Or a KKK rally. Or a political convention. Or Killing Kittens…
It seems video games offer a little something to offend everyone these days. I ran across a link to Muslim Massacre yesterday, and my immediate reaction was “Oh my God, how pointlessly offensive, I wonder when the fatwa will be issued?”. Which more or less remains my response. But in the interest of equal time, let’s make sure everyone has something to get offended about. First of all, I should point out that Muslim Massacre is Windows Only, so since the site goads you with “Don’t be a liberal p*ssy! Download this game now!”, I guess we’ve covered Mac users too. For those who are most offended by that first link, we have Bush Shootout (hell, who couldn’t enjoy that one) or WTC Defender. Just laugh maniacally while you let the planes crash instead of shooting them. Isn’t that what the White House did? For “Best Marketing Plan Award”, there’s Virginia Tech Rampage, whose creator said he’d pull the game if enough donations were made (much more clever than Super Columbine Massacre, where apparently you just shoot kids). And still sporting a fairly high offensiveness quotient, but a little less bloody, we have Operation Pedopriest in which you’re asked by the Vatican to cover up pedophilia among priests, and So You Think You Can Drive, Mel? , in which you help the man who brought us the phrase “sugar tits” avoid state troopers and rabbis while gathering bottles of tequila.
