meaning that blowing off their heads is essential for survival. Not for the squeamish, plus it requires players to point their Wii controller at the screen like an actual gun.
A game like this has the potential of making our future soldiers unstoppable. When considering how relentless and persistent the terrorists are with their suicide bombings for Allah, they pretty much are like zombies. I mean, after all the poverty we have brought on them, the people who fight back who don't want us to bring them freedom will be dead on their feet from all they've been through. Once kids conquer this, they will be able to conquer any civilization.
1. Unreal Tournament III
This so-called "frag-fest" is really a no-holds-barred shoot-em-up mixed with the capture the flag concept. Shoot an opponent, and he doesn't just fall down – he explodes into bloody chunks that bounce around on the ground. Plus, scripted in-game language includes its fair share of four-letter words that you won't want junior taking to school with him.
But the in-game language will teach junior how to talk on the battlefield when he goes over to the Middle East to defend America. And those bloody chunks will show junior how cool warfare can be so he can look forward to blowing up some jihadists for not one and not two but three or four tours of duties. If he’s going to be over there that long, he better enjoy killing!
Fake violence is bad. But real violence? Well, that’s just normal. And there’s nothing we or AOL can do about normal. Right?
Video game creators have gone out of there way to create 7 games that can help make our army unstoppable and AOL wishes to not support the troops and go after 7 fine video games.
So, this holiday season, while the surge is working and proving that we can wage war, don't get your kids a G.I. Joe or a set of army of men. Nope, get them a violent video game that will teach them the values they need to be the few, the proud, and the strong that we need them to be when they turn 18.
