No. Sept 11 nearly 10 years ago and 7/7 were nearly 6 years ago.

Its not like its 6 months after.

It's still too recent. We've just had it all brought to the surface again with BL killing and the 7/7 inquest

Games like this do not offend the families of the deceased, unless they are going to start playing them. Which they aren't.

Sean Cassidy, whose son Ciaran, 22, died in the Piccadilly Line blast, raged: “This is insensitive. What happened shouldn’t be used as entertainment. This brings back bad memories for everybody, not just victims but people who travel on the Tube every day.”

put something in a book and no one gives a ****, put it in a movie and it's artistic, put it in a game and it's the beginning of the ****ing apocalypse

Censorship is bad. For whatever reason.

But why is it too soon?

This "Blockbuster" came out in 2006

Seriously though, bad taste!

I would love for a rep from the developers to come forward and say
"Hey all publicity is good publicity, Dont forget to pick up your copy in stores near you soon." *Cool Guy Wink*

He'd get legendary status instantly

If it upsets you so much - don't play it.

People who travel on the tube every day? Who believes that ********?

I find it incredibly hard to believe the average londoner is petrified he'll be caught in a terrorist incident while travelling on the tube. No, he has more realistic threats to worry about like pickpockets or the tube simply being crowded.

Much like how I don't get on a plane and sit there paranoid that some terrorist is going to hijack my EasyJet flight and crash it into Big Ben.

Things related to real life events are ALWAYS going to cause someone distress. But only ever those directly or indirectly involved.

If we ban games with act's of terrorism in because of real life terrorism, are we not letting the terrorists win by them changing our way of life?

They should all group together under the 'mothers without a clue' tag.

They should just close their bloody legs and let people worry about raising their own kids properly.

I like some of the comments on Daily Fail.

Hey DM, i've just played a game where a Bishop killed a Queen, I think it was called Chess. Now, i'm of weak mind, so I fear the actions in the game will prompt me to become a Bishop in real life & actively attempt Regicide. I propose a worldwide Chess ban ASAP.

Hullo my name Munib. Please not to be ban this game i need for special training for rubber dinghy rapids. Got to be prepared. Bro

The genre of WTC was history. It didn't glamorised the atrocity and it was produced tactfully I thought.

Hey I'm not saying I will or won't play this game. I just understand why people would be upset by it's nature of content.

Sorry for this post, but

Why would ******* MOTHERS care when the game is ******* 18 so to speak ? Women are ******* me right off lately.

THE GAME IS RATED 18. ADULTS SHOULD PLAY THIS GAME ONLY, IF MOTHERS HAVE A DAMN PROBLEM WITH THAT THEY SHOULDNT LET THEIR GOD DAMN UNDERAGE KIDS PLAY THE GAME IN THE FIRST PLACE FFS

+1

Chances are the mothers complaining let there 11 year old kid play these games despite the fact they are often rated 18+ anyway.

Violence in video games is no more harmful that the crap seen on TV on a daily basis.

True, very true.

FURIOUS britons? what percentage of britons are FURIOUS? I'm certainly not furious, I don't know about any of you...

Shayper · 27 May 2011 at 19:49

Gah, things like this annoy me so bloody much! People will complain about ANYTHING! My mum was taking a tube on the day of 7/7, in fact she just missed a train that exploded, and neither her nor I give two massive flying ***** about what media use as storylines and events and the like.

They can bugger off. Hopefully soon. I would like my cod game this year!
