Ethnic Cleansing (2002) is a controversial computer game developed by Resistance Records, an underground music label owned by the National Alliance specializing in Neo-Nazi and white supremacist bands. In the game, the protagonist (the player can choose either a skinhead or a Klansman) runs through a ghetto killing black people and Latinos, before descending into a subway system to kill Jews. Finally he reaches the "Jewish Control Center", where Ariel Sharon, former Prime Minister of Israel, is directing plans for world domination. The player must kill Sharon to win the game. - en.wikipedia.org...
I know I have strong work and was even told by people at Disney, but I have yet got into the field as of yet.
if you have the talent and skill, you should be hired.

Hmmmmm. I play WoW. The only racism there that I can see is that Trolls are considered bad, while gnomes are considered good. You can make your human charachter black, white, or inbetween. The undead, however, don't get that luxury. If they have skin, it can be shaded any where from grayish, bluish, or greenish.

I mean what I have seen it is purely noticeable that companies hire mostly white people in the industry. Once in awhile they will hire that minority just to appease the Affirmative Action law. I myself am minority and trying to get into the industry. I know I have strong work and was even told by people at Disney, but I have yet got into the field as of yet. I even tried entry level positions.
If you look at some companies team photos you will see nothing, but white and occasionally once in awhile you get a token in that picture. I kind of laugh at companies that state they are an EEO company and yet all one color. I know there are really talented minorities out there and wonder why they haven't been hired? it is really odd in my book and I have written this on many of forums and got no reply from anybody in the gaming industry on this.
Just look at the games that come out like Resident Evil 5 or DragonAge Origins. In DragonAge Origins all the humans are white. I mean they do give you a way to colorize your character other than white. But none of the main characters were different color. In Resident Evil 5 you have Chris Redfield going against all black zombies in Africa. In all of the Resident Evil games I don't remember the virus being created in Africa. I think they wanted some controversy since it worked with Rockstar games.
A few games also had some main characters that were non-white like GTA series, but they were just using a stereo typical black person living in the ghetto style persona.
So if anybody works with the gaming industry is it true there is some sort of Racism in the field? I probably won't get a response though. I will personally keep on trying and figure out what gaming companies want in an artist.

"Resident Evil 4 was located in Spain, so there were Spanish zombies," Storm said. "Now we're in Africa. And guess what? The zombies are African."

The gaming industry has to be one of the most liberal I would say of any industry, they need new ideas for games, otherwise they fail.
