Video games as propaganda

Venezuela sucks.

Hugo Chavez sucks.

The US not having it's own oil supply sucks.

I don't know who Hugo thinks he is really. He goes around saying how if the US tried to invade Venezuela we would be "soundly beaten" but prior to him gaining power and talking about the power of the Venezuelan military I didn't even know that there WAS a Venezuelan military.

No, he says the US IS going to invade. It's laughable. He's one of those crazy left wing latins. :rolleyes:

AA rocks. I've been playing it since it came out in '02. It went from kinda choppy Army Sim game to fast smooth and hot.

Video games as propaganda isn't as bad as kid's cartoons selling ad placement in the cartoons themselves.

The Transformers and a slew of other 80s cartoons were nothing more than marketing tools to sell toys.

True but now cartoons sell ad space within cartoons. So the cartoon characters hold cokes or ads on billboards or in the backgrounds of scenes.
