Well if the goal is to be on the same level as those shitty gore fest movies then mission accomplished.

I cant wait to get some head shot on some kids. There will be kids to shoot right. No such thing as bad publicity, that why they made that level.

Honestly, i fail to see how playing a terrorist in a game is any different then playing any main character in a GTA game.
Not to mention the large rise in games with an "evil" path where your usually burning down orphanages and killing random people.
Oddly, i find it harder and harder to take the "evil" paths as i get older though.

It's only a big issue because it's at an airport and it's a terrorist attack. I hope that if you skip the section, it shows a movie of it instead, because I've never liked killing innocents in games.
Currently playing:
- Command and Conquer: Red Alert 2 (want to play an underrated and fantastic RTS? I'll teach you how to play! The online community is still quite active and still has plenty of noobs!)
- Uncharted 2: Among Thieves

I don't know why people are mentioning things like GTA. Look at MW2 character models and look at GTAs. GTA is like a cartoon, it is closer to comical violence that when you control you laugh at than anything. MW2 tries to be a lot more realistic and is trying to make a serious stance. Only problem is MW2 fails in the concept of 'fading to black' or cutting away like is done in great directed movies and instead comes off as nothing but some cheap gore movie going for shocks, and those things suck.

The reason it is so controversial has nothing to do with the fact it is at an airport, if it were at a shopping center or any other crowded public place it would be the same. The controversial factor is that you are FORCED to kill innocents to proceed. This is something that GTA does not make you do, you can go through the entire GTA experience without ever killing an innocent. Infact if IW hadn't allowed you to skip this part of the game i imagine it would have been refused classification in many regions.
Don't get me wrong though, i personally have nothing against this. After all, it's just a game.

You're not forced to do anything. You are given the option to skip it. Even if you don't, you don't have to fire. You can just turn away.
