Most racist moment in Video Game history?
What is, in your oppinion, the most reacist moment in gaming histroy?
(other then people in online games popping off the "N word" every 10 seconds)

Here is my personal favourite Smile



Atheism is a non-prophet organisation. - A dusty old book that I found that must be completely true because someone wrote it down.

Does "It's-a me: Mario!" count?
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'

I think that title goes to the game "Ethnic Cleansing", which, among other things, requires you to run around killing black people and jews, as well as Ariel Sharon.

O.o I thought you were joking, then I googled it. HOLY CRAP!

Here's a video of reviews of three racist games, including ethnic cleansing.

Alas, there is no footage of these games in the actual video. It's just the audio over stock footage of the civil rights movement and WW2.

Well, how about Dawn of War(40K, on PC)? I enjoyed putting swastikas on my space marine's pauldrons and using them to cleanse and purge all aliens, mutants and heretics as the nasty space nazis they are.

It's also the name of a NS punk band from America.

I think the point of the topic has more to do with the games themselves having racist elements, as opposed to various ways the players can project their own racism into the game. I used to like spelling dirty words with Alphabetti Spaghetti but I wouldn't go so far as to say there are perverted hidden messages in every tin.

Well, Warhammer 40k setting is already very racist in itself. Especially looking at things from a human or eldar perspective. On the other hand, some races are rather very egalitarian, you probably know if you are interested in it. Like Necrons and Tyranids, they want to eliminate or nomnom you regardless of what you are, being alive is enough for them I guess.
