"Tea Party Zombies Must Die," which allows players to indiscriminately slaughter politicians like Michele Bachmann, Mike Huckabee and Sarah Palin.


interesting.

There is very likely games that do the same thing with liberals instead of conservatives...
People on the fringe are nuts, it's that simple.

Let me guess, Sarah Palin whined about this? Never mind that she had a political ad that had crosshairs on various liberal politicians. But that was somehow different right?

Oh, well, she didn't mean literal crosshairs. Nevermind that she was targeting actual living people rather than the zombified corpses of living people. :rolleyes:

Oh, and I love how the article makes a point to name every game that has a political bend to it, but completely glosses over the name of the game that won the award. Nice bit of journalistic integrity, there.

I like how when you bring up the main entertainment page for video games, Fox News actually has the wikipedia entry explaining what a video game is on the front page. >.>

Wait wait wait, this is a Flash game? Seriously? They're pissed over a Flash game? So they're pissed over something that anyone with a week or two on their hands could slap together a game in.....annnd that is entirely supported by banner ads. AKA Fox giving it publicity puts money directly into the pockets of the game developers. Brilliant, Holmes.

Also, its less "gruesome" then the original Wolfenstein.

But this is the same network that called Mass Effect an "alien sex orgy simulator" afterall.

Computer games don't kill people, people kill people?
