A rather odd part of Blackhawk down affected me quite a bit. Some of the Americans are outside a hummer shooting at people on rooftops, and a Somali pops over the side, fires a single shot with an ak-47. it hits one of the Americans dead-center in the chest and BAM, he's dead. A little later, the same thing happens to the roof gunner on Tom Sizemore's hummer, one shot, right in the throat, instantly dead.

Kind of drove home that in those kids of conflicts, you can be dead in under a second, and not even see it coming. Kind of steals all sense of security.
