Islamic fundy video-game mods - hoax?
A reader on Dvorak's forum says that the supposed Islamic fundamentalist video games where players are guerrillas in turbans stalking invading soldiers in tanks is a hoax:
The video the retarded writer is referring to is not made by terrorists. It was made by a member of the Planetbattlefield forums. The voice of in the video is not a terrorist - it is Trey Parker from the movie Team America World Police. The article also claims it is a mod created by terrorist. It is not a mod. It is the Special Forces Expansion pack that anyone can buy.Link (Thanks, Gregory!)
Update: Andrew sez, "Check out Special Force, a game from Lebanon that chronciles the Israeli Lebanon conflict from the Islamic side. It's basically CounterStrike. It's actually more popular than Half Life in Korea."
