War Games & Ethics Panel - http://vimeo.com/user21244475/review/112782725/c61971d545

--- Quote ---"Warfare, on one scale or another, has long been a common theme of games, from Chess and Go to Call of Duty and Civilisation. War is also common in other media, such as film and literature, yet rarely do we see games which call to question the morality of war in the manner of Apocalypse Now, Slaughterhouse-5 or Catch-22. Why does this gap exist? It is clear that people enjoy ethically challenging works; our struggle with moral ambiguity is what makes these titles great. Our games seem shallow in comparison. How do we change this?" [source]
