What do you think of this game? contreversial or not?!
Answers: ok, so I was just on a game website called andkon, and I went to platformers, then super chick sisters. I had never played it before, it looked like a mario spoof game. Wow, was I wrong. It is a game put out by PETA, as you go along the levels, it says little "did you know" facts about KFC and how they kill the chickens. Then you raise a little PETA flag at the end of the level, and you go on the "fight the meat industry." I was so mad, I stopped playing after I realized what was going on. This is the first time I have been targeted by PETA, but I'm sure not the last. You see, they target children the most. Yall, don't take this the wrong way, I know some of you are part of PETA and I mean no offense to you, its the radical PETA members that get on my nerves, esspecially when they do these things.
the games are attacking people but i think contreversial
Ok, you got mad. It got on your nerves. But did you learn anything?
Typical PETA. I wonder how many pets they euthanized during game development.
I don't really think its that controversial. Video games are simply another medium of communication. I mean there are plenty way more violent video games out there that this one. I haven't played the PETA game myself, but I dont think its such a big deal.
Any kind of radical extremist is bound to get on my nerves.
All in all, I think fighting for a cause is great, but brainwashing is not. I'm just not sure how this game is different from games that involve killing, or games like Grand Theft Auto?
I guess you just have to play it like a game and make your own decisions about what's right and wrong.
I think anything can be controversial depending on the persons views. From what you described the game being I would think its sounds distasteful more then controversial. I remember after columbine there was a first person shooter game that was created where you played the shooters gunning down high school students. Also a lot of those free game sites you see on line ... they steal their games from other sites so they can have a huge collection. Or they encourage members to "donate" games by offering incentives. So it might be on that site not because Peta was trying to get to kids but because someone wanted some kind of incentive.
I'm not quite sure how it is controversial.
apparently you may have a distaste for education video games.
You may want to stear clear of a ps2 game called "whiplash" as you play as a long tailed weasel who is chained to a cute little bunny, the point of the game is to escape from the cruelty of the animal experimenters (product testing), all throughout the game there is cartoonish displays based upon real methods of animal experimentation. Oh yeah, its also non-PETA sanctioned.
I'm curious though, would you still be upset, if it didn't have anything to do with PETA, would you have still felt the same way? . As well, why aren't you upset that the Dairy and Meat industry target little children by being sanctioned in our schools? it appears as if you have a completely one sided view.
I'd also recommend you look up the definition of brainwashing.
Children deserve to know that the meat industry is evil.
PeTA just goes about it in an ineffective way.
Most people don't complain when the meat and dairy industries feed an endless supply of lies through their television.
If you don't like PeTA, don't play the game anymore. Some kids will take it seriously, it's their choice to learn about the suffering that animals go through.
In 2004, investigators at a KFC-supplying slaughterhouse in Moorefield, West Virginia caught workers stomping on chickens, kicking them, and violently slamming them against floors and walls. Workers also ripped the animals' beaks off, twisted their heads off, spat tobacco into their eyes and mouths, spray-painted their faces, and squeezed their bodies so hard that the birds expelled feces.
I think the Mario spoof game is very mild in comparison.
