Every call of duty modern warfare game.. it's like they have a special on racial stereotyping.

If you’re going to watch tele, you should watch Scooby Doo. That show was so cool because every time there’s a church with a ghoul, or a ghost in a school. They looked beneath the mask and what was inside?

Came to this thread expecting evidence of racial fubars in giant commercial titles.

Disappoint.

*edit* Just saw that Rev.Rye posted another video on this, still, it's worth bringing up.

There is a video game called 'ethnic cleansing' made by aryan racists. You basically get to mow down a load of black and hispanic people.

Here's some game play if you're interested:

I'm not too surprised to know that it didn't win any GOTY awards...

Now that I'm looking at the Actual content of these games, I realise that it's no wonder that the video I linked to lacked actual visuals from the games. They look like shit!
And is it just me or do the National Alliance seem to be big fans of Chickenfoot? Their logo keeps popping up in the gameplay video.

Speaking of the elder scrolls, there is a fair bit of 'fantasy racism' shall we say.

For instance, the stormcloaks hating every other race, particularly the dark elves in Windhelm. Also the beast races get called all sorts, and in previous games such as Morrowind were used as slaves. The lore of the elder scrolls explains in a fair bit of detail how the beast races were treated.

I guess this qualifies as 'racism' too.

I suppose as well that people can make arguments that some of the races are stereo-typical as well.

Well yes, I agree but Elder Scrolls casts racism in a negative light where as this trys to make it sound like a good thing.

A good point. Although you can play through with the Stormcloaks and 'take Skyrim for the Nords'. Then again they allow you to do it with an Orc too Undecided
