Yes, If I were to play in some sort of alternate holocaust where I don't kill Jews, but instead kill present-day actors using a powerful time warping machine developed by Nazi scientists and disguised as a Delorean.

I would play as a German soldier quite readily.
A full blown nazi?
I would play a comically exaggerated ubermensch in a red and black leather costume, with dual luger pistols who flys his own modified Messerschmidt. A sort of Captain America and Darth Vader combination that only realises he is being used as a propaganda tool towards the end of the war.

Hm yes, it would be interesting. But they would have to make the character somewhat relatable and human, maybe doubting what he's doing. Playing an asshole who is just a straight plain asshole doesn't make for a good game.
No no, you misunderstand me. I didn't say all Germans were Nazis, I said they were all members of the Nazi Party, and therefore could be called "Nazis" per say. It was mandatory, you were either a member who paid his/her dues, or you went to a campWrongSprite said:
Well, so far I have played as a bald god of war who killed thousands because he is angry, a douchebag that nuked an entire settlement because he could, one of the creators of the atomic bomb, a serbian former soldier that kills, robs and uses prostitutes (not always in that order) when he is bored and a mass murderer psycho who dresses like a clown and likes to laugh a lot while killing for no apparent reason; all that only the last year... So, I see no problem playing like a Nazi next.
you know i am german and coming from the fact that i have a intricate understanding of our history i have to say it would be a very fun game and i would LOVE TO PLAY IT. oh and im a little offended at your third option... not all german solders were a nazi.
plus we had bitchen battles.
no i do not support/ allign/ or endorce any nazi evil shit soo dont call me a nazi... we did some bad shit, and no im not a anti-semitist.
in the end i belive it would be a fun game.

Yes sir I would play as a Nazi, let's not get into the: Nazis where evil...yes they did kill innocent civilians...but emmm didn't the Americans drop two atomic bombs on 70 thousand poor people? Tit for tat I suppose. But meh it would be a cool experience to play a good singeplayer shooter,(I say singleplayer because the germans are obviously playable online) that let you see it from the other side you know. How they operated and actually give the Germans characters, people you can care for and miss when they die. Not just the evil black machine that only shouts out generic statements in German:
>GRANADE
>ACHTUNG
>INCOMMA TOMMY BASTARD!
...or whatever...you know.

YES!!! i don't care what anyone sais .. nazis had some of the most awesome weapons back in world war 2 ... playing through the campaign of an SS soldier during and after world war 2 (when alot of them escaped and joined the french foreign legion) would be amazing
alot of people are too damned sensitive nowadays .. if you don't want to play it then don't buy it
alot of the stuff the germans built back then led to most of our technical marvels today

The Fallschirmjager and the Waffen SS are probably the best.
The Fallschirmjager had the least casualties of any unit because of their leet skills.
The Waffen SS had the most casualties but also the most success because of their insane battle honor medieval valhalla beautifull death in battle courage.

It'd certainly put an interesting spin on the usual "U.S.A, WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO" approach developers tend to take, although I enjoy playing as the british; I even enjoyed playing as the Russians in cod 1. I wouldn't mind playing as the nazi's, seems interesting.
Would I play as a fucking Kraut? No way, they're all bunch of racists, bad eggs, rotten to the core!
Ironic point making aside, I have done and to be honest, I feel like I've played more offensive or disagreeable characters in the past (e.g. GTA: San Andreas or Saint's Row 2) for the sake of gameplay, so I don't see why playing as a WW2 German soldier should make any difference.
It's only a game after all, and I know I've committed far more despicable acts (with the freedoms given by games in the past) than following orders.
Speaking of following disagreeable orders in games, for the sake of completing my mission and progressing the gameplay in a certain direction, in Bladestorm I had to protect and support Gilles de Rais [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gilles_de_rais] - it doesn't mean I condone buggering children and sacrificing them to demons.
Hell, some of the things I've done in The Sims or Fable 2 are probably a lot worse than anything Hitler could have come up with.
I wonder, how many people wouldn't play as a Nazi, but would like to be able to finally solve Little Lamplight's annoying kid problem...?

No, I'd be all like "I'm a member of the master race punks, I don't have to pay for shit from your inferior asses"...ok, I guess that jokes been done...
Seriously now, I have done so in, er, Company of Heroes was it? The RTS by the same guys who did Dawn of War? Also in IL2 Sturmovik. To play as an actual fully paid up memeber of the nazi party, probably not but maybe as a german soldier. Not against the British though, I couldn't bring myself to do that.
