Gamers rise up! Today, Kenny and Virgil finally talk about a video game. In the 2000s, the military was facing a crisis: teens thought the military and dying in an imperialist war effort was cringe. And in the midst of a PR crisis, a national disaster and Ludacris’ birthday, the game America’s Army was born. A game meant to train your child for the War On Terror from the comfort of your home. Your favorite they-devils take a look on how the game was made, how it was played, and what exactly, the military was trying to say to the youth of America in the wake of 9/11. note: our website is going through a redesign ! soon you will find all our citations and a bunch of other mind expanding content there Join our Discord!
