GamePolitics Posted yesterday on how Fox & Friends wanted to get an ECA member to defend the game

I think that dude from slash gamer was stoned :D

O fox news YOU SO CRAZY!

To be honest, "No Russian" although a fucktonne of fun to play through, over and over, and over, was by no means the most disturbing part of this game.

SPOILERS (lightly obscured)

The whole part with the General fucking over you and Ghost really left me gobsmacked. like fucking WOW. Especially after struggling through the mission, getting dragged to the extraction and then THAT! - I was literally just thinking, "wow, Ghost is a fucking ledge, I'd love a facemask like his, i think Ghost is my favourite character" then bam! Nooooooooooooooooooooo! Then you FUCKING BURN ALIVE!

Also when you come out of the bunker to find Russians shooting at you from the Whitehouse, and the fucking nuke/EMP jobby - just WOW!

When Soap drops you in Rio! When you're running through Rio trying to escape, when you find what's-his-name in the Gulag, even the in-the-bunker part before the white house, or finding the body in the panic room, simply the Russians paradropping into US suburbia, or moving the injured dude from business to business - sure they're not as controversial as "No Russian" but they're a million times more emotional. A million times.

Literally I'd forgotten all about "No Russian" as i fought through a blacked out DC, or ran out of mags in the downed chopper, or fired javelins from the whitehouse.

no Russian was like "hahahaha this is a nice change and fun to blast these sheeple" Whereas a massive amount of the rest of the game was like "OHHHH MY FUCKING GOD! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"

The question when you boot it up shouldn't be "will you be offended" it should be "will you be devastated when a character you've developed a love and respect for is burning in front of you"

I just advised a colleague NOT TO buy this game for her 11 year old son. But it had nothing to do with no Russian.

This FOX News bullshit is the Citizen Kane of FOX news bullshits.

I gotta wonder where the hell they got this guy. Stacked deck, anyone?

Slash gamer, you have now made a wonderful first impression to this gamer.

@podebeijaranoiva

Weren't we just saying that about Bush for the last 8 years before this? I'm confused.

Either way, lets face it, Fox News is full of sensationalist bullshit, no matter their clearly conservative agenda.

that was a lame exchange of ideas, the slash gammer guy was so lame

Damn, that was way more painful to watch than the transcript I read yesterday.

Fuck! Ever since the airport scene was leaked, I thought IW could actually come out smelling like a rose. I mean, surely they had Fox News busting "master debaters =)" locked and loaded right? Apparently, no. Not at all!

Kinda seemed like the guy on the right was a MW2 fan, no?

The dude on our the pro side made video game players look like well prepared and well spoken individuals...

I have to give them credit for finding an Anti-MW2 spokesman that didn't even mention the possiblity that the responsibility for any ill effects falling on the game industry side. He clearly lays the responsibility on parents (where it SHOULD be placed).

Now his continual refernce to the "proven" link between video game violence and atual RL violence is typical Fox News lameness.... It seems the media these days (not just Fox News) seems to TRY and find the most controversal "expert" they can and give them a bully pulpit to spew their BS laden bile at the "issue" the media wants stired into a frenzy. They are then completely blameless for giving air time to a moronic point of view and they can claim "journalism" by simply having 2 opposing "viewpoints" debate the issue.

I'm still trying to figure out when the "facts" became the last thing any media outlet wants to present to the public.

@socialnorms

Obama admin. is trying to silence Fox News.

oh wait i just watched the rest of it. embarrassing

Fox is loved and admired the world over as are all of Rupert Murdoch's media enterprises...




...by cunts.

Was that really the best guy they could find for the pro-vidyagame side? Really?Anyway, the end was hilarious. Also, "corelation to violence" = eyeroll. Twats all around, I'd say.

When the guy attacking MW2 spends most of his airtime spewing such damning commentary as "its a really well made game," and "its really realistic," something is wrong.

Really though, the no Russian level was disturbing. But you have several choices up to that point, I mean you get to choose whether or not you play it to begin with and then once you choose to play it you can choose not to kill any civilians whatsoever. Any murdering is your choice alone.

The rest of the game was a much bigger mindfuck. It really struck a chord with me when I was in suburbia USA fighting a war and I thought for a second about the ridiculousness of hearing "paratroopers dropping down near the burger joint, regroup at restaurant" and then i realized that this is exactly the same situation real soldiers find themselves in overseas, we're just not used to war taking place on familiar soil. It's disheartening and disturbing thinking that "yeah, i guess this is what it would be like if the tables were turned."

Pixels.

Xbox? More like JihadBox!
Playstation? More like Talabanstation!
PC? More like...wait, nobody plays this game on PC. They have been spared from Terrorist Training Simulator '09 (TM).
Seriously, Fox news is way ahead of the game. I can't wait for Mass Effect 2: Sexbox Returns! come January.
