GRAW 2 Blacklisted in Chihuahua, Mexico
Never mind the name of the state involved. There’s a weird sense of injustice to be had here. Game Politics reports that the governor of Chihuahua, Mexico has apparently ordered the confiscation of any and all copies of Tom Clancy‘s Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter 2 that surface in the Mexican state.
They cite a report from El Diario, a Mexican broadsheet, which says that the action was taken after Mayor Hector Murguia Lardizabal slammed the game for being “a crime against the intellectual capacity of Juarez residents.” We suppose the governor got wind of the announcement and decided to take action.
In any case, Game Politics also notes this statement they took from the mayor, who said that “Violent video games instill values which are upside down, and these actions are despicable because they attempt to divide the good will of the residents of American and Mexican cities.”
On the bright side, he’s probably never heard of God Hand. The stereotypical Mexican accent of one of the bosses and the liberal use of chihuahuas would have probably started a war.
