"Hindu over reaction at Hitman 2"

Ok, no offence to hindus but why are they having a go at hitman 2? How can they brand a game racist or immoral, claiming that the game is developed by men of mainly christian denomination, who have ignored the basic foundations of the Hindu faith, when pacifism is the Issue in hand. Christian faith is clearly a religion which is based around the issues of love and pacificism "love thy neighbour" "an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth, but yet i tell you to forget this". Yet to you see a mass uproar of christians campaigning over the fact that the first and last levels of Hitman 2 are perhaps the most violent in the game and involve in church massacres. The fact of the matter is that this is just a GAME, if you are immoral enough to run around with your silent berretta, double tapping bad guys in the head, and in game action actually singnifies desanctifying and commiting sin, then you are already immoral and sinful anyway according to the same logi, that in game actions reflect what shouldn't happen in life. Some people have gone way to far in there protests over the this game, and i hear some large chains have removed it from their shelves. This is clearly ridiculous. Mafia features a massacre at a funeral one of the holiest events in christian beleif where the body and soul are commited to God's care; yet there was no uproar at this. Some people need to face the reality that not everything needs a large reaction, and that somethings are really just harmless fun. Are they saying that, Violence and cold blooded murder is OK its only the location that matters? no, i don't think so. So its clearly a ridiculous over reaction.

It wasnt just hindus, it was loads of kids on newsround. Stupid children thinking that they are smarter than they actually are.

I saw a cracking T-shirt for sale in London once, for "coloured" people.

It was along the lines of...

"When you're angry, you're red.
When you're ill, you're green.
When you're embarrassed, you're pink.
When you're afraid you're yellow.

When I'm angry, I'm black.
When I'm ill, I'm black.
When I'm embarrassed, I'm black.
When I'm afraid, I'm black.

And you call ME coloured?"

I thought that was hilarious.

Calling someone coloured is racist.

Yeah, I think it's stupid, Why is it considered rasicst when a white person kills a coloured person but when groups of coloured people gang up on little white teens and tourists to mug them, it's not considered racist.

i'm hindu and u know... it isn't offensive, i mean it's just as bad as killing on gta 3 and no one complained about it. i think the reason they're getting offended is because to them it's basically playing sept 11, cause ur replying a level where in history hundreds of terrorists came in and killed hundreds of monks

Typical reaction.

People don't cry out about the fact that advertising is the strongest form of media on our minds, and it portrays racist images everyday - Black/Asian people are only tokens, and they have to have Caucasian features to be able to 'look nice'.

Its sick, but nobody seems to care.

Now this is a valid point. If we're going to have racial equality, let's make sure it's equal shall we?

Damnit, you know my secret!

Yes, it's true. I am not a man, I am the worlds most highly advanced AI created by extensive programming from SR 1337 teams while they tried to make a more intelligent bot for counter strike and some "interesting" wiring decisions.

This building is mine now.

You are the company.

I guess you can give yourself ALL your money then.

Hitman has an 18 certificate?

And this good company sold me it. I shall sue them for savagely ruining my tiny little mind.
