Escape from Gitmo: aka terrorist recruiting game for Xbox

Game company lionises jihadists and makes a game where you get to kill American soldiers as you escape Gitmo. The company who makes it claims its getting hate-mail because of the game, especially from Americans. By hate-mail one assumes that a game about terrorists escaping a prison might not exactly be welcome when we are at war with those terrorists.

Oh yes, the game company is based in some Middle Eastern country right? Nope, try Scotland to be more accurate. Then again the name of the head of the company is called Zarrar Chishti. He thinks it will sell well in the Middle East. I wonder where the profits of the game are going?

In their next game they plan to put the gamer in the role of an SS guard in a concentration camp putting down a rebellion...



You notice it hasn't got any game play, but just a bloke sitting in a cell.

If they want to market in the Middle East maybe they should be operating the Middle East.

This is the anglosphere and we don't look kindly on this sort of crap these days.
