Being a bit of a geek as I am, I was reading a fair bit of stuff the other day on Resident Evil 5 (a game due out in a year or so). For anyone who knows nothing about 'the 'Resident Evil' franchise its basically a case of humans fighting off hoards of zombies.
There has been a load of debate on the Internet/Youtube basically saying that the game is racist because the zombies in it are 'black' and thus the game depicts black people as being violent/murderers etc. The game is set in Africa by the way.
I think it is getting crazier and crazier by the day as to what constitutes racism.
Heres the trailer by the way in case you are interested (it does look brilliant like although obviously not a patch on some of the quality on a zx spectrum/c64 )

Looks a good game for sure, As are all the Resident Evil games, Not sure on the "Racism" issue, If the games set in Africa and the Zombies are taking over the local life, Then surely the local life is going to be black?
Still time for them to change it, If the PC brigade get to em' first!
