Should we boycott Shadow Complex?

Should we boycott Shadow Complex?

For a game that has received almost nothing but unanimous critical acclaim and has been hotly anticipated by gamers ever since it was announced at E3, that seems to be quite a bizarre, almost ridiculous question. If you are unaware of the recent controversy surrounding Shadow Complex, you could be forgiven for thinking that the boycotters were enraged PS3 fans, lashing out at an exclusive Xbox 360 game.

However, Shadow Complex is currently at the center of a touchy and thorny political issue, as it has become apparent that the game is based upon a world co-created by Orson Scott Card, a notorious writer who viciously campaigns against same-sex marriage and believes homosexuality to be a sexual dysfunction.

Card will be making money from Chair Entertainment's recently released Xbox Live Arcade game. Hence the question, should we boycott Shadow Complex?

Boycotting this means you boycott the developers who worked hard on this title. Is it worth it to sever pay to a homophobe?

Only a homo would boycott something because someone is against homosexuality. Personally, I dont think the game is worth 15 bucks anyways, and I wouldnt but it cause of that. Especially since I played the whole game for free via glitch. But to not buy a game because of one individual's beliefs is nit picking, childish, crybaby ranting. Get over it. You are in the minority thus making your feelings about this irrelevant.

There is NOTHING homophobic or nothing anti same-sex that is in the game. Only dumbasses like to start problems that were never there.

Orson is actually a good sci-fi writer. If you ignored everything he does because you disagree with his political views, you would miss out on some good books like Ender's Game.

I don't share his views on politics, but he's entitled to his opinion. I would understand a boycott if Shadow Complex dealt with homosexuality, but it doesn't.. at all.

Orson Scott Card is a Mormon, that should clear up why he is such a dumba$$. In any case the game story has almost nothing to do with his book, it only takes place in the universe. It would be like not buying a K. Anderson Star Wars novel because George Lucas raped Star Wars and Indiana Jones.

"Homophobic" has become too broad a definition. If you disagree with homosexual marriage you are NOT a homophobe. Its your opinion. Disagreeing or agreeing is every man and womans right. It is not legally or morally wrong to have an opposing viewpoint. Its interesting that homosexuals and supporters claim the higher ground whenever someone doesn't share their opinion...simply by labeling them a homophobe. Agenda? Of course not (sarcasm).

Boycott a game all you want. Your missing out on a great game made by very talented devs.

If I boycotted every game whose creators' political viewpoints were different than mine I would have missed out on a great number of games.

For example, I don't agree with some of the political viewpoints expressed by Ken Levine, creator of Bioshock, and I don't even agree with some of the subtle political messages found in the game itself, but if that would have stopped me I would have missed out on one of my favorite games this generation.

Shadow Complex is sublime, and the fact that one of the co-writers is apparently opposed to homosexuality has absolutely no bearing on that.

I am in two minds on this issue. On the one hand if it were the BNP or KKK co creating the game I wouldn't touch it with a barge pole but then again I'm not gay so it would be very easy to be casual about this author's homophobia. I'm sure it won't affect many people's decision to buy.

He believes in something different. We all talk about "tolerance" but then we do not allow a man or woman to practice their beliefs when it comes to their religion. Sad really, to know that the Homosexual crowd are a bunch of hypocrites. If they believe it is right then fine, but let others have differing opinions and stop with the thin skinned homophobe and heterophobe comments.

Just a personal issue in my book. Had the game been developed from a book which knocks gay lifestyle then maybe I'd feel differently but here the only issue is whether you feel OK giving some of your cash to a homophobic fool.

Noone should criticise people who want to boycott this though-surely if you knew someone was a bigot and didn't want them to profit from your gaming then that's fair enough and does NOT make yopu a moron. The only moron involved is OSC-who really is a douche, imo.

Not an issue for me, mind, as the game doesn't grab me at all.

1.23 - "Phobia" is not the same as opinion

There can be no "Tolerance" if you boycott everyone who doesn't share your opinions.

Card has a right to his opinion, which is technically the majority opinion given that the majority of CA voters voted not to legalize gay marriage. He seems to be advocating personal and political action supporting his own religious and moral ideals. When did that equal shaming and shunning in the United States?

It's REALLY sad to see how far the powers that be have brought society down the slippery slope. All these sheep cry about free speech but act like nazis the minute someone says something or holds a viewpoint they HAVE BEEN TOLD is wrong. I mean you can't even ARGUE the right and wrong of being homosexual without being called a narrow minded biggot. Forget religions, morality, culture or any of that and lets base this on somehing that can't be argued. THE MEDICAL DANGERS OF A HOMOSEXUAL LIFESTYLE. If you have no idea what that is, look it up on google.
But thats besides the point, this man has THE GOD GIVEN RIGHT TO PREACH AGAINST HOMOSEXUALITY IF IT GOES AGAINST HIS MORAL BELIEFS. When will you politically correct retards understand that?

1.32 - @consoldtobots

Presumably you don't smoke, drink alchohol, have unprotected sex, drive an internal combustion engine car, eat red meat regularly, weigh more than your ideal weight (BMI 24-26), own or fire guns or excercise less than an hour a day. If you do none of those things you can preach about the dangers of a homosexual lifestyle. The evidence on each of those things is pretty indisputable.

In which state is it illegal to be a homosexual?

If you are making your statement based only preference then presumably you disagre with your own countries rights and freedoms when it come to homosexuals?

I'm gonna make an assumption and say you're from the USA in which case you should look at the evidence that suggests the happiest people in the world are scandinavians in particular Swedes, East asians are amongst the most intelligent people from birth on average and have some of the highest life expectancy figures in the world. Somone could easily say the medical dangers of being American are not worth it.

I don't think my lifestyle or beliefs are superior to everyone elses try it sometime, you may learn a thing or two.

When you start trying to discriminate against people or lifestyles you disagree with then one day someone will look at you and decide you're not up to scratch. Who's next? Blacks, jews, koreans, homeless people, the disabled? What about old people? Should they be subject to the same prejudice you have for homosexuals? Evidence shows that being old carries numerous medical dangers.

3.3 - Religious people always bring the unnatural argument...

I'm not gay, but I'm always confounded when it comes to religious homophobia.

Scientists have studied animal and found that homosexuality exists there too. We humans have evolved from animals, so no wonder homosexuality exists in us too.

Research has also found that the more older siblings of the same sex a person has, the chance of being homosexual increases. It's in our genes.

If God created nature, he also created homosexuality: So how can it be a sin?

3.8 - @ andron, I'm neither gay or a religious zealot...

However it seems to me that those who have a religous belief against homosexuality have every right to "feel" that way. As long as their behavior isn't oppressive or violent we can't look down on them anymore than we can look down on homosexuals. Also the studies you speak of are not conclusive, scientist have been wrong on many controversial subjects throughout human history...there are new findings all the time that dispute old findings. Either way there are alot of religions and different beliefs but almost all of them that I know of are against homosexuality and in all the religions I know of God(or whatever they call him) is the creator of all life but he also gives us "free will" to choose between whats "right and wrong" or else he could have just made everybody at saint I guess(j/k)....but by your logic God is also responsible for all violence, and every other bad behavior done by man, "So how can it be a sin?" Now again, I'm not saying homosexuality is wrong, but I also don't think for a minute God is responsible for it....at least not in the manner you speak of.

btw, Shadow Complex is a great game and this is a ridiculous reason for a boycott.

Well if it's written in the Bible, that's what christianity is. (Lev 20:13, Rom 1:26-32 if you really wanna check)

If you're christian and don't support this statement, you're a hypocrite. That's how it works, wether you want it or not. If you're angry at me for saying this, well you're going against the will of god. Think about it.

Christianity is everything that's written in the Bible. Not just the parts you choose.

I hate to say it, but Masamori is actually right. Since the "Hell" we know is a christian invention, and the Bible says that gay people go to hell, well... gay people go to hell. Apparently.

(I'm atheist btw. And just to make things clear, I consider homosexuals as equals and I'm against anyone who disagrees. Just watch Freddy Mercury singing live and you'll probably agree.)

If a great game was made by a Nazi, I'd still buy it. When playing a game, I don't take into account the morals or politics of the person behind it. I just don't care.

Not to mention, I am against gay marriage as well. Although, I am for gays being able to have civil unions as well as the financial benefits that come along with it. I want them to be happy. The only part that I have a problem with is the holy matrimony part because I feel it's disrespectful to the Christian religion to have two people of the same sex marry.

Shadow Complex is every bit as good as the reviews suggest. It is actually one of my favorite games now. Right up there with full retail releases. It's that good.

Now all they have to do is fix the crappy game. Fat Princess = FAIL

Way to go Orson Scott Card! He has the right idea and I for one am glad I bought this game and can't refer this game enough! It's a great game!

I bet you can find various people with twisted views in most development teams as well. I don't give a damn as long as their views aren't reflected in the games.

They do know that boycotting something makes it more appealing in the public eye. Also, you would want to play the game just to see what creative ways he uses to bash them within the game. To bad there aren't any to my knowledge. I don't hate gay people, but I love creativity.

The first good game on the 360 in 09 is an arcade game. Pretty sad if you ask me.

It's also pretty sad to see the only decent game you'll have this year is Uncharted 2, even though I despised Uncharted 1 for being the official-male version of Tomb Raider. Ahh... The creativity and originality.

Once again the PS3 fanboys think only exclusives. What a surprise! I have been playing older exclusives that i haven't had the chance to play yet and a whole bunch of multiplats. Oops, i mentioned multiplats. I know they don't exist on your PS3rd but man are you missing out.

Is your pic Obama because you like black d!ck or because you think you're cool? I know your not smart enough so it has to be one of the options i mentioned.

Who cares if you are playing older 360 exclusives? The point is the 360 doesn't 1 great exclusive in 09 so far (shadow complex is an arcade game so I really wouldn't count it as a full game)

"s your pic Obama because you like black d!ck or because you think you're cool?"

Is your pic a 360 logo because you are a racist? Obama is as white as he is black btw, so don't be a dumbass.

uncharted is the 2nd decent game the PS3 got in it's lifetime. pretty sad if you ask me. killzone 2 was #1, but with a fun factor lower than any other shooter out there, crappy controls and a controller that doesn't fit in your hands it's an epic fail.

Have fun with that, loser! I'll play the real game, not some game you created in LBP. LMAO!

Man oh man, how i love PS3rd fanboys! Every day they come up with something both stupid and amusing.

When you finally get around to recreating the entire game (and it's BIG) pm me. I would love to try it! I'll even borrow my friends blu ray player to give it a shot and compare the two.

@ HemDroid

How's that peach fuzz coming along on your tiny pecker? You write like you're ten years old so don't talk to me about puberty. Do you even know what a vagina is? Ask mommy, she'll show you. Try not to blush and giggle. Instead, choke that monkey all night long and be proud of the peach fuzz growing between your legs.

I learned today that if you get angry at somebody else's choice in something that means that you are insecure with your won decision. This usually takes place in the teen phase of life.

I like the part where I can afford a 360, and a Ps3 and a high end computer and not have to fanboy rage on every article. I'll probably buy the game anyways, who cares about Orson Scott Card.. it's a game.. leave it at that.
