Africa Gaming
There have been many games that have been made that are set in Africa and a lot of these games have caused people to get offended sparking huge arguments. Here are just the best ones out there at the moment.
Resident Evil 5
Resident Evil or Biohazard 5 in Japan was released earlier this year and is of course one of the many games in the Resident Evil survival horror franchise. Capcom were the ones that made this game as they always do and the game is actually the 7th in the series. Capcom did not put the game into a real African town but a fictional one known as Kijuju. Out of all of the games set in Africa it would seem this one caused the most trouble as in the first trailer the only people you were killing were black people. The game was eventually seen as not being racist.
Call Of Duty- World At War
The main story only has a couple of missions that are actually set in Africa but the race row came from the japanese and not the Africans as they thought they were being showed in the wrong way. On the other hand it is widely known that the Japanese treated all of their POW’s really badly.
Far Cry 2
Once again this game is set in a town that is made up. The time the game is set is 2008 because that is when it was released. You play a guy with maleria who is hunting someone known as the jackal. The Jackal is supplying both sides of the war with weapons. In this game you are free to move and go wherever you please which is what made it such a great game.
If you think that some of these locations look like they are worth visiting then get over to the real Africa and see what you think? Tanzania Holidays, Mozambique Holidays and of course South Africa Holidays could be the right holiday to take.
