Do Germans play World War II computer games?

Question

And if they do, do they play the Nazi's and always lose?

To clarify, for those with less than one brain cell out there...I mean modern day computer games like Call of Duty or Medal of Honour where the winners are always the British and Americans. I know that there weren't computer games in 1945. Duh.

Answer 1

LOL! I was just thinking about this as I was picking off Nazi's heads with an M1 Garand in Brothers In Arms. Do they find this entertaining too?

WW2 was the most supported war in American history. Literally, there weren't really anyone that protested after Japan hit Pearl Harbor. It was referred to as the Good War and I think the reason why the franchise is so succesful is because we get a first hand look into what it was like and emotional feel like we're a part of something important. As for Germans, I don't necessarily think that killing Nazi's would necessarily appeal. No one wants to play a game knowing that they're ultamitely going to be the losers.

On Band of Brothers 2, you can play as the nazis in multiplay modes, that was interesting. But I don't think it appeals especially since not every german was a nazi, there was a big group within the Germans that opposed Hitler.

I don't imagine it would sell very well iff someone made a game to where you were Al Quiada killing American soldiers...so it's probably the same for the Germans in that regard

Answer 2

No, actually the Germans regret World War II. The Germans were extremely traumatized after World War II. If you mention the subject to a German, they will get at least close to tears.

Answer 3

on the Nintendo Wii, you could purely get Kino Der Toten :( I heard theres DLC though, coming for the wii ultimately. in case you look contained in the guide less than save then it talks about DLC, upload on content cloth, and Nintendo factors and the decision of responsibility Black Ops save. If there wasn't any DLC coming for the Wii then the guide wouldnt say that ! Sorry bout that :P. The wii don't have "5" or the "pentagon it is 5" yet Kino Der Toten meets my needs for now haha. I purely wish contained in the destiny 5 will come to the wii or something lol. Theres a hidden song on the different variations i imagine, you would possibly want to locate 3 peices of meteroids. i got here across all 3 of them , yet on the Wii it says " get waiting for a wonder! "

Answer 4

I have seen many germans playing Online on WWII shooters. They play on both sides, just like I do.

They are games, WWII was a long time ago.

If you want to play as an Arab you can do that in Battlefield 2.

Answer 5

Yes they do play games AND they do enjoy it. Not every german is a damn nazi. Learn to not catagorize people. I'm referring to the people answering the question, not the person asking the question. As far as them making Nazi based games, there are some, but they are fan made, not company made.

Answer 6

They play Red Orchestra all the time. Course its the Germans against the Russians but yeah I see them in there all the time. Good players too.

Answer 7

Err there were no computer games in World War II

Answer 8

I don't imagine they find games such as call of duty or medal of honour as entertaining as we do, or maybe they have their own version where the nazi's win :)

Answer 9

It's just a game.

No different than playing Master Chief, a Wookie or a robot or a yellow ball eating dots.

Answer 10

i think the generation who lost the second world war are too old to play computer games
