Oh boy, the reason why this game is getting all the red flags is that something similiar has happen to Blacks like this. Infected with a deadly disease, and then being murdered because of it ...isn't that far'fetch of a story. THe place might have changed, but the idea is too close to real life events. Hell, Africans already suffer from a bad Aids problem ..now they have to be turned into Zombies and killed by a white man with muscles and a rife.
Thank God, I never could stomach this game long enough to play it. Zombies ..should have played out in the early 50s.
Also, Every heard of the Tuskegee experiment ...no ...then maybe you should read up on it first.Then see why this game is getting the red flag so quickly.
Sorry, I normally don't comment, but I do have to this time. Okay, I am not even a fan of football, and I have to call a majority of the commentors here ...assholes.
You are saying we can't want equality, but stay diverse ..fine. All other races are now black, there is no more problem with the race of the game or the comment, because it doesn't step on anyone's nervous. Schools will now focus only on black history, and we will not talk so much about great white artist but focus on African & African Americans one ..as well as ancient astronomy & math that ...start off in Africa, but really is never discussed pass multiplications & timetables.
I love all these complaint of race, but I don't see any of these type of comments on articles where you can tell what race is involved dealing with whether or not the face of the victim/culpit is shown. Hey anyone here ...heard of the Jena 6 ..probably not, because it's racism in it's fines, but it's so tone down ...you would think killing dogs were more important than putting up a murder charge for a kid using a shoe as a deadly weapon in a school fight that was started because white students were handing noose on the trees that african american students sat at.
Or resident Evil 5, where you shot black people whom aren't zombies, but in this one ...are being effected by a badass disease.
Yeah, they aren't dead ...they are still alive, but insane.
Oh let's not forget ..it's an White person whom is doing the shooting, and it's not racist ..just artistic freedom. White person running around shooting up an entirely black village ...yeah ...that is not a call for alarm there.
White = safe to shoots blacks Black = Racist football game
It's not racist to show African Americans as thugs & drug deals ..just like Mexicans I might add, but it is racist to show off Historically black college?
My point in this ...this is actually a positive thing for a game that focuses on a league that is given squat worth of air time on public television, but has been around for decades. Does it have to be only HBCU's no, but they actually want to show off some of these schools & as for the name ..they need to work on that, but to be honest ..it isn't that bad.
Okay, I had a long post drawn up for this, but I think I should just give it to you short & simple. Sonya is considered a thief, because Nintendo was so secretative about their controller in the beginning for reasons everyone thought was stupid. Yet, the minute that it's announce Sony does what everyone thought was as likely to happen as a snake learning to fly, and copy the idea. Yup, they come out with motion sensory, which though is just a pale imitation of the Wii ((I really hate that name)) ... it a imitation of it. Yeah, this technology is old, but it's still the fact of the matter about the motion sensory tilt.
Thus, this is what the outrage is about ... everyone wants to get information about the newest updates as soon as possible, but with the fear of thief that is not likely to happen. You want to know about the newest updates of Microsoft, well that is not going to happen if they are scared that Nintendo or Sony is going to steal it. IF the PS3 come up with something really revolutionary ..., and instead of knowing about it in 2006 ... you have to wait until it's just about to come out in 2008 .. who really lose?
Okay quick rant:
WTF, I like the boomarang, and I don't care about Rumble. What the fuck was it used for then a quick surprise sometimes when the thing actually jumped. I am not going to get PS3 anyway, because it's too expensive, and I know this might sound strange, but the Gamecube kind of brought me back to Nintendo. IF they will just add a stupid DVD player out of the box ... then I would have a real reason to buy Wii. Sorry waving my arms around like an idiot doen't seem like a lot of fun to me. Microsoft can just go to hell! Sorry, but after realizing that I can't even pick a X-box up ... I refuse to go out & buy a 360.
