LOL,it never ends does it there will always be A group of people or just one person who has A hair up their butt.Give it A rest (IMO)venomdeoOK, since "games are just your escape from reality" there should be no problem with a developer creating a game that depicts an alternate time line in which the Country of Israel is a terrorist state and you have a group of people from around the world go into Jerusalem and give head shot after head shot of rebel Jews and Jewish village sympathisers too. After all, it's only a game and it's not real life is it.

If that sony add about the white psp and black psp can be considered racist, so can this! munu9Definatly, and even then you had gamers saying "oh this is ridiculous, oppression of black people ended 400 years ago. the world is different now. Stop with calling this add racist. it's just a VG add."
White, Black, Green, Blue..... ITS A GAME!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SO DEAL WITH IT AND TRY TO HAVE SOME FUN INSTEAD! I CANT WAIT TO PLAY IT!lcoolleoYup, ignore any moral values cause "IT'S JUST A FRIKGEN GAME" A game can has heavy references to child porn and less distort real world history but implying the holacost didn't happen and all Jews are lying but as long as "IT'S ONLY A FRIKGEN GAME" then we should just accept it.
the lady could take a look at crackdown were u can select any race u want and go out to kill asians,mexicans, and russians....360player_eq12Excatly, there isn't one major group of people being portrayed as the villan. They are spread across a number of backgrounds.
They aren't Zombies! Have you played a RE game of late? They are humans infected with a virus.Here's an opinion from a Black female:
Idk anyone who wants to see their race portrayed negatively. Unfortunately, this spokeswoman is mistaking black people for zombies. Zombies aren't white people, Hispanic people, or black people. They're undead creatures. You guys are forgetting that she represents a non-gamer who can't see the forest for the trees.

Have the gaming community just gone stupid?!?! people are constantly talking about "well, duh there are black people in Africa" THAT'S NOT THE FRIKGEN POINT. The point is you've got a white Xter killing black Africans. and if any person says something stupid like "well RE4 was in Europe with spanish villagers" then I ask you this - was the main Xter Black orAsian or of obvious different ethical background? NO,HE was a white American killing White Spaniards. OF course people are goin to get mad.
All of you saying it's only a game won't be saying that if the main Xter was an Asian or Black and was mowing down women from a Swedish village that were blonde and blue eyes. Think about it, of the billions of games in the world, what game do you know has the mainprotagonist as a totally different and obvious differentback ground than the majority of the villans? You'd be hard pressed to find one main stream game that the protagonist and the majority of the villians didn't have obvious similarities unless it's humans against aliens or something.
Again the problem is not about Black people being the majority of thevillans but the protagonist being obviously different. Capcom knew excatly what they were doing when they released the vid clips. It's may turn out differently on the final product but for now any one who says they don't see anything wrong in this has got to have some level of racism in them and if you're black and don't see this as questionable then you either live in some weird bubble life or are jsut a moron.
[QUOTE="Shaqneel"]Actually wasn't there a forum topic which said the egm review of lair was only a rumor, and wasn't actually out yet. Furthermore, I believe another topic said that Play Magazine gave lair a good 9.0. I would just reccomend waiting for either gamespot or ign to review the game because they are really the best reviewer imo, and the most fair. Other sites and magazines i've noticed really do tend to exagerrate some things. jiggawho2006
FYI gamepro gave 3.75/5 still a flop :)
This viral marketing and smear champaigning from the xbox fanbase is just silly. Why lie like that? EGM & Gamepro have not rated LAIR yet, if you disagree pls. give link to your info. Stop spreading misinformation!
