    ' to answer your question, no..You're taking it to a whole another level, lbvs. One event killed three thousand ppl, and was just over a decade ago... I am not downplaying that by any means, just saying that the majority audience of COD Ghosts
    is less likely to relate to that'.

    .

    This is why I adjusted the hypothetical release date to 2030, put it in a similar context. In 2030 both events will be similarly out of people's minds and open to being referenced.

    .

    'So for any form of entertainment to mimic or recreate that (especially on the anniversary) would be swift corporate suicide, imo'.

    .

    I have no doubt that the first people to take aim at the Twin Towers will be shunned by a horrified populace and likely face a lawsuit but I am very interested to see exactly how that goes. Corporate suicide or high-risk, edgy gesture? It will be interested.

    .

    In any case, the odds of a map featuring an exploding space shuttle, which is already obsolete technology, being released on the anniversary of an uncannily similar disaster being a coincidence is extremely unlikely. They will know what they were doing and
    it will definitely have been deliberate.

  2. well isnt it ironic that in mw2 in the toilet they had some muslim poster or something, cant remember what it was and they took that down in an hour, do you think they will re-edit the shuttle, somehow i doubt it and its obvious why

  3. Incredibly unfortunate timing, agreed, and I'm not sure what to make of it. But comparing a space exploration disaster to a massive terrorist attack is at best, ridiculous. "Well, if in 2030....." Really, Bob? You didn't used to be this... off.

    Haven't tried to new maps yet, only Extinction (although I will need to play them to shoot the hives for that one achievement), and that new Extinction map is TOUGH. I'm getting it down to killing a breeder rather fast but those challenges as well are new
    and difficult.

    [quote user="XDinoTheGreekX"]
    good observation..I didn't realize that, nor has anyone mentioned it to my knowledge. Probably just an honest error. The devs at IW were in elementary school or less, when Challeger disaster happened in '86..So I would be inclined to presume
    there is no underlying context or subliminal message here. All it is, is simply bad timing.

    Even still, if this hits the news and gains steam, heads will roll at Activision and/or IW, especially when lawsuits are filed.

    [/quote] Well, I myself was even around when it happened but I just happened to be checking my news feed on Facebook and saw something posted about the Challenger I just connected the dots because I saw it after I played a few games on Ignition and thought
    there might have been something to it maybe for publicity or as you said it could just be poor timing but I thought I should just put it out there

    All the new maps are bull&$@!!12299291!!! Actually, the whole MP is bleh. Extinction is good, however. The new map for extinction is pretty fun so far. Difficult, but fun! :D
