Now we've all seen or heard of or even played in D-Day type of games. About events that happened how many years ago? Decades ago? I mean the grievances of those events have come and gone, they are now history. Personally I'm not a fan of them, I won't participate in them, but I also can see it as play-able to a degree. So long as it's still pushed on the fact that this is fantasy land and such.
But what about recent events. Would it be okay to have a game in a shut-down school and call it "Columbine"? Would it be okay to play in the Nevada Desert with 'hostages' and call the game "Operation Iraqi Freedom"? Would you expect somebody to produce a game in Maryland where the objective is to find 2 poeple who've been picking off random civilians and call it "Sniper Hunt 2004"??
Or how about a game on September 11th. Not even twisting it around with fake terrorist organiztions... but using the actual names and the game's intent is to prevent the president from being assassinated..... would you think this game is okay?
Well some people did. Check this crap out.
That's right. Apparently these guys have no problem making light of these events and attempting to make a profit off it at the same time. Showing a complete lack of respect to those 3000+ who died in that terrorist attack which inevitably would trigger us to go to war causing even MORE American casualties!
And nowhere on the site was there any specific bolded mention of...
"This game is in rememberance of those who died due to the Terrorist Attacks"
"This game is to pay for the WTC organization funding"
Or anything like that, nothing. They've now deleted it from their website, but their original promotional message was

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
911
AMERICA UNDER SIEGE
WHO THOUGHT THAT IT COULD GET ANY WORSE AFTER THE BRUTAL ATTACKS THAT OCCURRED TO OUR COUNTRY ON 9/11/01. NOBODY.
NOW THAT TRAGIC DATE IS UPON US ONCE AGAIN, AND THE AL QAEDA FORCES HAVE A NEW PLAN, THE ASSASSINATION OF THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.
THE AL QAEDA FORCES HAVE BEEN PLANNING THIS ATTACK FOR YEARS AND KNOW THAT IT WILL BE ANOTHER SUICIDE MISSION. THEY HAVE GATHERED THEIR TROOPS IN THE CITY OF TAYLOR, MICHIGAN AND WILL DEPLOY THEIR PLAN AT EXACTLY 10:00AM ON 9/11/04 TO COMMEMORATE THE DEVASTATION THEY BROUGHT 3 YEARS AGO.
JOIN THE SECRET SERVICE AT TAYLOR MICHIGAN ON 9/11 TO HELP STOP THESE TERRORISTS FROM KILLING THE PRESIDENT AND KEEP OUR COUNTRY SAFE FROM AL QAEDA ONCE AND FOR ALL.

I'm sorry but this is just plane wrong on so many levels. A classless lack of respect or honor towards you, I, and everybody else who has suffered because of this event. And those who died. And ABOVE all hosting it on the 3rd anniversary of the 9/11 attack itself.
Sorry this had gone too far.
Please contact the field and promoters of this event and tell them how much you disapprove of it. Also contact the sponsors if you have time. Events like this cannot happen. What is next, a holocaust scenerio game?
