You'd be surprised.

Ask the people who hate GTA: San Andreas because of "the ghetto theme" even though the ghetto is about 1/6 of the game, and who hate that the music is all gangsta rap when that's one of a dozen radio stations. :lol:

I really hope that you did not create this thread because of the lack of interest in 50 Cent games around these parts. If so, then maybe it is just you who has the problem. The fact that a black guy is the main character has nothing to do with the fact that the entire concept behind the game is lame beyond description. Sorry if that offends you, lol.

Racists are... However this isn't really relevant to System Wars. It's highly doubtful that all but a handful will avoid a game because the protaganist is black, therefore your whole thread is not relevant to anything. Good Job!!

Wrong. I didn't play San Andreas for this reason. It was so annoying that I finally gave up on it (10 min. into the game).

How would you not be a gamer? I think it would just describe a racist or someone with an interesting preference is all.

Actually, this brings up a very interesting question about games. Does the main character, black, white, male, female, gay straight, etc... effect the gamer/communities perception of the game?

I would say that most people like games that have a relatable main character. I'm not sure how much of a factor race plays into our impressions of the character/game, but I'm willing to bet that gender and sexuality would have a bigger impact. A lot of people call Uncharted Duderaider, but would people be as enthusiastic about the game if the main character had been thewoman in the plane? (Sorry, just played the demo.) FF games talk a lot of flack for the "emo/girly" men, but what if the main character was actually homosexual? (Remember, sexuality is not as taboo a subject in a lot of Japanese media)

I remember playing gameshow type games even on the PS, you always tried to find the contestant that looked the most like yourself. Now in the days of Miis and other avatars, we're growing used to having the ability to more easily place ourselves in the game.

My opinion is if it really matters that the MC is black, don't play it.


But don't go around publicizing it cause it makes you sound even more stupid :lol:

I wouldn't say they aren't gamers, but I would say they are racist.
