PLA Develops First Person Shooter With US Troops as Targets
An anonymous reader tipped us to a People's Daily story about the (Chinese) People's Liberation Army's new shoot-em-up game with US soldiers as targets, and that story led us to a more complete description of the Glorious Revolution game at the Daily Mail, which includes a nice video (in Chinese, of course) toward the bottom of the article that shows how the game looks in action.
Because the US is always the good guys. It can't be the other way around.

Because now Bin Laden is dead, and Al Qaeda has been rather unscary for a few years now, China is the new bogey man with which the US government prefers to beat it's citizens into submitting further to their control and scrutiny with.
That's why.
>For years in USA had the URSS (and viceversa), then URSS dissapeared and three years later it was Irak,
Ah yes, the United Republic of Soviet States. They were truly an incredible enemy. Remember when they launched a theremin guided tesla space coil at Atlanta and it turned everyone into an ape for 10 days? Or when they landed on Mars only to find an ancient race of rock-based life who beat them back with mud weapons? Or when Kennedy and Khruschev fought each other telepathically on national television to win control over the the Fidel Castro android that was running Cuba?
Oh man, don't get me started on Irak. Lord Irak himself killed my grandfather in a electric sword duel. Those were the days...
I guess that makes the US and China "frienemies".

All in due time. All in due time.
Thanks for the writeup, guys, but really, I have nothing to do with this.
More of an RPG and puzzle game fan, anyway.
...we're also one of their largest investments.
There's no -1 for "I don't get it."
