5 Video Games The Media Always Get Wrong (And 5 That Could Change Their Minds)

5 Video Games The Media Always Gets Wrong...

5. Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2

url-19 We all know that infamous mission: No Russian. Everybody and their brother know about that mission. Your mother watched the horrific report on the news about No Russian, but does that mean she knows a thing about No Russian? No€ uh, Russian (sorry, had to). The media would like you to believe you are a terrorist who is forced to gun down innocent civilians in an airport. Truth is, that is technically true, but they forgot some very important points: 1. In no way are you forced to do this mission. In fact, you are continuously given the option to skip this mission all together. You are asked when you start this game if you want to skip the controversial material - if you say no the game once again asks you are you sure. 2. Once again you have the option to skip this mission. If you decide you are okay with the content and then are absolutely horrified by the chaos ensuing before you, all you have to do is pause the game. There at the bottom of all the text options on the side is the option to skip mission. This is not on the menu at any other point in the campaign. 3. You do not have to fire a single shot! You can calmly walk right through the chaos without pressing a button once, without drawing any suspicion from your colleagues. In this interview with Fox and Friends (you can already tell it is going to be good, right?) a gaming blogger tries to get these points across about this game, unfortunately he stumbles while the other guest (who is obviously against said games) smirks with pleasure.
