I’ll be the first to admit that I love video games.  I play sports games, guitar hero, action adventure games, and first person shooters.  A few years ago I began playing Call of Duty because a friend of mine had it.  I played it, I liked it, and like millions of other gamers I eagerly anticipated the release of Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2.

My stomach is strong so its hard for me to be shocked.  The video games I’ve played involve sex, gang violence, murder, and drug usage.  With that under my belt I was sure that I’d seen it all.  I was wrong.

One of the earlier missions in Call of Duty MW2 involves the killing of civilians at an airport (see the video above).  In the mission you stroll through an airport chopping down civilians with machine guns and automatic rifles. Once you open fire a chorus of screams, bullets, and broken glass ring out.  The carnage (and the lives of about 100 make believe citizens) is over about 4 minutes after it starts.

Needless to say, the Activision team has caught hell for this mission.
