Okay, this WWII game looks like fun...

Yeah, EA is totally ripping off TF2, but it looks amusing. WWII as cartoon fighting.

Somebody combined my previous guilty pleasure of Disney's Toontown online with my all-time favorite shooter, Day of Defeat.  My productivity is doomed.

No fun if "ze National Army" aren't 'Nazis.'

I mean, killing them is 80% of the fun of a WWII game, right?

There's just something right about shooting people wearing swastikas or rising suns . . .  angel

Should be fun, but I heard that it will be in third-person perspective. Sad

Grand Theft Auto: Fatherland. You just wander around Berlin in the waning days of WWII waging vigilante war on the remaining power structure.

Oh, I should note that the 22% fun above the 100% theoretical limit is derived from the pleasure I get from beating, with the butt of my weapon, the corpse of the Nazi I just shot.
