Ha, I've subscribed to their youtube channel. I'm prepared to see a stream of angry newscasters crying over the hack.

Haha I like the different sides of the game. It makes it fun if you try to fight for what the faction you are on is fighting for.
There are indeed a number of examples, however multiplayer games get a bit of a free pass on this one because the game having human players on either both teams requires it to strike a bit of a balance. What I originally had in mind was narrative-heavy singleplayer experiences where one side of the conflict is typically just declared "good" for the sake of putting the player protagonist on it. There are a couple of games that subvert this practice such as The Witcher and Skyrim (though the latter failed a bit in this regard on account of not ending up very balanced at all).

[QUOTE=CubeManv2;40157143]We aren't bad guys though.[/QUOTE] Highly debatable.
[QUOTE=koeniginator;40157965]Half Life, Opposing Force, and Blue Shift?[/QUOTE] I'm not saying all current games are stuck to the "good, evil" trope, I'm saying that the games that are should drop it :v:
now they should hack their youtube account and upload a video on how NK burning in flames
This is hilarious! Not because of NK provoking, but because the news now recognizes "anonymous" as any hacker ever.
