Modern Warfare 2 angers Christians

[spittledip]

I think the only word you put any effort into was the last one. Whatever is very appropriate.

You gotta read the article. Fundamentalist christians dont give a damn about ratings systems. They want offensive stuff to not exist. They want this game banned or edited so heavily its not the same.

Whatever

Eek, this might belong in P&N. I live in the same state as these guys and I hadn't even heard this rubbish until now.

/agree [belongs in P&N].

I want to talk about games for CHRIST'S sake

Thus why games have a rating system... nuff said dammit else ya'all are going straight to HELL [which..btw - God killed more people than Satan - so...stick that up your religious pie hole!]

Crazy Right wings are as bad as crazy left wings.

Call for ban

lol @ all offended religious groups.

Sold 6 million copies in November in the United States alone (and that's just the consoles). Not sure what the PC sales numbers are - I think it's safe to assume that just about everyone that would want to play this game already has a copy. What are they trying to do, possibly reach out to a couple of hundred people incapable of rational thought?

Outragefail.

Well established cause and effect my ass.

lmao yes I am sure jesus wants us to burn DVD copies of Modern Warfare 2. It is high on his list of things for us to get done before his return in 2012.

Ugh, a few bad apples can ruin the whole bunch. Just look what Olds has done to OT!

The influential Christian group the Maine Christian Civic League

Wow! I bet their sphere of influence covers at least THREE Bangor neighborhoods.

• Apparently the Japanese have problems with the Maine Christian Civic League too: Activision will reportedly release a censored version of Modern Warfare 2 in Japan that punishes you for shooting civilians. http://www.pcworld.com/article/1840...in_censored_version_of_modern_warfare_2.html/
  
• I'd post more, but you might as well just go read the Wikipedia page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Controversies_surrounding_Call_of_Duty:_Modern_Warfare_2

My conclusion: you're singling out one specific religious group because you got a bug up your butt regarding that particular religion. Get over it.

I'm boycotting MW2 as a matter of PC online multiplayer gaming principle and my opposition to consolization, and while I can't say I've ever had much interest in MW1 or MW2 at all, this talk about its angering religious fanatics does make me want to buy it.
