SCEE apologizes for GoW II party animal cruelty
In light of recent criticism being directed at their God of War II promo party in Athens, Sony Computer Entertainment Europe (SCEE) has further stated that they did not condone animal cruelty.
“Sony Computer Entertainment Europe does not in any way, shape or form condone cruelty or mistreatment of animals,” the SCEE spokesman stated. “Sony Computer Entertainment Europe takes the sensitivities of the general public and issues of animal welfare very seriously and is sorry for any offence or distress the event or perception of this event may have caused.”
At the said promo party, UK‘s Daily Mail tabloid ran an article stating that the event’s centerpiece was a “freshly decapitated” goat, as indicated in Official PlayStation Magazine. Sony has since apologized for the incident, and has promised to pull out OPM’s latest issues from news stands. There is still no word regarding the company’s stand on the boobies also sighted at the promo party. Just keep posted in case concerned animal rights groups (i.e. PETA) decide to come back with a reply.
