I also like the embedded reporters and there picture phones so you can see live battle action. It makes it look almost unreal. More like a game then real life. I have to remind myself that people are really dieing and they won't come back.
The thing I like best about the war so far, have been the 3-d maps they are using. They have some really cool graphics on them. I wish I could get those for my school to use in my classroom when we teach map skills. I think it would give a real feeling to the maps.
