I found this interesting. A discussion by a gamer using suicide tactics in Halo3 and the thought process that leads him to do so. It definately relates to AH when compared to HOace pilots and DiveBombAuger players. He attributes a greater understanding of the psychology of terrorism to his experiences in the game.
