Lol @ Tom Mcshea dude it seems to me you want a realistic shooter instead of a Arcade shooter. You can't start complaining why is this an arcade shooter I want it to be a simulation. It doesn't matter what you want, it's about what the developer wants it to be and they are clearly not catering this for you. Thank god they are not as well! I don't want a game not to be fun! Go play a simulation. Clearly the majority disagree with you, take that as a lesson and learn from it.
Everybody can agree that heterosexuality is 'normal'. So if you release a game that is that has some heterosexual content, it won't be that big of a deal. Putting in homosexual content on the other hand does cause a big deal. All religious people and people that believe homosexuality to be immoral are offended and quite a few will end up not buying the game. If you want to make sales, just stick to the option of least complaints. It's as simple as that.
Well done Gamespot and thank you for posting this article! I completely support this article. The majority of gamers these days have no manners, lack social skills, are rude, think they are "Leet", think everybody else is a "noob" and they know everything better. Here is hoping that some people might actually learn from this article.
