I'd have to disagree with that G.
Some may find it hard to understand why they have the Taliban playable... but is it any different to playing the German's in other CoD and MoH games? Or playing as terrorists in MW2? Or playing a hitman in Mafia 2? There are many games where you can/do play the "bad guy", so I don't see any difference except that these "bad guys" are taken from the here and now.
Almost every game/film/book has an antagonist, I don't see this game as being any different.
I'll be getting it, hope it has some CoOp mode, if not: then it's CoD:BlackOps...

I see your point Grunt, and ALL respect to ALL the troops from every country, who are trying to create peace.
but.... Joint Operation has Taliban looking Playable characters also, and i also played as a German nazi in many games, wolfenstein...etc.. actually im playing Company of heroes at the moment where i play as the nazi fighting the allies.
