Why do people say RE5 is a racist game?

who knows...nobody complained when it was an American killing Spanish people ( American-Spanish War...HOW OFFENDING!!!)

I just dont get it, What do u expect tho see? White zombies in Africa?Latina_Chlck

that kinda misses the point, tho...

It's because people search for racism even when there is none to be foundLS07

Exactly. If the protagonist wasn't white, it wouldn't be considered racist. But he's white, so it can, and is.

Mainly because your character is the only white guy (so far) and he is going around killing groups of black people onlyGarchomPro

people? I think not.

Yeah, this is so ridiculous...I wonder who came up with the idea.

I think it is but it should be black vs black that should be more fitting statictics.MgamerBD

But Chris Redfield isn't black...

i mean if they change the protagnist.

The woman that complained it was racist is more racist towards her own race then the majority of the population is.

When I saw it I thought, "Gee, that game looks sweet, I'm gonna kill zombies!!!" not, "Omg, look at all of the black people!"

I doubt anyone would have figured it was racist if they know what Resident Evil is, and they know that it takes place in Africa. By the way, she also stated that the zombies look like they are infected with the AIDS virus or that zombieness is what AIDS would look like in a video game.

It would be racist not to call it racist. You see, if any black isn't being discriminated against nowadays, it is racist as he's being excluded.SolidSnake35

hmmm or am I *dun* *dun* *dun*

Well actually, it would kind of even out (IMO) if Chris had a black companion(with a cool african accent, which showed up at multiple points in the storyline to help chris out (kind of like luis).. Thoughts?FireCracker146

That was what I was thinking. There could even be a group of survivors that did not get infected when the others did.

Because idiots dont know that europeans can travel to africa for business, vacation etc...and if their in danger there obviously going to defend themselves no matter what race.MeriMorganov

true. not only europeans, the rest of the world can travel to almost anywhere they want. not to iraq right now, though.

and you know what, i dont see samoans in this game, no chinese, indians or whatnot. and i dont hear any of these people complain. it's just thatsome of the black people in america get too sensitive for their own good.

I just dont get it, What do u expect tho see? White zombies in Africa?Latina_Chlck

you must understand people...are freakin retarded and dont know that black people come from africa

white guy killing black guys

thats it. apparently there was nothing wrong with killing countless white zombies in the past re games. but now that the primary enemies arent white, its a big deal
