This is indeed a historic day, in which zombies of former slaves and zombies of former slave owners will be able to feast upon brains together.
AMEN!!!

Should that actually be decendants of former slaves and slave owners? since well that generation is moving on shall we say

Oh and resident evil outbreak had black playable charactors .

This game isn't racist. People just made it up.

Exactly right, just like I said, it's only when the separation is made between ethnicities and skin colour that racism is borne. That is essentially all that racism boils down to.

Racism isn't a new concept, that's been known for centuries now.

I think what he meant was that people just made this game out to be racist.

Not being racist but in Africa the people are black i think it will be racist if the zombies are white even though the credit should go to the black people and if u want to say racism u should say that there wasn't that many back mane character

well in re 4 you have to kill mexicans,
oh dear, they were spanish ffs.


I wonder why the *bleep* didn't anyone say RE4 was racist (or at least nationalistic)?






anyway, anyone who actually thinks this game is racist is a moron. that's all.


Because the people that were being killed weren't black. Serious.


And no, it isn't racist. North Africa = Mainly Blacks. Please tell me how that would be racist.

re: Racism?

The people who are still talking about skin color might want to read the entire thread. The discussion has kinda progressed beyond the whole "OMG White guy shooting black guys" subject.

Yes, I'd have to agree. We could all debate 'til we're blue in the face, but I doubt there will be any mutual finite agreement whether it is or whether it isn't.

re: Racism?

Aye its never going to be resolved but at least the NAACP have endorsed it . I guess they realized coloured people are now equally represented (well misrepresented) in fiction. There on the same level as whites now just need rest of them to realize.

re: Racism?

OK, I'm sorry to bring this thread back up, but i just saw something that helped me personally and i wanted to share it. as you know the most resent problems have to do with two scene, one where a group of people are betting up a bag and another were a woman is being dragged in to a house. now i don't know if anyone has seen the scenes in question but i just did on gametrailers in invisible walls and the bag thing i didn't get a good look at but the other one i saw, and i don't know who said it was a woman but they defiantly made assumptions because the person i saw was a man. and they were tiring to infect him (if you watch it wait for the part were they have him pined on the ground and you will see them putting some kind of viris ball in his mouth ).

i just wanted to share that case i should kind of help some people how have a problem.


BTW i think the guys that were beating up the bag may have been infected cause i saw a scene with none infected and it looked like a regular third world country with people walking around, again if you watch invisible walls its in the first thing you see when they start talking about it. so try to thing of this game like RE4. the guy that was talking in Gothic girls quote may have jumped to conclusions and got people worked up for nothing.

I still very much doubt there's anything truly racist in the game at all.

i dont think chris killing black zombies is racist...but uninfected people dragging people off and attacking something in a sack....acting like sub-human animals basically...


Did you also consider that there are actually "liberation" groups in Afica that actually do this crap.

re: Racism?

it isnt any more racist than resi 4 where the chacters were of spainish or european origin racism isnt as simple as black asian and white a white person can be racist to another white person just eg scottish saying something a bout an italian can be classed as racism. i do not think anything is inherrantly racist in this game. the villans in resi evil are predominantly white Wesker Krauser Birkin to name a few.

re: Racism?

I personally believe the game isn't racist and as a black guy I feel that it is just another case of black people playing victim.

Now my original post for this is closed now but for good reason. If I had found this one i would have posted on it
but I think you guys should cheek out this guys take on RE5 it's funny and now that I think about it pretty informative and truthful which to me is weird because the rest if this guys work is overly conservative and political (and I'm a lib) So uh yeah.
