Modern Warfare 3 to be banned in the UK?

4.3
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3's Reveal Trailer, which shows scenes of terrorism on the London Underground, is reported to have led to calls for the game to be banned, reports the Daily Mail.

The Daily Mail is comparing the London Underground scenes to the 7/7 terrorist attacks in London, with those affected unhappy about the likeness found in Activision's guaranteed smash hit.

Vivienne Pattison of Mediawatch UK has "concerns" because "these games are hyper-real," adding MW3 "is in incredibly poor taste".

This isn't the first time Call of Duty has skirted with controversy. Modern Warfare 2 was heavily criticised by some for its No Russian level, which allowed players to shoot civilians at an airport while taking on the role of a terrorist.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 will be released worldwide on November 8.

Banning makes no sense! They just will get their copy from another country if it gets banned. Just like me with Gears of War 1+2 :D because its banned in Germany -.-

Ok, Slow Down,
If this game is banned from the UK then people will just switch to ebay for all their goods, then people who ordered of ebay will start buying from amazon, THEN ebay will be loaded with sales UK Full of illegal copys of mw3 but by the time this has all happened ANOTHER CoD Will Be Announced!

Below this line is a shit ton of stereo-typical bullshit which if you posted it, you are retarded.

Also go call the germans butthurt, they banned World at War in their country due to nazi-zombies. Oh yeah, if you could read you'd see that we're not banning it, it was suggessted by less than 1000 readers of "The Daily Mail" who are all ready massive ****.

chipsandmash1 nooo i wanna pwn some fat american nerds on there D:
i think its funny that the only thing british people can say oh your fat eat mcdonalds allthough only 20% of america is fat
that is the biggest guess i have ever seen... the facts show that almost 40% of america is fat... the brits have a right to call us fat bc most of us eat fast food every day and dont eat healthy... but... the brits should shut their mouths bc for the majority of America that isnt fat (most of us) we are successful... and make money... which is why America is the most successful country and we arent pus*ies so we dont get upset over a video game
40% of us fat? are you stupid dude. seriously. that's not based off total population. that's like 1 community. think about it. go to school count the fat kids. guarntee if your school size is 1000 you have no more then 40 fat kids. and its like that in any other country that can afford food.


lol yea dude for real there is not as much fat people in america as every other country thinks there is, everyone in the UK are just a bunch of ****
