Boy did you guys fall for all this mumbo jumbo hook, line and sinker. I started this conversation just to get BayonetBrant to actively participate in a thread in the computer wargaming forum. Suckers.

How did we fall for anything? The conversation and games are real and so is the debate. And Shower With Your Dad still makes me want to die.

Shower with your Dad isn't even the worst shower game.  Skip to 8:20 for the really crazy stuff.

^Complaining, of course, begs the question...are video games and digital media a form of free speech that deserve a platform?

I believe they are. But as consumers we have the right to voice our displeasure at what we are finding on the shelves.
I agree with you. Personally I find it in bad taste, and won't be buying a copy.

It's kind of silly to investigate whether or not a Clinton is lying. That's sort of like investigating why the sky is blue. Banzai_Cat

Let's be honest...is this a game anyone here would have bought anyway?

Probably not.

The game also lets you shoot americans, not just Mexicans. Not one-sided racist bias.

Sir Slash

Yeah the 'Mexicans' don't look Mexican to me. They look like Anglos, run like them too. My Daughter-In-Law's family is Mexican and believe me, they can run faster than that.
