Well, the church doesnt appear to care about that...

And i dont get the problem with destroying a monument on a VIDEOGAME! It's not real, so i dont really get what's their point.

Sony is already screwed with the over priced PS3.

This just adds on to it.

It was also beacuse of the actual fighting in a sacred place. I just think that Sony was maybe a little careless by putting in the church.

It's a pretty hard stage, there are loads of leapers. But there's also a new weapon there. :rolleyes:

Bad, I spent 100 € on the new bathroom.

And a religious place is nothing to mess with.

I think they are just doing it to get
Sony’s money. It is just a game it
is not like you are actually going into
a real church and shooting it up. If an
event of someone coming into the
church and shooting it up actually happened
then I do not think it would be appropriate.
Games like assassinate JFK and Virginia tech.
are inappropriate not this.

Why do you think was the reason of the Virginia Tech Massacre? Now tell me, do you want some korean guy to go to a church and shoot up everybody there just like he did in his game?

Unless you're mentally disturbed, you can set a line between fiction and reality.

Honestly, that would be awesome. :cool:

A church is different though, its a sacred and holy place where people can go to worship and pray, and Sony mad a bad choice by putting it in Resistance.

I've never actually played the game but I've seen videos and its apparently an amazingly good game.

They are allowed to put it into the game if they get permission, call of duty had to get permission to map the areas and get the cities names

Right, it is Sci-Fi no need to have it be resembling something real, they just should have made up one, it couldn't have been easier.
Sony, is getting what they deserve:| .
Look at Halo, it's Sci-Fi do you think they had to have a real building in there game.......:?:
And it is also because you can't use a public building in something to earn money with-out the owners/president's FULL consent, Which Sony didn't get.
The should get sued:!:
