I was surprised that anyone could do anything about it to be honest. The ESRB can't control what happens on the internet, if i post a naked picture of someone on a children's website(Apart from not making the news) all anyone could really do is track the IP and if it was dynamic or from a internet cafe, they can't do much.
If they have rules against such things then they can do shit about it.

But generally it's either too costly or a lost cause. It may be different, but in australia i'm pretty sure that they only start paying attention of it's something that is threatening or that gets a lot of attention.

I'm not certain i could be wrong, but generally they don't get involved in matters on the internet, or Australian's have better things to do then post videos of themselves telling the world they're going to shoot some people. Like i dunno, maybe we just go to the beach more often...?
Lol, internets.

Back to topic!

Where did that subtitle come from? I don't recall seeing it on the website or in the game. That article needs to be cleaned up to meet Wikipedias quality standards.

Do you think Nazi's are offended by all the retail World War II games?
did you just compare a large religion to a relatively very small, organised ultranationalist hate group?

Yes.  :)

^There should be.

Hell, sigvatr (or someone else) should make a sequel to Muslim Massacre from the other side. Snipe civilians at a festival and see how many you can kill before they scatter, or try and beat your highscore for the most effective suicide bombing.

So i'm surprised it came down, and that it came down so fast. But i agree that he female doged out way to fast, especially considering it was a stab at the Americans and not so much at the muslim community.
i'm sure it was, no really. incidentally, the jews did ruin germany, marxists are after our precious freedoms and abortion will send you straight to hell.

Wow. That's beyond retarded. It's just a damn game.
That doesn't mean it can't be offensive.

If I were a Muslim, I wouldn't give a crap because I'm not an idiot, and I know it's just a game.   ;)
If you were a Muslim, you would know what its like to be profiled.

No. If I were a Muslim, I wouldn't give a crap because I'm not an idiot, and I know it's just a game. ;)

It being just a game isn't the point. It's that its stereotyping and antagonising a community out of ignorance and hate. ...... Or at least in theory; I don't know enough about the game to say for sure. If it's a Team America kind of humour, then that'll be ok. Depends on how you present it.

I'm not against funny if somewhat politicly incorrect jokes etc, 'cause sometimes you can't have a laugh without offending someone somewhere. But there's a line between 'politically incorrect' and 'downright racist/dangeriously ignorant'.

While we've squeezed the sh*t out of WWII and it's missions done by every company ever, most of the story and movies were on the American's side, with a few moments that convieniently bring the good side of some of the people in the german army to light.

So yeah, you really can't say f**k the germans while watching Saving Private Ryan or Band of Brothers, because the german army aren't just a faceless entity like you usually find in older PC games.

Watch Das Boot or Starlingrad; those movies are entirely from the German perspective.

And it's true that hollywood overplays America's role in the war; in the movie 'U-571', they even tried to sell it to the audience that the Americans were the first to capture the German Enigma machine. ::)

that's because it's difficult to engage an american audience by portraying america as second fiddle. why do you think there are so many more WWII movies than WWI?

I'm glad it's condemned. At least some of you people understand. That game is stupid, and offended a lot of people.

Don't be ridiculous, in many games you're on some nation's side fighting with other nations. Are germans not offended by SO many games where you kill them? Oh, and can anyone imagine how many times some god or another was offended? Cristians learned it's not a big deal. Why musslims can't? Like it was with the caricature thingy. The point is that they are mostly still barbarians living in caves, and don't get the civilised world point of view.

But Sigvatr finally got the attention he wanted so much!

The game isn't on his blog no more but, as it was easy to foresee, it's now even easier to get.

The only ones condemning it are the ones who didn't understand the point. Then again, without people getting butthurt it wouldn't have much of one.

Cool, I'm now in possession of a rare game that either 404'd or was deleted.

You're argument would make sense if not for the MASSIVE flaw in it. The difference is this is a glorified slaughter and that is a battle between 2 warring parties.

Wolfenstein was not comically presented, I remember it scaring the shit out of me. It did not glorify.
