They're in Africa
There's a parasite infecting these people to make them extremely rage-ified
You have to kill them, because they're trying to kill you
How the hell is that racist?

Then your friends are idiots. I mean, I dont see any white people calling the first RE games racist because you shot white zombies.

It's a scary thing but I have to agree with Lucy.

First games took place in america: you shoot american zombies.
4th game takes place in spain: you shoot spanish zombies
fth game takes place in africa: you shoot african zombies as well as some people that looks like muslims as well as something that looks like a spiff-up from the RE4 ganados.
It's only logical that you shoot people belonging in their environment.

I'd say it's more racist to replace every person in the game with white americans. You go to spain: only americans there.
You go to africa: only white americans there. That would be rasist: to exclude the black/or any other origin from the game.

And also. The 2nd chapter of the game is more or less just native africans with maskas and such, grown larger and almost grey.
The last part is pretty much zombies. They might look like black people but thye are grey and have all the classic zombie features.

This is a good point as well. In GTA SA and all the other GTAs I cn remember: you cna shoot black people without any reason.
In Re5. You can only shoot at the ones with plagas inside them.

1st off I already said that about the first RE games and Lucas said i got pissed off :/ *sigh*
Second I know they are stupid I was pointing out how they tohught they were racist when Prpl said they weren't yes I don't think they are either I was just making the point some people think they are because they are stupid.

If your afraid of controversy, then let people chose to play as Indians or Mexicans or black people. And while your at it, read up on horses and let pepole chose their mount.

Nah, add a friendly village of natives and everything is cool I'd say.

Alright alright guys. It would be cool if you started another topic on this, as I don't want my whole game thread about the controversy of racism in games. But it is a good debate

Too much racism talk I'd say. If you're a cowboy, your natural enemy is Indians. That's not saying Indians are evil or nothing.

Like Prpl said, encountering friendly natives works just fine. A Native American party member is even better.

But a white man travelling with an Indian is just as bad as an Indian. They shoot them natives!

And it would be kinda odd as well in a cowboy game I guess. In movies, yeah sure. They met somewhere, saved life and all that. But I'm not sure you can pull it off in a game without actually showing the event and then have some town people hostile against the guy.

Eh, some games have the hero traveling around with a monster or a robot. I'm sure the townsfolk can tolerate an Indian in your entourage.

There are various Indian tribes, some hostile, some not. The party member's from a friendlier one.
