I didn't buy it for this reason. I also didn't buy many other games for similar reasons, whether discrimination, marketed in poor taste, etc. and all games I would otherwise play, such as COD: WaW and LOTR Online.
In our society, money carries value and is often the only reason companies listen to people and try to make changes for the better, and I vote with my wallet.
I also refuse to shop at WalMart, even if it means I pay more. I buy American-made products whenever possible. I buy small company products over huge corporate products where possible. I don't buy from companies that have human rights violations, i try to spend money on locally produced products in my community, etc. etc. If I buy a used game - which I do rarely and only if it's just a ridiculously good bargain, not the $5 at Gamestop or something - I ALWAYS buy DLC to give money to that developer, even if it's just a theme or gamerpics.
And it doesn't matter if I am the only one in the world who does it, or whether anyone knows I did it. I know I did it, and that's important to me.

Just like Mr.Wong...You jumped the Gun....This game was not Marketed along with with Card's Name...And Card does not make money from the game sales...the book that he was paid to was released three years ago and is a NY times best seller...Chair Would be pretty stupid to pay Card money from the game revnues especially since Card had nothing to do with the game...The game's plot was written by a comic book writter.....
I don't care how you feel about Card....But your not well Informed about the Game Shadow Complex...

ah, I'm sure Orson Scott Card gets some money from this game. It is basically a prequel to his book. You also hear Card's name associated with this game a lot more than the actual author of the story.
I have to wonder if people know how many games Orson Scott Card has been involved in. You don't hear anybody talking about boycotting sales of the secret of monkey island (of which he was actually responsible for writing some of the script unlike shadow complex).
