The blurring of reality and the virtual world has come full circle. Just over twenty years ago I can remember watching the first stirrings of the Gulf War, arguably the first television war, and one where the images of missile strikes were commonplace.

From rogue-likes to the newer Souls series, there's a solid subsection of games that are purposefully difficult to a mind-boggling, controller-throwing degree. In recent months we've of course received Dark Souls III, but that's not the only new game that will test your perseverance and punish you for making the slightest mistake.
no Ninja gaiden black or Ninja gaiden 2 (x360 version)?... also Demon Sousl >dark souls ..
Hardcore Gamer - This week’s Humble Bundle focuses on the work of Bohemia Interactive.
Nissan USA’s Twitter account goofed up by believing that a couple of screenshots from (the admittedly gorgeous) Driveclub were real-life photographs. And although their tweet was a cover for their own mistake, it is also partially the truth: video games have been getting increasingly realistic. There have been quite a few other instances of games being mistaken for real life content, in some rather more serious situations. So in this list, we take a look at some of the few times games were mistaken for real life.

What I love more than the viewpoints are all the hiding spots on the buildings. All the same and too many of them. Looks kinda weird, but apparently not suspicious enough.
Lol and these are the people who are giving us news the human race are hopeless
Funny stuff and im glad these weren't blocked behind 5 different pages.
those game shots of Amra II are pretty dam close to the real photos.
Just think how even closer Arma III will look next to real photos.
With the upcoming releases of teh HD7000/GTX600 games should be using more and more Ray Tracing thus further erasing the line between photos and graphics.
so the question is:
can mental exertion reach the same effects of emotional trauma resulting in PTSD?
Arma II
Current King of military shooters.
Only to be suceeded by Arma III.
Arma II has been out since 3 years and it looks that realistic.
I wish more devs would make use of PC hardware like that, sadly most of them dumb their games down for the ancient technology in current consoles.
