Hopefully Sony make a loss next year and go under. Darren, Warrington, England Religious nutter ^^ |
I was recently having quite a big discussion with out of friends who is religious but not CoE. We agreed that it was wrong of the developers to do what they did, as in take the likeness of a major religious building, which has owners and copyright laws attached and make a CG replica and then put it into the video game without their consent. What he and I didn't agree on was the fact that it shouldn't have been done at all (I think it's fine, be does not) and that that because it is fake, it has nothing to do with real life Manchester.
Manchester, compared to most UK cities, has a gun problem (nothing compared to US cities mind you) and anything that seems to 'promote' the use of them in well known and religious landmarks is going to cause issues. They could have made it a small generic Church and no one would have said anything.
Don't assume that person is a religious nutter as i know people who think it is wrong for the sake of copyright laws as well as violent video game being set in a major religious building in the UK.
Hmm, pie.
