Red Cross says War Games should be bound by the Geneva convention

Rolling over people with tanks:  Good fun.

Or not.

Right, it's so impersonal.

Was pretty fun in Vice City.

Just out of curiosity, how would they enforce GC rules in combat games?  Invulnerable NPCs?  Court martial cutscenes after completing levels?    A mock military tribunal to drop the banhammer on "convicted" violators?

I, for one, would love to see an interstitial maze entitled "Escape from Leavenworth" added to America's Army.

Haul gamers before a war crimes tribunal.

Now I have an image of the ore trucks from Command & Conquer scooping up people and taking them back to the refinery.  It's pretty great.

The game was "Universe at War".  It wasn't very good, though.  One of the factions had these tripod harvesters where they zap up civilians, cows, houses, etc

A virtual war crimes tribunal would seem appropriate 

One can imagine a game where the protagonist gets back from a mission and finds himself in a shitstorm for being a war criminal. Imagine a hotbar full of legal and rhetorical skills that you press as the court martial proceeds

The skill "Lying" would cover it all.
