Hollywood has a long history of being a propaganda arm of the US military, government, and intelligence agencies.

And videogames too... At least that was one of the History Channel documentaries said the other day I was zapping (This reads really old, I swear this wasn't 10 years ago or something).

Yeah Activison hires people from the CIA. Couple of executives are former CIA execs. Many of the stories in CoD are bending the truth in the US military’s favor.

ArmA was a military sim for the military before they turned it into a game, and it's still one of the more popular ones.
