Some People Are Protesting New Medal of Honor

[bobusboy]

I'm buying it.

People are hyper sensitive these days. the game doesnt "hurt" anyone and if you dont want to play it then don't but do not tell me that i am not allowed because it offends your delicate sensibilities.

I want to play as a Blackwater contractor(now Xe Services LLC) so I can shoot indiscriminately!!

There are always idiots protesting for everything.
This is a GAME and don't you think that those "talibans" have families too, where's the point? Talibans are killing americans, just as much as americans are killing talibans, this whole protest is dumb and with no sense.
What about Counter-Strike, there are terrorists killing others?
Ohhh i can't wait to play MOH in the role of a nasty taliban, i had enough with all those games, where americans are killing nazis, talibans, chinese, koreans ecc.

it is impossible in this day and age to create anything that doesn't offend atleast 1% of the population. people need to get over this pretentious BS about what offends them and just look the other freakin way.

 

[captaincharisma]

hey its a good idea. its like games like half life: counter strike where you take the roll of the army going after Gordon freeman. they are just doing it too soon. i am sure if the cold war was still going on people would be protesting games where you play the Russians

At the hands of the Taliban, children have lost fathers and wives have lost husbands...

Do not worry , I will take the US Special Operations Command soldier (aka. infidel) side and eliminate as many taliban fighters as bullets in my rifle.

Bad Company 2, your Russians killing US Soldiers.
Modern Warfare 2, Russians killing US Soldiers.
Medal of Honor (For Play Station 1) Multiplayer included Nazi's v. Americans.

I'm a soldier, not a fobbit, and people like us will play the game regardless if its taliban, mujahadeen, or Master Chief. GET OVER IT PEOPLE.

[citation][nom]COLGeek[/nom]I am a soldier and have served 25+ years. This is a game. Let me put this as delicately as possible.....who cares. It is a game. 'Nuf said.[/citation]

You know you could've stated ur point without the BS lol

 

[chronicbint]

The game is poor anyway going on the multiplayer beta, don't really care.

 

[joebob2000]

[citation][nom]scook9[/nom]I agree.....I am glad we treat the taliban that we can shoot like dogs that no one could possibly care about.....it is not like many of them have families as well(obviously sarcasm)Just another example of propaganda and censoring from our government.....[/citation]

Except the government realize this is a clear first amendment issue and instead attack it with spineless quips like "Surely no retailer would be tasteless enough to sell it"... I wish I lived in the UK and could open a game store to sell nothing but this title. I would make a fortune, and the protesters can stuff it if they think some namby pamby plea like "oh but it shows bad thing happening to good people" is going to stop FREEDOM.

At the hands of the Taliban, children have lost fathers and wives have lost husbands...

and i am sure the US army soldiers in Iraq and Afghanistan that were the families of the people in the Taliban too not to mention many innocent children and innocent people in those places too. what about them?

or is your attitude praise America and screw everyone else in the world

 

[danimal_the_animal]

OMG!

it's a game!!!!!!

either way these games are teaching young kids about killing no matter what side they choose.

killing is killing.

in WWI and WWII religions were killing those of the same religion on the opposite side.

you guys are a bunch of complaining wienies!

 

[stuckless]

It's amazing that almost every comment on this site is pro against the censorship of games like this.

It's odd that our countries are still being run the way they are when ther is obviously a large group of people that feel the same way on this, and similar topics.

 

[Fetal]

what a joke! f! them! these must be 'haters'... f off, cuz here comes my fav game! step aside!

 

[xpgamer]

This is hilarious in my mind. Why? simple no one cares about protesting about a game because if medal of honor turns out to have good gameplay then most likely people will buy it and play it regardless of who is fighting who. I mean come on look at modern warfare 2. People still bought the game when there was Russians you had to fight against or be on the Russians side when your online. In my mind I sure people are going to forget about this bullshit when medal of honor comes out. >.

A Haiti Earthquake game sounds awesome... As long as we get to play both the earthquake AND the people who were killed by it. Also being a hurricane would be some WICKED game-play. I think its fair to compare natural disasters with war-games.

Another commenter put my original thoughts the most succinctly. This is absolutely no different from the last 12 generations of war first person shooters. It has and probably will always be either Counter Terrorist vs Terrorist or Earth vs Alien race. If you're so narrow minded that a noun versus a pronoun makes all the difference in the world to you, then there really is nothing anyone can say to help.

 

[Tmanishere]

I think we have bigger issues in hand if we have problem with non-biased game being protested.

 

[sagansrun]

So, Innocentbystander; you would deny me the option of playing this game simply because you dont think it's appropriate? Give me a break! Who the hell do you think you are telling me what I can do and cant do regarding game play? If you do not like it, do not buy it.

i am ok with the opposite roles and the issue about the taliban killing soldiers from both contries is true but remember that killing go both ways

 

[2real]

I am an alien and I'm offended when master chief slaughters my race. I'm a headcrab and I'm offended when gorden freeman bashes my brothers with a crowbar.
I'm a black person and I'm offended when Chris Redfield killed my family.
