When we get a flight simulator that has a JFK Jr. mode, then something like Call of Duty: Osama will be a "tasteful homage".
*honest applause that shouldnt have been ruined by an animated gif*
seriously CoD "gettin Ouwsammah" would be 10 years of knowing where he is at without knowing how to get him outta there. no promising gameplay here.
At the end you would have to cover up one shot down helicopter and would have to shoot a women into the legs to get out of the way to kill your unarmed main target.
Still there wasnt a cleaner way to do it. but...well, it is as honestly and well replayably as columbine rpg. a necessary dirtjob. nothing that should be cheered at or be replayed.

So, with the news that's on right now, and all the talk about black ops it got me thinking about Call of Duty. Now that Osama's finally dead, and it's a huge deal for us with books and movies no doubt soon to follow, what do you think are the odds of a game featuring the "Kill Bin-Laden" mission? Would it be tasteful homage to the men who did the deed? Or would you think it was just shameless capitalizing on a media frenzy?
Don't think it would be a boring level since no except bad guys died and I think that was only like 6 of them.

Wouldn't put it past them.

...Actually I think people are still scaried. Any company who puts out a game where Osama is killed is going to be targetted by extremists.

It doesn't actually matter. The actual gunfight took them something like 40 minutes, that's entirely too long for a CoD single player campaign.

Some kids in my U.S. History class were joking about this exact idea yesterday.

I personally feel that an exact imitation of the raid in a major game franchise, like Call of Duty, could put the lives of the men and women deployed in Afghanistan in danger, an American pastor burning the Koran did the same thing recently, and I don't think a tribute to American soldiers should endanger them. That seems to show anything but respect for what they do every day. However, I imagine that many people will produce flash games based on the raid and that, as the most important military operation conducted in recent memory, it will no doubt influence the public consciousness and, by extension, that of the game designers at Treyarch, Infinity Ward, Respawn Entertainment, DICE, etc. Due to this I imagine that the raid will influence some of the First-person shooters currently in production.

I don't really care about whether or not the raid is imitated in a videogame. The important thing is that Osama Bin Laden is dead and that his death was accomplished with a minimum loss of life and that no international incident has yet occurred because of it. The men who were deployed to kill him are part of one of the two most secretive U.S. military units known to exist (S.E.A.L Team 6) and I highly doubt they expect, or desire, such a tribute. Especially if you take into account how the events of the operation will need to be dramatized, as most pieces of entertainment based on historical events are. After all, 5 people dead, including an innocent bystander who was used as a human shield, doesn't make for a fun level in a videogame.

Maybe now that Medal of Honor game will be reverted back to how it was meant to be pre-release :p

It would make an interesting game.Considering how flawless the operation went, (as far as we know)someone will definitely try to make it in a couple of years. But the actual attack on the compound would only be one short level considering the Navy Seals were only on the ground for 40 minuets.
Make it real-time. I'd play that. I mean, don't charge full-price, but if you made it minute-by-minute, that could be good fun.

Or maybe include some intelligence-gathering missions to pad it out? Also real-time?
HAha, if it was real time, the game would take YEARS. If you could make that intelligence gathering shorter perhaps. But I like your real time idea.

This might happen, but It definitely won't come from CoD. In case you hadn't noticed, realistic warfare isn't CoD's thing.

That is however, Medal of Honor's thing, so we might be able to expect something from them. (This coming from a guy who loved the single-player of the reboot. Yes, I just said "Loved," You got a problem with that? Not the multiplayer though, just the single-player)
Nope, no problem with that, but... how was Medal of Honor more realistic than Modern Warfare 1?

BTW, I liked MoH's campaign. I can't say I loved it, but I can say it beat Black Ops.
Well, I honestly can't be the one to judge the military realism for shooters, but I do know a few things. Like when you reload and partially full clip, you get an extra round, the one left in the chamber. CoD downright refuses to get this one right. You do have to load the chamber when reloading an empty clip in CoD, but you always have the same amount of ammunition.

Anyway, I'm taking the bit about Medal of Honor being very realistic based less off of myself, as I wouldn't really know and more off of the review I read over at Off Duty Gamers. I have a feeling actual USA military guys would know just how realistic a military shooter is a hell of a lot better than I do.
Here's the review BTW:http://www.offdutygamers.com/2010/10/medal-of-honor-single-player-campaign/

Well I guess I'm lucky as to not see all those adds :p
Sure are :p They always paint the Americans as the victims. It's like DUDE, YOU'RE THE ONES THAT WENT IN THERE. I don't put my hand on a stove then complain about it. I mean seriously, "The Hell in Vietnam"? YOU CHOSE TO GO THERE FFS. Yes it was terrible, but for God's sake, you're not going to be able to retcon an entire pivitol moment in history through video games.
yeah I hate it when games or media try to do that, it happened and it was your choice be honest about it. That's why I like the CoD games they do tend to be about america but they favour talking the soliders and what they over where they are from
