Forums - Nintendo - Tekken Tag 2 to be modified due to use of 'Allah' in Saudi Arabia stage

I don't see an issue here. It will offend some so might as well just remove it. THat's all. It's their fault anyways for using it even without knowing what it meant. I'm glad Harada is proactive in responding at least

If you dont follow the religion at all, why do you include yourself in the "embarrased people" group? ¬_¬.    An adherent of Islam is called a Muslim, but you say you are Muslim and dont care about Islam?? Interesting.

I think you should choose your words better lol.



And my fellow muslims continue to make the rest of us look like assholes.

Seriously, you can put two sticks together and it would look like the word allah. That's how simple the spelling of it is.

If they dont know what it says, they why the FUCK they included it in the game?? I wondered the same thing with the COD map. If the developers really dont know what does it means why put it in the game at all??

I will go crazy and say that they are putting subliminal messages in the games.

Gee, here's a crazy thought: Arabic, to those that dont know the language, looks like a bunch of squiggly lines or a piece of artwork, as was the case in *both* instances, i.e. they almost certaily didn't know it was Arabic.



Hahaha I can't wait till the South Park game. When people complain they will be like "Nope, not changing it."

As long as it doesn't say "fuck A****" or "got hell A****" I would just let it in there.
I haven't seen Buddah removed from the Street Fighter stage either :P

oh, did not know that.  Thx



*Please put the following video on mute. The purpose of this video is to show how ridiculous some muslims can be.

This is just proof of how ridiculous things can get. Muslims taking photos or still photos of events and slapping the word allah on anything that slightly resembles or doesn't resemble the word itself. like I said. The word is unique in how it's spelled in the arabic language, and it can resemble almost anything that has curves.

I get why the toilet one was considered offensive, even though it was just oversight and I doubt anybody at Infinity Ward/Activision knows a great deal of Arabic and that they even realised what they probably saw as marks were actually letters. Considering MW2 has been out for coming up to 3 years thought people would have taken offence sooner.

Again with this one, to me it looks like its been drawn on. Its so small on the full image I'm surprised anyone can make it out. Do they just trawl through games to find any image that can eb considered vaguely offensive?

I think you should read what I wrote better. I said that I don't follow the religion as much as most do. Meaning I don't do things like pray and I eat all types of food (Muslims can't eat pork). I was born a Muslim therefore I consider myself to be a Muslim. I feel embarrased because when things like this happens, the muslim religion as a whole gets bashed when it's really just the extremists making a big deal out of such a little thing. Also, where in that sentence did I say I don't care about Islam?? Mind fucked right now by your illiteracy.
