C&C Generals: Gulf War

Just played 2 Generals missions. It seems to me that EA tried to squeeze as many Gulf War 2 terms into Zero Hour as possible…embedded reporter, MOAB, USA’s “Shock and Awe” tactics, WMD…the briefing documents in the manual even mentioned about the Iraqi war 10 years ago…And the reporter in the FMVs talk funny…does he really HAVE to say “clear and present danger”?

This is like an alternate universe thing you know. The first game, which took place in the future as opposed to today, made NO mention AT ALL about anything related to Gulf War 2, but the expansion suddenly made so many references. If this is not cashing in on the war, then I don’t know what is…
