  Halo (video game series) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The game was released on November 15, 2001.
Meanwhile, the Covenant slides into civil war and a disgraced Elite commander known as the Arbiter is introduced to the series as a second playable character.
Red vs Blue chronicles the Civil War that supposedly ensues between differing human factions in the time between the two Bungie games, specifically the story of the men and a woman (Tex) posted at both armies' outposts at Blood Gulch, a dried creek bed in the middle of nowhere.

 Guerrilla War (arcade game) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
Originally released for arcades in 1987, Guerrilla War followed the adventures of two unnamed rebel commandos as they raid an unnamed Caribbean Island in order to free it from the rule of an unnamed tyrannical dictator.
Using eight-way rotating joysticks, the game allowed players to move their character in one direction while rotating the joystick in order to shoot in another.
The game is based on the exploits of revolutionary Ernesto "Che" Guevara and the defeat of the Batista regime in Cuba in the late 1950s.

 video.game.maniacs - Men of Valor
The game’s developer 2015 is aiming at throwing as much realistic, gut-wrenching guerilla tactics imaginable giving players a different feel of war all together.
Mainly the realistic guerilla tactics, incredibly strong language, and the fact that villagers are blended in with soldiers.
Since this game is based around such a controversial war, we expect to see a storyline that touches up on the controversy rather than ignore it.

 THE WAR BETWEEN EFFECTS AND MEANING: RETHINKING THE VIDEO GAME DEBATE
Gee writes, “The game often operates within, but at the outer edge of, the learner’s resources, so that at many points the game is felt as challenging but not undoable.” Increasingly, games are designed to be played successfully by players with very different goals and skill sets.
Many current games are designed to be ethical testing grounds; the discussions around such games provide a context for reflection on the nature of violence.
Students created digital superhero characters (like a rock-playing guerilla fighter, a man who transforms into a low-rider, or a peace-loving mermaid), which reflected their own cultural identities and built digital models of their homes and communities as a means of thinking about game space.

The game begins as your spaceship, The Pillar of Autumn, is under siege by Covenant troops and you and the squad of Marines on board are forced to abandon ship and land on Halo.
There are a number of weapons to aid you in your guerilla war against the Covenant; the humans have the assault rifle, fragmentation grenades, a pistol with a 2X scope, a sniper rifle, a shotgun and rocket launcher.
One of the games big draws is the vehicular portions of the game, which is a real blast.

 PC VIDEO GAME REVIEWS... Hostile Waters: Antaeus Rising __________|
The islands that the game takes place on are realized in lush greens and deep browns; a fog sets in over the place during the night, only to be pierced by the light of the morning.
The game seems to have an option to turn off the offensive speech, but I can't imagine playing without it: for people like Ransom, being offensive is part of their nature.
The sense of progression in the game is truly impressive; you'll want to get to the next mission to see what sorts of neat new units you gain and to watch the plot progress.

From the perspective seen in the video, it is clear that the Apache helicopter is not being threatened.
Once a video like this was released to the public, the US military should have jumped and gone on the terrain and found these destroyed vehicles and victims and gathered evidence to justify this horrible scene (assuming they really are what the pilots claimed they were).
The American people did not want to enter the war, and had to be dragged in by the govt at a very late stage when the US saw the economic opportunity of dominating Europe for the next several decades.

 Amazon.com: Halo: Combat Evolved: Computer & Video Games   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
Halo's story, in a nutshell, is basically this: humanity is at war with a collection of races known as the Covenant, who are basically religious fanatics and the gods of which have declared humanity unclean and therefore must be exterminated.
Game play is pretty good, though I don't like the fact that you can't double jump, that is jump on to an object then use that momentum to immediately jump again to a higher position.
It's a good game and it has a lot of elements that I love, but the uninspired level design, bland textures, dated graphics and silly aliens detract a great deal from what had the potential to be one of the greatest games ever made.

 John Conyers, Jr. -- ConyersBlog
The US administration’s treatment of detainees in the “war on terror” continued to display a marked ambivalence to the opinion of expert bodies such as the International Committee of the Red Cross and even of its own highest judicial body.
The blatant disregard for international human rights and humanitarian law in the “war on terror” continued to make a mockery of President George Bush’s claims that the USA was the global champion of human rights.
War crimes in Iraq, and mounting evidence of the torture and ill-treatment of detainees in US custody in other countries, sent an unequivocal message to the world that human rights may be sacrificed ostensibly in the name of security.

This game has a much more in-depth and complete fail than the previous episodes, as commander of the resistance force you have to deal with resource management (i.e the capture of guns etc) and although this isn't always perfectly executed the overall impression is good.
This is a brilliant new add-on it brings a huge number of new options to the game such as introducing the use of handguns and many other new gunsnot previously seen in the game.
The game adds a thrid campaign to the game aswell, Resistance in which you are fighting as the head of resistance forces trying to keep the russians out of your country, the campaign also gives you the option to betray the resistance w to the russians which i was was a nice extra.

Based on previous Bungie games, some have assumed the Covenant have such a passion for taking out humans because in their type of religion, the Humans are seen as the devil, however it might also just be a quest for power.
The theme of this game is generally survival and action, trying to fend off the Covenant and trying to eliminate the humans.

 Why War? Commentary: Bush’s Desolate Imperium
Over 95 percent of Turks opposed the war; and yet Deputy Defense Secretary Paul Wolfowitz had the audacity to blame the Turkish military for not playing "the strong leadership role" that was expected of it (codeword for "putting a gun to the head of democratically elected Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan").
A British draft of a UN resolution authorizing war was certain to garner at least 10 votes (enough to pass), thus leaving France with the dreaded option of vetoing it.
Public support for the war might not have survived a candid presentation of the available intelligence, based as it was on conflicting reports, dubious testimonies by Iraqi defectors, plagiarized PhD theses, forged documentation of uranium sales, misidentification of aluminum tubes, etc. The lack of any smoking gun did not help either.
