Yeah but such games don't really have a main character and celebrities are above the realm of normal. Even blatant racists forget that the running back is Black when he makes a TD!

I was just using that as an example to illustrate the fact that games these days appeal to a much broader audience than they once did. Plus, games in general going all the way back to the beginning are pretty abstract, it's only in recent generations that games have begun to present specific cultural influences or references.
Still, aside from a couple examples given like Americans being portrayed as the good guys against Russians/Arabs/etc in war games, i see about 95% of games out there appealing to virtually anyone regardless of race or creed, and the other 5% well u could just as easly swap whatever western theme is presented in said game and take the core gameplay and dress it up for whoever your intended audience is.
