Game Lets You Recreate Osama's Death Raid
Boom, headshot!
With the popularity of shooters like Call of Duty, Modern Warfare, Medal of Honor and the Battlefield Bad Company series, there's clearly a continued fascination with modern day scenarios.
It's only natural, then, that there be an Osama bin Laden shooter. Kuma War got its 107th and final episode, which is a mission on the bin Laden compound. You can grab that mission here if you've got the game.
Perhaps even more interesting is the browser-based game Bin Laden Raid, coming from a site called News Gameplay that hopes to engage an audience by letting them experience it in an interactive fashion.
Jeremy Alessi, one of the game's developers, told Wired that his team finished the game in a 25-hour marathon coding session.
“The layout itself is not factual, just logical from the information at the time,” Alessi told Wired. The developers pieced together the map from Google Maps and made the layout based on the video footage released to news organizations.
“Running through the sim gives a perspective that cannot be communicated any other way,” he says. “[Players] witness firsthand what was seen from the ground and perhaps a few similar thoughts are shared between the person who experienced the event for real and the person who just used the sim.”

still i can see this mission being in a future call of duty game

what, going in with 2 helicopters, shooting 4 guards, shooting a woman in the leg and headshotting a single guy?
It better be a bonus mission or massively padded out...
Hmmm... wonder if you can capture and not kill bin Laden? Either that or drop the gun and just punch the living daylights out of him til he doesn't move any more...
First one looked decent enough, the second looked like garbage. Either way, I sincerely doubt it was quite that simple in real life.

yup, a single unarmed guy
actually the latest derivation of the story says, there was no armed personnel and Osama was simply unarmed. The mission was to murder since no solid evidence was there to prosecute him i.e forensic evidence.
yup, a single unarmed guy
YES... a single unarmed Terrorist!

They can always charge him for talking shit on TV ! Just like what Tina have been doing on SNL.
isn't htere already a counter strike mod for this?
YES... a single unarmed Terrorist!
or Freedom Fighter depending on which side of the fence you're on
Are people really going to call this operation 'murder'? He was the leader of the most dangerous militant group in the world. A group which is responsible for tens of thousands of civilian and military deaths, and constantly threatens more violence. In a kill or be killed situation, they can send in murder squads and 'assassinate' every one of the bastards; everyone will be safer for it.
I'm looking forward to the first Arma2 mission that recreates this.
I think Medal of Honor 2 would sell out if you get to kill Osama in the end.

No way, this is easily the new $15 DLC for Black Ops.
Now I joke about it, but watch Bobby K. say to Treyarch, "Make it happen".

well it is call of duty after all. they always have lots of filler

They would probably replace the guards with juggernaut like endurance that can move at normal speed. This will obviously be a timed run because Pakistani military will gun them after certain time limit.

The beauty of the mission will be having to shoot and kill/wound everyone exactly the way they were in real life. So you better make sure you shoot that unarmed woman in the leg! Then for bonus points you have to wrap Osama's body up, recite some Islamic prayers on your mic (Mic obviously required) then push the body overboard while cracking jokes and shouting insults (again mic required). All this for $15 what a steal!
Missing civilians... optional combat mode in which OBL turns into the Scorpion king.

Bonus mission? The way single-player games are getting shorter it'll be the entire SP campaign!
I think that Osama is a mean, dirty son of a bitch and many more bad things but I think that this sucks! Yeah, making this into a game and wishing his death makes us no different than him and all bastards that follow him!
or Freedom Fighter depending on which side of the fence you're on
Terrorist...there are no more fences.
yup, a single unarmed guy
A single unarmed guy that murdered nearly 4,000 people.
Who cares about Bin Laden, as a villain he's way behind Ratko Mladic for example. It's just that Americans are cowards who overreacted and ruined their own economy (and a couple of countries) just to get this one guy.
It was only a matter of time, lol!
YES... a single unarmed Terrorist!
even if he's a terrorist, he's still unarmed & i'm sure SEAL training does include taking down unarmed person with either leg shot or even taser... just because he's terrorist doesn't mean he deserve automatic death sentence...... talk about land of the free
They would probably replace the guards with juggernaut like endurance that can move at normal speed. This will obviously be a timed run because Pakistani military will gun them after certain time limit.
OBL will summon the dead fighter spirits & Chuck Norris casts the AOE tempest then the Paladin SEALs will rush in & slaughter the rest.... Chuck will then cast a lightning bolt to the woman's leg & crushing prison on OBL......

Wow, so to you killing innocent babies and children is no different than killing a mass murderer and possibly saving countless lives. I wonder if you would be so almighty self-righteous if your child had been killed in one of bin Laden's terrorist plots.
"Call of Duty, Modern Warfare, Medal of Honor and the Battlefield Bad Company series"
cod mw is 1 single game. the comma is unneeded. or specify the franchise or the game itself. don't do both.
It doesn't matter what Obama does. Even if he made gold out of his own Urine or discovered the cure for cancer - Fox-fake-news heads would still bitch and piss and moan.
They complained he attacked, they complained he should have bombed (which means total loss of intel) the complain he needs to attack Libya for freedom - then attack him for bombing Libya. Attacked him for not including GOP ideas into the Health Care Reform - then Attacked their OWN Health Care Reform when they included it.
It never ends.
They really should all choke on their own teabags.
PS: There is a high chance that OBL had a gun... he's in a room full of weapons.
Think anyone here would trust the guy to not have gun or a bomb on him?
And to the son and others who are upset the guy got a bullet in his head and was dumped in the ocean. That was too good for him. Being fed to pigs alive would be more deserving.
He's killed thousands of Americans and untold thousands of other Muslims. What proper death did he do to the women and children? Oh yeah, he is somehow a "man".
But yeah, he is just that... nothing more.
yup, a single unarmed guy

are you people retarded?
