| British tabloids are calling for the upcoming MW3 to be banned in the UK due to its scenes in the London invasion as 'eerily' familiar to the 7/7 terrorist bombings.
what do you guys think about this? the media going crazy again or is there something to it?

| i saw this from gunnshop but its just scaremongering, so to speak, to act as publicity. notice how theres literally nothing about this game actually being banned so im annoyed gunnshop did that. |

| that'd mean most games would be banned - vietnam = BO ww2 = most of the call of duty series
i think they kicked up some fuss with the vietnam stuff because its too close to home, but ww2 affected us all, so i cant see why not |

| Fucking hell everythings related these days. People just need something to cry over. Ooo my toy boat sunk in the bath i'm never watching Titanic again! The cookie monster said fart on tv, i'm gonna go shoot elmo! Twats! Just becuase something gets blown up doesnt mean its anything like 7/7 or 9/11. Think they all gotta realise that terrorism is real! |

| any publicity is good publicity at the minute. its amazing how MW3 just blew up from a few well timed 'leaks' as compared to BF3's massive marketing campaign which didnt get them nearly as much publicity |
