Oh back to the issue at hand. It is currently being recalled, where a new version will be released with the government's approval and that will exclude "No Russia". With that all said this still has the possibility of not being rereleased due to the fact that Russia and America are at war (in the game) and they would have to have Russia's approval.

Wow, would you lend me your nonsense generator machine you're obviously using? I'm loosing faith in humanity, please, tell me you're just a troll. Should I report you then? Nah, I guess I'm not, since this kind of trolling isn't bannable here ^_^

@realill

It wasn't cut out, it just has been disabled in PC version of the game, you may enable it legally if you want to.

I am not sure there are any goverment approval there. I believe retailers just playing safe side here.

I do not think Russian goverment controls video games much %).

Well, that may be true, since other means of getting games always exist, but what I stated is based on the what was originally said.

Looks like you need the healing powers of New Super Mario Bros. Wii!

But yeah, I watched my brother play it and left. It was just very uncomfortable to watch people hooting and hollering over the fact that they're "killing" innocent people. "Awesome!" "Watch this as I knife them!" "Don't let him get away haha!" *Hi5's all around*

If that's cool, then I guess I should be content with being a geek.

I thought u were from Israel?

I wouldn't blame them for being upset about it.

I personally didn't kill anyone until the people with guns showed up and started firing at me. Instead, I had fun shooting the environment until we made our way outside.

The luggage bags spewed clothes everywhere when you shot them, lol. I feel sad for the TV's too... I made sure every one was destroyed.

The Russians should actually be happy to be used as the bad guys.

Who doesn't want to be seen as a tough guy and get lots of respect?

Well I have been playing NSMB Wii and it is quite healling haha.  Fun game with the right kind of difficulty.  Platformers is where the heart is at.

But when I play a game like MW2 I don't view myself as being the good guy or bad guy or shooting innocent people or not... I see it as digital animations and me controlling their actions.  It's not real so it is hard for me to personally feel like I am doing something wrong.  However, I do get the message the scene is trying to display and that is there is no good and bad in war.  Both sides do things that are sickening and morally wrong. 

Actually for the most part, I found the level to be more offensive to Americans, if anyone, because most Americans don't like to accept that their government (namely CIA) has doen some immoral unreputable things.  Things like this would be one of them (of course here there was another reason why it was going on haha).  But the level is their to make the point that both sides are going to do whatever it costs to win losing all moral obligations.  This is the reality of war displayed in a video game.  If you have a problem with this scene then why don't you have a problem with any video game that displays war.  Let's not be timely with our objections.
