Racist SOF?
by Maarten Goldstein, Aug 31, 2000 11:40am PDTThanks to Phoebus for directing us to this news story on FGNOnline, where someone had too much time on their hands and started looking for racist subtext in Raven's Soldier of Fortune. Apparently, in the Iraqi missions you don't get punished for killing civilians, unlike in the New York subway mission. An amusing quote from someone at the Jordon Ambassy in London, who is head of the Iraqi Interest Section
"It shows the mentality of the American gung-ho, the cowboy, that he's always winning. It's reminiscent of the old movies, with the white guy John Wayne always beating the black guys, who are always hoodlums and thieves."

I want them to post a screenshot of a Muslim or Hindu popping a cap in a whiteman's head, in full gore mode, with a fucking sniper scope.
Fuck it, I want Raven to render an .avi with Saddam Hussein giving the command order to launch nukes at the White House, and then show a terrorist making a pregnant white tourist mother suck on a gun barrel with her hands up and begging, as he pulls the trigger. All the while Saddam is laughing while the American flag burns in the background.
I want to see Habib in 32bit color at the local Quickie Mart pull an assault rifle out from under the counter, load a clip and spray hot revenge all over the white guy that asked for a straw for his Squishie.
I want the SOF expansion pack to be named 'God Damn You White Bastards, Die!', with a subtitle 'Revenge Is Hotter Than A Muslim Robe'.
I want the instruction manual to be printed in arabic, all 14 different dialects.
Will that make everyone happy?
Thanks!

Btw i don't think there were ever any black guys in John Wayne movies.
its people like this who actually keep racism alive by always clinging to some comment someone makes or seeing some racing remark where there isnt on.
Come on guys, we have our differences, but is that a matter of race?

but of course.. this wouldn't be allowed by the assholes up top..
so, I figure they could just pretend that theres a plot (a la dues Ex)
because..we all know... the Point of Deus Ex was to kill as many people as possible... they threw in the plot just for kicks.
I mean really... the swords in hong kong? now that was fun..
