Ok guys I know most of you are nerds except DLM (perv) I want your opinion on the following trailer.

http://www.gametrailers.com/player/22801.html

There is controversy surrounding this game. Not sure who or what organization it is, but they are saying that this game is racist and is exploiting and degrading black people.

Please add me to the "non-nerd" list...what the [censored] is this?

[mlane]

its the new resident evil game, but the point is how on earth is this racist. Is it any more racist then in RE4 where I shot up spanish farmers?????? So all spanish people are dirty blood thirsty farmers????? Was wondering what you guy's thoughts were on this.

[ship_it_trebek]

I guess I can see their point in it being degrading but FWIW I probably wouldn't have noticed anything if I didn't have the notion beforehand that it could be racist

My thoughts are that this is super nerdy. It doesn't seem racist at all to me, though.

[TheProdigy]

mlane is a huge nerd.

I am jock(albeit not so good at it), so when he talks to me on AIM I make fun of him for being a nerd and playing dumbass video games.
