Help Kerry save the day, 'Nam style

by James Ransom-Wiley { Sep 17th 2004 at 9:46AM }

Lt John Kerry War records? So that's what this year's election has boiled down to, eh? Well, it looks like Kuma Reality Games is going to get their two-cents worth on the issue with the release of their newest military simulation title. Still untitled, the game chronicles the February 28, 1969 incident in which Lt. John Kerry's Swift boat was ambushed by the Viet Cong. Fill Kerry's boots as you turn and head straight into the attack, leaping ashore, and valiantly slaying the enemy with B-40 launcher in hand. Kuma's chief executive, Keith Halper, in attempt to sound non-partisan adds, "We will allow the user to play the game to determine for themselves what they think happened." Next up, Bob Dole's WWII heroics, with Senator McCain's capture on the backburner.

Avoiding medicals and getting drunk in local bars?

Not wanting to sound like a gun nut or anything, but Kerry's holding an M16A2, which wasn't designed until the early eighties... he should be holding an M16 or an M16A1 with the triangular foregrip (as popularised by Full Metal Jacket, etc.).

I guess we're all geeks here, so I don't need to immediately run and hide.
