Six Days in Fallujah Cancelled 

*Sighs, puts hand over face* Well, y'know why, because noone knows who's won yet. People only want to play a game based on a war if their country won that war, or else, change the ending of the war to make it feel that way. It's nearly as bad as the WAW PETA dog-killing garbage. If America didn't win WWII, they wouldn't make countless games about that. Pffft.

ARRRGH! I ditto those above remarks and despair equally at the idiocy and double-standardness of it all. If films can be controversial, then so can games.

I was discussing video games at the dinner table a few months ago. I was describing to my family a very innovative but controversial idea which for the sake of keeping it from idea stealers I won't mention what it exactly was.
My family argued that it would be deemed offensive to make a game about such a serious subject, they claimed that games are meant for entertainment.

My argument is: Why? Why do games have to be bound by one purpose? Movies are watched for a variety of reasons but can be summed up as "to be either entertained or moved". Why are people so narrow-minded that they can't consider the fact that games can move people? Maybe it's the word "game"... maybe they look at it the wrong way.

Well said! Although, trust me... I can keep a secret, just IM that "innovative idea" to me. I have countless ideas myself which I keep secret that I'm willing to tell you. ;P
