The largely-unspoken, and uneasy, tension between the United States and China may have just gotten a little more apparent. A new video game sponsored the People’s Liberation Army (PLA) now allows players to target and shoot American commandos.

Wired.com reports the new game, “Glorious Mission,” was developed by China’s Giant Network Technology Co. It sends “soldiers’ off to basic training and then sets them out on various missions. For the most part, it’s modeled after many American-made shooting games. But the comparisons may end at the graphics once you read this:

But there’s one key difference between the American and Chinese “shooters.” Where the bad guys in America’s Army are generic Middle Eastern or Central Asian insurgents and terrorists, the enemy in Glorious Mission is apparently the U.S. military. A TV report offers glimpses of an American-made Apache gunship crashing in flames.

I have Medal of Honor on PS3 and the chinks are in there. Shot em all and went on to the next level. I seriously wished they invaded because just like Red Dawn when Powers Boothe nicely stated that 2 of the baddest dudes on the block will eventually have to slug it out.

They are only making a ripoff of the game add on to Fallout 3 which by this years standards is now obselete. They would have done better by ripping of "Frontlines-Fuel of War" where the scenario is of chinese and russian forces try to take over the middle east to try to seize the oilfields and the US forces are trying to prevent this.
