I just remembered about that one game that was being worked on last year where you play as a soldier in some big battle where the US got slaughtered. It was supposed to have a big horror factor thing to it, but then all the mums bitched about it because their sons died in the battle so EA canceled it.

EA wasn't making it and it was a game based on Operation Phantom Fury, aka The Second Battle of Fallujah. The US didn't get slaughtered, there were 655 casualties, only 95 of them were deaths, rest were just wounded. There were close to 3k insurgent casualties, half of them deaths and the other half of them captured.
It was one of the most important victories for Coalition forces during the war in iraq, get your facts straight. The game was being made by Konami.
