I agree. I'm not sure why more games haven't been based on other popular wars. My only guess would be that WWII is something most of usknow quite a bit about.

There is tons of vietnam games. Most are on pc though. Bad company 2: Vietnam DLC, Shellshock, and the next COD (will have both cold war and vietnam in it). Not alot of people know about WW1 and Korean war (history-wise)

I...I just can't help myself. I am a World War II shooter buff I suppose. I hear quite a bit of people say the older weapons are boring. I personally find them the most interesting. You known sooner or latter, probably sooner, everyone is going to be saying the same exact thing about modern/semi recent war games. Then we'll be on to future war games. Maybe then we'll double back again? :P

ya they tend to be boring

I haven't played one since COD world at war. That was easily my least favorite call of duty though.

I thought it was a pretty intense game. I seemed to like the Russian campaign better than the American one if I remember correctly. Plus, NAZI ZOMBIES! :P

WW2 hasn't been touched that much recently. I wouldn't mind a comeback, I love WW2 (and Band of Brothers).

I think this thread is a few years too late, the WWII game craze has been over for a few years now,

I wouldnt say I'm "sick" of them but I am beginning to grow weary of them.

i would love a ww2 game that doesnt include paranormal stuff, waves of respawning enemies, or crazy unrealistic 1vs the entire nazi army...brothers in arms was good...but it felt like i just used my teams to distract and i had to do all of the real work....cod and moh....ur allies...were worthless....i want a gritty, intense, semi-realistic( real handling on weapons, real abilities, no run and gun godmode type gameplay)game, where enemies should take damage realistically, with an emotional backdrop and story line(brothers in arms was really good)

I haven't really been wild about ww2 games. Though I wonder if there are any games based on the Iraq or Afghanistan wars?

I understand why there have been so many WW2 games; it's the real-life classic battle between good and evil, where everyone had a clear idea about why we were there and why we had to win. You look at more recent conflicts like Vietnam and Iraq, both are so controversial and people dispute why we even got involved in either one.

If you want to try a different war like WWI, you need to try a different kind of game. Rise of Flight is a WWI flight sim featuring aerial combat in biplanes.

Yes I am. The reason is because WW2 games have same thing to do,same missions,same locations,you cant put something that didnt happen in WW2,it must be strictly by rules,unless somebody make that we control Axies,and who will want that,me not.

best WWII game is Return to Castle Wolfenstein. it gave the boring WWII formula a boost of awesome. what WWII games need are more sexy Nazi chicks in leather.

No, not all WWII games are the same. A game like SHIII/IV/V do not have you killing Nazis on some beach in Normandy or Berlin. SHIII/V feature you as a German submarine commander sinking Allied shipping while SHIV had you as an American submariner sinking Japanese shipping.

iL2 allowed you to play as several different pilots from different countries and Forgotten Battles offers a dynamic campaign for you. The add-ons for FB like Pacific Fighters moves you to the Pacific theater and allow you to fly either US or Japanese planes.

Look to other genres of games if you are tired of the typical shooters that are overproduced. You never know what you might find.

I love WW2 era. Can't wait for SOW:BOB. and RO2.

We haven't had one in several years now really. Don't be silly fellas. We know why a WWI shooter would not work.Nifty_Shark

I see. Guess that we all are obsessed about MoH,CoD,Bia,and other WW2 FPS games,so yeah we dont know what we can find there.

I'm missing them since everyone went modern after Cod 4colt1831

If we are going to do that why not go a bit further back into history where the armies just stand and shoot without the trenches. We get to have custom outfits with crazy hats. Muskets galore. Awesome mustaches too. But yeah would need to be an rts.

The flight/combat sim genre on the PC has pretty much covered most of the major wars since WW1.

WW1

WW2

Korean War

Arab-Israeli Wars

Vietnam War

Cold War Hypotheticals

Desert Storm

Falklands

Korea Modern Hypothetical

Post-Cold War Hypothetical

I LOVED the russian campaign in World at War it was brutal dark and the atmosphere was great. So if they made another liek that I wouldnt mind it. I think they should make a WW1 game with that kind of atmosphere. Your in a trench wearing a gas mask peering through barbed wire down the gascoveredbattleground with your bolt action rifle. Then through the gas comes an army being lead by a man ona gas masked horse charging then another guy next to you with a turret mows them down. Something like that would be brutal.

I mean cmon check this picture out it looks awesome
