To be fair, it's hard not to portray a group of troops as heroic when you're comparing them to a bunch of AK-wielding cavemen in black pajamas and rice hats that liked to rig people up as human bombs and dig punji pits with spikes smeared with shit and blood. I'd love to see a next-generation console take the Vietnam War; I liked Shellshock, and the Battlefield offering was pretty good, especially with the inclusion of period music. The Vietnam War was as influential on American culture as World War II, and it would be nice to continue the move away from World War II, anything either company does to distance the FPS market away from that one is a positive step, for the simple fact that it's been done to friggin' death.
