Title: Re: Banned: Super Columbine Massacre RPG... Post by: Izret101 on January 17, 2007, 12:39:20 PM I still want to play this.
How long did it take you Leon? IMO it is retarded that they pushed it thru to the finals only to then decide it was distasteful and cut it. Title: Re: Banned: Super Columbine Massacre RPG... Post by: The Metamorphosing Leon on January 17, 2007, 03:44:17 PM I beat it in a short amount of time. You can do it pretty quick, although the more time you spend in the school leveling the easier time you'll have when you get to the hell section.

Title: Re: Banned: Super Columbine Massacre RPG... Post by: Speedy_NES on January 17, 2007, 04:29:11 PM I don't see how the game can be compared to the movie Elephant...the game is blatantly about Columbine, whereas Elephant is just a movie showing a situation similar to Columbine (correct me if I'm wrong).
Title: Re: Banned: Super Columbine Massacre RPG... Post by: cverz2 on January 17, 2007, 06:34:34 PM This probably wasn't the best choice of game making. It was only a matter of time before )t would get national attention and be addressed by higher authorities.
To each his own, but I think I would have to skip playing this. I've played numerous murder or shooting games. HELL, one of my favorite games is the Hitman series. But when you take a national tragedy and turn it into a game. That's probably going a little to far. But, that's just my opinion. :o Title: Re: Banned: Super Columbine Massacre RPG...

Personally, I don't think the game should have been pulled. It is a method of expression, and we don't go around telling movie makers that their movies are the scum of the earth. The same should hold true for games. Does that mean there should be better restriction on the sale of games? Possibly, but to completely blacklist a game due to its content could be considered as embarking on a slippery slope, one that I think most people would rather not touch.

Title: Re: Banned: Super Columbine Massacre RPG... Post by: Ghost Soldier on January 18, 2007, 08:36:09 AM Sounds like the doom controversy again with the columbine shooters. I agree this game is in bad taste but its still an expression. Traderjake said it best.
Title: Re: Banned: Super Columbine Massacre RPG... Post by: The Metamorphosing Leon on January 18, 2007, 03:28:57 PM Yup, the damn commies strike again.
It is a crappy game though, one that shouldn't be of any discussion simply because of how much it sucks. Title: Re: Banned: Super Columbine Massacre RPG... Post by: TurboGrafxer AKA DCer on January 18, 2007, 11:02:30 PM reminds me of 9/11 and the un-release of propeller arena for dreamcast.
