Uncomfortable plot summaries

Via a funny thread on GWJ. Wow, some of those game plot aren’t really politically correct.

Here’s some of the best:

• Half Life: Nerd screws up at work. Goes on rampage with crowbar.
• Half Life 2: Unemployed nerd can’t talk to girl. Goes on rampage with crowbar.
• Metal Gear Solid Series: Dysfunctional family plays hide and seek.
• Katamari Damacy: Gay dad makes son play with balls.
• Gears of War: Lumberjacks go on killing spree.
• Lemmings: Good Samaritan Thwarts Suicide Cult.
• Nethack: Email symbol ethnically clenses rest of ASCII character set.
• HALO: Super soldier follows commands of voice in head.
• Shadow of the Colossus: Necrophiliac vagrant obeys invisible voices, slaughters indigenous wildlife.
• Bioshock: Man kidnaps little girls, assaults mentally ill.

And my favorite

• Pokemon: Children implicated in underground animal fighting ring.
