Forums - Gaming - Left 4 Dead is racist!

Haven't played the game, but I doubt that there is racism in the game...Now if you tell me there is discrimination against the ps3 and maybe the Wii we can talk -)

If anything Punch-Out!! is the most racist game to come out recently: puny Frenchman, drunk Russian, cheating Irishman, Canadian woodsman.



Signature goes here!

Hmm... I wonder if you would get sued for necrophilia if you just would decide to not kill the black zombies...



Oh my good dear lord.

I hate this guy - confirmed



                            

Here is a link to the editorial.  If anyone wants to read it/respond to this idiot.

At least it wasn't in the actual paper, not that the Chronicle is very good anyway...  Well to be fair, it seems his problem is more with the setting in both games rather than the races, but the editorial is still pretty ridiculous.

But this isn`t nearly as bizarre as Resident Evil 5:
The story takes place in middle Africa. The people there is of course black, but some c*** stated a white man shooting black zombies in a middle African country is rasicm, so Capcom made 1/3 of the zombies arabic (looking like Saddam Hussain), 1/3 asian and the rest black.

Of course I`d rather shoot Chris Redfield any day. He is poorly created in RE5 and incredibly annoying.
I miss the original real-life actor from the first RE.



We already had to go through this before. Anybody remember Resident Evil 5 and it's controversy. It's the same here. Some bigshot journalist trying to stir things up.



If he was complaining about any of the Ready to Rumble games, he'd be justified lol



can't wait for Track Season 2009/2010, guna beast out!

Travis Touchdown ERECTION CONFIRMED!

Wait a second.

Couldn't also argue that the game is racist if it didn't include black zombies?



"We'll toss the dice however they fall,
And snuggle the girls be they short or tall,
Then follow young Mat whenever he calls,
To dance with Jak o' the Shadows."

on a side note, any word that only one race is allowed to say is also racism, believe it or not.
