i swear if al sharpton comes out of no where and trys to bann this game im gonna be so pissed of

seriously, I'm tired of Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson supposedly "fighting" for the black community, where "fighting" is suing companies and people to get some kind of financial reward. Do we seriously live in a society where someone screams "Racism" while holding out their hand for money? I have black friends and they think that these people "representing" their communities are idiots and need to shut up.

seriously, it's just a game. Igf you think something as stupid as the images portrayed in the RE5 trailer represent you as a person, then you're obviously that stupid and should just shut up.

It's. a. game.

bottom line

I mean does anyone else agree, or am I just ranting now? haha

I'm not sure if anyone else has posted this, but isn't Resident Evil 5 being developed by Capcom, a JAPANESE company? White people aren't depicting this 'racism,' the japanese are likely unintentionally plotting the game's story like this. i'm sure they meant no harm

and wasn't resident evil 4 in like Spain? someone said eastern europe so i'm pretty sure it was in spain. anyways, sorry if i'm just repeating something that has been said already becuase i'm half asleep and i really can't read all the posts right now. if that's the case, then i agree with whoever has said this.


edit/ i just realized this topic died on the 9th, didn't mean to bring it up again becuase i didn't know it was like 3 weeks since anyone posted on it....

I'm black.

Someone in the 1st page posted about how they've made zombies in this game everywhere in the world, and it should only be fair to do so in Africa.

I'm not arguing. Its like the blacks who defend this notion of it being wrong, want some sort of special treatment. I don't understand. Its fine to blow apart white people...but when we're blown up its 3 times as worse? As an African, I do NOT understand that whatsoever.

As a white person I am hurt that in former RE games you had to kill white people. I find that we should have been killing a greater range of zombie races whether they live in the area or not.

Yes that was sarcasm. Africa is GENERALLY made up of black people. Of course we're going to be killing them if they're zombies in Africa. it's a fricking game. I can't think of a single black person I know that would care whether he shot a black or white zombie. Nor a white person for that matter.
