A computer game in which players control an American soldier sent to "wipe out the Muslim race" has been condemned as offensive and tasteless by a British Muslim group.
The goal of Muslim Massacre, which can be downloaded for free on the internet, is to "ensure that no Muslim man or woman is left alive", according to the game's creator.
Players control an "American Hero" armed with a machine gun and rocket launcher who is parachuted into the Middle East.
The game's creator, a freelance programmer known as Sigvatr, described the game on the SomethingAwful.com website as "fun and funny".
In a "How you can help" section, he writes to visitors: "Don't whinge about how offensive and 'edgy' this is."
British Muslim youth organisation The Ramadhan Foundation expressed its "deep condemnation and anger" at the game.

Pretty sad when "games" become fantasy and "fun" of genociding a fellow human being because of their differences...

There are enough games like Ghost Recon, Call of Duty encouraging kids to hate Germans, Russians, Japanese, Koreans, Arabs, etc. I don't think this is any different.

There are truly some very sick, twisted individuals in the world.

These types of stereotyping / hatred fueling things are the MOST signifigant things we should be paying attention to, based on what has been occuring over the past half decade or more!

People need to put an end to this type of racial / religious differences, EDUCATE themselves beyond this mindset, and evolve.

It's a GAME.
Just like "it's a movie"
It's entertainment.
Someone forgot to teach their kids the difference, I guess.
