Resident Evil 5 will catch some flak from Jacky Thomp Thomp

I mean comon. Your a white dude....in africa...shooting black people..........who are evil........

my black friends have been pondering this since the trailer came out...what say you?

They are in Haiti.Sir-Marwin105

thank god, last thing we need is Jack Thompson going after games with racial motivations...

It might but I think that he has only eyes for Take Two, Rockstar, and GTA 4 right now.

You also shoot hispanic people (it's in Haiti), and who cares even if they were all black?

No one complained when you capped 950+ Spaniards in RE4...

I think it is because of people of you making this non-issue an issue that we still have a problem with the color of someones skin here in America. I also don't think Thompson will have anything to say condsidering that he is facing be released from the law bar in Florida.dlp21

who invited the fun police?

jethrovegas

yeah thats a good point.

I don't think they'll get any problems from jack.

u got to kill spanish people on re4, and we never heard anyone complain about it....if u think re5 is racist....ur pretty......hmm....retardedDante2710

unfourtunately there are politicians who will see it that way, instead of reading up on it.

politicians also believe that Flight Simulator X is training children to carry out terrorist attacks. Politicians are dumb, I do think that politicians or some political lobbyist group will have something against this game and others, mainly for violent content but it can also extend to who or what you actually are killing

To be honest, who really cares about what Jack Thompson thinks or may think in the future?

I know I don't.

Look at it like this imagine if you saw a movie trailer like that. Can you even imagine watching a movie trailer that showed those kind of images?to regular people those"non-zombie" villagers look like just that; non-zombievillagers. They just look likeangry dark people.not all of them are black. I really dont know where Capcom are going with this.

All kinds of people from different camps would be disgusted if they saw amovie trailer with that kind of imagery

"its different because its resident evil"of course. But the "it's just a videogame" excuse can only work for so long.

Videogame creators like Rockstar games and fans like myself rightfully defend their controversial games by saying their "artistic vision"is being compromised by all this BS legislation.

to observers who aren't that informed we gamers would look like hyprocrites if we defended Grand theft auto and Manhunt on grounds of artistic expression but then defended Resident evil by saying it's "just a game" because in doing that we're purposefully ignoring what we defend in GTA and manhunt; the creatorsleaving profoundmessages in their computer games.

In rockstars case they exaggerate the evils of the world for comedic effect, and put you in the shoes of somone trying to tackle the american dream in a messed up city filled with self-contradictions. What's the deeper meanings in resident evil 4 that we would defend?

we'll have to see what capcom have planned with this. They could be making very interesting social commentary.

Did anyone make a big deal out of a white dude shooting spanish people in RE4?TyrantDragon55

spanish isnt a race, it's a nationality. thats the difference.

I find the whole resident evil is racist thing to be bs, gaming is a fictional telling of a story in a fictional setting even if the setting is based of a real world environment.

They can't stop us watching a movie or reading a book about anything, why should they be able to stop us playing a video game?

Its stupid at best that most governments are calling themselves democratic yet over 90% of them act like dictators, the worlds is just living a lie ^_^

ya right we all know JT is a klansmen

its kinda racist so maybeSonic_on_crack

No, people thinking that shooting blacks is somehow worse than shooting whites is what is racist.

Saying: "Oh, well, it's OK toshoot whites in a video game, but it's not OK to shoot blacks" that is what is racist.

Either shooting "people" in a video game is bad or it isn't: The color of someones skin should be a non-issue.

And people from spain are considered to be white people...

who said shooting blacks is racist ? the facts that the non zombie blacks in the game act like totally irrational violent monsters is .

And thats what you and the 99% of people here who jump to conclusions dont get

They are irrational violent monsters within the context of the game. :|

They are being affected by something. Period.

Blacks are not any better or any worse than anyone else.

They don't deserve special treatment. They don't deserve immunity from being video game enemies, whether they are zombies or not. Get over it.

please kid dont hit me with a " get over it " when the ESRB gives it AO for racism and it cant be released I'll tell you to get over it . Its already known that Japan's views on blacks are stereotypical and idiotic . And not all the people are infected but they still act like zombies and thats the problem period.

In RE4 did Luis act like a violent monster ?? no . In RE5 does very black person infected or not act like a violent monster yes.

Its racist. get over it
