I can appreciate the author's feelings about fighting Japanese soldiers because of his heritage and there is now doubt that the internment camps are a blight on America's otherwise heroic response to WW2.

I think the reason that it's so much easier to mow down hordes of Nazis is because the atrocities committed by the Empire of Japan during WW2 have pretty much been swept under the rug. Everyone learns about the horrific actions of the Nazis during WW2 but no one learns about the Japanese atrocities. One need only look at the occupation of Nanking, China to see that the atrocities committed by Japan are just as horrible as those committed by German forces, if not worse. History has turned a blind eye to these atrocities and, therefore, Imperial Japan hasn't taken on this status of "mythical beast" that Nazi Germany has.

Maybe Shakesville should put down the thesaurus, quit trying to come up with big, intelligent-sounding words, get her left hand out of the box of Ho-Hos and get her fat ass away from the computer and get some exercise!

IMHO, it's pretty simple why they haven't caught on. Boring and predictable. I was really disappointed in the first one and didn't even bother with the second.

Jason, the whole "America hates Syesha" thing is getting old. You're a fan, I get it. Most of America, however, is not. Why? Syesha is probably the most predictable contestant in a long time. Honestly, was ANYONE surprised by her song choice during Dolly week? She has talent, but she does the same bad Whitney imitation week after week and brings nothing new to the table. She seems to think that her voice is up there with Mariah, Whitney, Fantasia, etc. Trust me, it's not. It's not even close. America doesn't hate Syesha, most people are just smart enough to recognize mediocrity and self-indulgence.

Wow, how many other games can you ripoff in one trailer? Half Life, The Suffering, Resident Evil. I'll pass, thanks.
