The Church of England vs Resistance: Fall of Man and SCE
You may or may have not have seen it on the BBC the otherday, but The Chruch of England are threatening to sue Sony Computer Entertainment or have Resistance: Fall of Man removed from the shelves.
The Church of England have expressed with discust after noticing that a level in Resistance: Fall of Man is inside a church where gunbattles obviously take place. The Bishop of Manchester had this to say:
“For a global manufacturer to re-create one of our great cathedrals with photo-realistic quality and then encourage people to have guns battles in the building is beyond belief and highly irresponsible.”
To which Sony Rep David Willson replied, in a statement in the Times Newspaper:
“It is entertainment, like Doctor Who or any other science fiction. It is not based on reality at all. Throughout the whole process we have sought permission where necessary.”
The church is demanding that the game be pulled from the shelves and have an official applogy from Sony or they will be forced to take legal action. Resistance: Fall of Man is the top seller for the Sony Playstation 3 by selling over a million copies worldwide, there is little or no chance that this game will be withdrawn from sale.
