canterbury.gifCanterbury Cathedral isn't happy about being featured in a soon-to-be-relased -- as a location for an animated terrorist attack in the war on terror. Officials from the Cathedral have written to the makers of the game, which also features the Eiffel Tower and the Brandenburg Gate, to ask for the Cathedral segment of the game to be withdrawn.

Great move, that. Now a video game we'd never heard of is getting I bet Monte Cristo, the game's creators, can't believe their luck.

The problems with video games using historical sites a sterror targets is that anyone who is a potential terrorist can hatch ideas and plots inside their minds and do these sort of things.

One Week before te 11-IX-2001 attacks in New York and Washington, FOX TV had a film in which the World Trade Center was attacked. Hollywood even had another movie on the Twin Towers. After the 11-IX-2001 attacks, the FBI [and other government agencies interrogated staff from the Hollywood Studio and FOX TV concerning the films].
