Can some people be so distasteful and obscene to do this to such a tragedy like this. This is like making a video game where you're Hitler and you go to concentration camps and kill Jews. Its about the same thing.

I am what some people might call, abrasive or maybe, unfeeling, but in my opinion, this is incredibly disrespectful and completely tasteless. I hope someone apologizes to the families of the victims for this travesty.

I like it. Whatever your opinion is it's obviously done it's job as art very well.

Germans don't have a problem playing call of duty [- when they killed Germans-]

therefore you should not have any problems with any type of game related with true events.

still another 15 years left for the tragedy to become funny[-South Park..Anyone?-], but i guess it is about time we play it on a video game.

Is it okay to make movies and mass produce t-shirts of the event but not video games?, how many Americans play a pearl harbor video game?

i still don't get you America.

Long Live ART!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
