Electronic Arts: Censorship, it's what we do. This seems to be the case with Medal of Honor at least. I am HIGHLY dissapointed that Electronic Arts gave in. Sure the game will be the same, just the name Taliban as a team name got changed to opposing force, but to me and others I would assume... it's the point of it all. Why must we censor a video game? Why do people get so upset over a video game? Why the HECK are we censoring video games? Censorship is something I might expect from companies in countries like China, Iran, and North Korea. Electronic Arts, what the heck are you thinking?
Electronic Arts made a huge EPIC FAIL imho by caving into pressure from people who are upset over Medal of Honor for stupid reasons. The end result= Medal of Honor is now a censored game.
One of the reasons I was thinking about buying this game was because they weren't giving into the pressure and also I wanted to just rub it in the faces of the people who want video games to be censored. Now though, I am less likely to buy the game. Yes, I am less likely to buy the game because there is no playable Taliban in multiplayer... because I hate video game censorship.
What do you guys think about this?
