This is crazy. Hindu extremists are crazy !
Hindu extremists burned down a 3 million dollar statue of Charlie Chaplin in India because Charlie Chaplin was a Christian ! So what, you could make a hanuman game if you wanted to. Indians are so full of themselves.
"India is the best, India have the best cricketers", bla bla bla bla. Indians need to geta life. (most of them anyway, some people are very good, but some are crazy).
So a game should be cancelled because some extremists don't like it ? This is crazy, i bet most people don't care about this stuff. Oh and Hinduism isn't the oldest religion in the world, Buddhism is. Hinduism spread during the Gupta period while Buddhism prevailed from the 5th century BC.

Buddha (Siddartha Gautama) was a Hindu, you do know that, right?

umm.. buddism is a offshoot of hinduism. Buddha was hindu. :)

and taliban blew up the twin statues of buddha in bamiyan. does that mean all muslims r screw ups?

did you also know that during the tsunami nuns on the western coasts of India offered to help the affected witth biscuts and water ONLY if they CONVERTED to christianity?

As for Hindus being extremist have you seen the album cover of nine lives by aerosmith. decapitating hindu gods and putting in pictures of cats: if hindus were extremists we'd all know what would have happened to aerosmith by now...

Hindu, muslim, jewish or christian, any sort of religious nut is a waste of space..

I saw the  trailer of the game on youtube. Its hardly offensive, except for the fact that it has a horrible frame rate.



Doubt is not a pleasant condition, but certainty is absurd.

b. a nintendo developed game that has a "M rating"

c. redesgined PS controller

d. SEGA back in the console business

e. M$ out of the OS business

There are 900 million Hindus in the world. I'm sure most of them couldn't care less whether Hanuman was in a game or not.

Hindus have urged Sony Corporation to withdraw the newly released “Hanuman: Boy Warrior” video game for PlayStation2, saying it trivializes the highly revered deity of Hinduism.

Oh no, it's not as games and other media have trivialised every major religion more times than I can count

As for the LBP pissing off Muslims thing, you've got it the wrong way around. The song was pulled because it was pissing off those who hate the Muslim faith. The song was written by a Muslim, about Muslim things.



meh , how hard is it to make a game without religion stuff

Exactly!

Im Hindu...and i dont really care if they use Hanuman in the game or not.

 

 

To MetalGearSolid_4ever:

You need to calm down mate.. Not all Hindus are extremists..actually probabaly 99% of hindus dont care. But there will always be that 1% in any religion that will blow up.

Im sure if god was used in a game/song/movie some single or select few idiots will try and make a big fiasco about it, same with a Hindu, Muslim etc etc if there religion was used in something.
