There used to be a charity called the Spastic Society in the UK, helping people suffering from
cerebral palsy. However playgrounds were full of children running round calling each other spastics when they did something stupid. It became an insult and the charity had to change its name. Partially because kids found out about the charity's name and thought it was hilarious.

It's basically like the game calling you a retard or saying "Why are you so crap, are you disabled?". They could get away with it but it's very bad PR.
