good, its a pathetic war scenario to base a game apon.

Another victim of political correctness.

good riddance

This doesn't mean the end of the game though.

Atomic games just need to search a new publisher.

Not surprising, except for the part where Konami thought it was a good idea to begin with. Then again... Rock Revolution.

@Zlejedi, Seriously? It was an absolute slaughter and if it was going to be accurate, which it wouldn't have been, it would have encouraged lots of complaints about shooting unarmed civilians or accidently shooting them when entering houses for insurgents. "how boring, no one shoots at you, what a shit game"

And if they had fictionalized the conflict, human rights groups would have complained about the out right lies and propaganda directly contradicting the reality of what happened. Its a hot issue and Konami were smart to stay away from it.

That rock got hot quickly I guess. Still, Konami were only publishing, right? So it might still appear again with a new backer.

Interesting how quickly they dropped it - I can only assume they were directly bombarded with complaints and not just from individuals.

Woo hoo! This is a game that didn't need to be released.

Wow... am I actually the only one who is disgusted by this? Where the f*** is media freedom during a time like this?

But as somebody mentioned before this war will also get raped hundreds of times after a couple of decades, and it will probably e at least as popular as today is the Vietnam war or WW2...

Not sure what you mean. Atomic has the freedom to make their game, and Konami has the freedom to publish it or not.
