Ripten:
"The recent controversy surrounding Sony's decision to delay the release of LittleBigPlanet, over a Qur'an reference made in one of the tracks, has many gamers flexing their memory muscle in an attempt to illustrate a double standard.
The belief is that Sony's 2006 decision to essentially ignore the Church of England's request asking for the removal of the Manchester Cathedral from their Resistance: Fall of man game, paired with the company's recent willingness to comply to the perceived wishes of a Muslim community, demonstrates favoritism."
Ripten's Chad Lakkis proceeds to explain why he thinks a business bottom line, not favoritism, is the reason behind Sony's decision to fight the Church of England and appease the offended Muslim gamer.
Times are changing, and these games would have never been made in today's climate.
Every single time someone uses this phrase whether it's music, movies, books, comics, video games, etc it's always the same claim.
The ubiquitous "they" won't allow it to be made. And every decade these claims are made the claimant completely ignores all the "offensive" material that is published when the claim is made.
In ten years, you can write a new article about how you can't make games like Helldivers 2, Resident Evil VIII, Mortal Kombat I, Dragon's Dogma 2, Alan Wake 2 etc etc etc any more.
Dead Island: "The early PC version of the zombie game swapped the playable character Purna’s Gender Wars skill with a prototype name, which shouldn’t be mentioned directly. The skill name made fun of both Purna as a character and feminists."
"Feminist Whore" lmao
ill add one more to the list.

its ridiculous tho, especially since they'd still be able to find their place in alot of places in the world. except america of course ha. and maybe Australia.
ppl are so sensitive these days. ha. but it is what it is.
They're not offensive.
And we need another Fat Princess. Fantastic little game!
Some people just have no sense of humour if this sort of thing offends them. They need to lighten up and stop taking themselves so seriously.
The PlayStation 3 may not have been the strongest generation for Sony, but there were still some diamonds in the rough that deserve a revisit as PS5 remasters.
Even if they could just remaster and put on PSVR2, some would still look great as VR titles and could do a whole lot to bolster the headset w these exclusives! I'd imagine the investment of reworking these titles into VR would be way less than building new games from the ground up, and they could be amazing experiences, and VR often makes flat games feel fresh again. The Resistance and Killzone games are particularly what I want to see!!
The time is perfect for a resistance fall of man game campaign coop multiplayer
Resistance was ok but Warhawk and Starhawk was better and kept me coming back for almost a decade of fun and petty revenge on the loud mouth unskilled players 🤣
Edit I loved capture the flag dropping the pot on the flag carrier was extremely satisfying as well as transforming your plane in bot form and stumping them to death 😱
While it's been on ice for as long as it was around, the Resistance franchise has no shortage of quality.
My take:
Single player
3, 2, 1
Multiplayer
3, 1, 2
Overall
3, 2, 1
I beat the lengthy single player in 1 multiple times and spent hours in the online too. Plus 1 featured my home town! Special mention to the audio design in 1: playing that with surround headphones blew me away.
Note: I have the platinum for Resistance 2.
I only played the 3 main Resistance titles. My ranking would be;
1. Resistance 3
2. Resistance: Fall of Man
3. Resistance 2
Man I loved 3's campaign. Another gem stuck on the ps3 and who knows if insomniac will go back to the franchise.
Business, shmizness. The fact is that Sony is being a bunch of pussies.
OMG SONY ARE RACIST BECAUSE THEY REMOVED LINES BY A ||MUSLIM ARTIST|| FROM THEIR GAME!!!1111onethree`grave11!!& quot;"$£2
this cant really b compared to the cathedral issue. The cathedral issue was risen months after the games release! Plus the cathdral was a map. and part of the games stroyline.
the music in LBP is just music. and LPB isnt released yet. music can be easily changed. i would have liked it bettr if they did a patch instead. but whatever...
Ok @sshole, you're just assuming every terrorist is muslim
racist moron
oh and n4gzz's last line, you got dissed big time twiTlex
I say sony should give up making ps3 console's and concentrate on tv's and leave the console making to Microsoft where the brains are.
