Leaked Modern Warfare 2 Footage Causes Outrage

Posted by Soulskill on from the if-this-bothers-you-avoid-the-dexter-game dept.

eldavojohn writes "Game Politics makes note of criticism over leaked footage from the upcoming Modern Warfare 2 release. (Spoiler warning.) Footage shows the player engaged in killing civilians with terrorists (relevant video begins at about 1:50, second source in case of DMCA). Several game sites are asking if this is taking things too far. Probably just advertising at work, but the footage is indeed controversial — the question remains whether or not it is out of context."

    Very few people would eat meat if they knew what it actually meant.

    Even the word meat itself gives you a psychological protection from the thought of eating animals.
