The funnest thing about games is destruction. I'll admit in Mercenaries 2, I used missiles to blow up buildings. It was fun. Does that make me a terrorist? =(

 

Don't tell me those were surgical strikes... Not one casualty ?

You lying corporate-state-terrorist !

Next thing you'll admit eating lots of mushrooms before going to your girlfriends'.

 

 

 

You gamers make me sick !!

it wouldn't be a fun game. The attacks on 9-11 weren't long WWII was longer
Thats why there are games based on WWII

Only If I get to be a NYC Fire Fighter...Out here we actually reespect those guys......I don't think they should make the game though...Dude...those guys ran towards the building as it was going down.....They are just awesome
As a New yorker..and Someone who expirienced 9/11 first hand..I can say It feels stupid to be gamer....



 



Its completly different to a War game.

Terrorism is not sually soldier vs soldier. Innocents are targetted and killed - 9/11

War 90% of the time= soldier vs soldier



I wouldn't. And to people saying it's hypocritical if you play a WWII game, I would beg to differ. Fighting armed combatants and the slaughter of innocents is very different to me. I would never play a game as a Nazi in a Concentration Camp. I don't like playing games like GTA because I don't like killing innocent people, hell I didn't like killing the deer in Elder Scrolls: Oblivion. In war games, it is usually portrayed in a respectful, admirable way, and your enemies tend to be opposing soldiers, not wives, husbands and children. I just would feel too disrespectful to the people who died a couple miles from my home.



My Games of 2011:

The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword

Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim

Super Mario 3D Land

Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception

People get to sensitive and forget that its just a videogame. A lot of things are worse than 9/11 and like I always say, if it bothers you stay away from it, dont play it, but there is nothing wrong with making or playing it.



My first reaction is to reject it. But if I kept hearing countless reviews about how great in is, I might look into it.
If in interviews the creators started saying, "We did not make this game to disrespect... We wanted to help... We are donating part of our funds to Iraq Vetrans... 911 families previwed and approve of this game" then I would consider it.

If the reviewers said, "We our influences from CHYUII's favorite games" and the reviewers said, "Yep, CHYUII's favorite game are definitely influential to this game. CHYUII would love to play this game if only he could get past the subject matter."

THEN I would buy the game but play it in secret.



The only other way I would play this game is if it was made 30 years from next year.
