I think we're going to see a lot more of this happening because videogames are a lot more relevant in the world than they used to be even relative to other media and entertainment, and in spite of their accuracy to real life, a lot of what militaries do is just posturing and giving off an image of strength, so things like how well a tank or plane perform in a videogame with a global multi million audience does matter, because politics are downstream from culture and countries don't want to actually have to prove they're strong and capable.
