9/11 Simulator on Greenlight. Goal of the game is to fly into the Twin Towers. Update: Banned.

Oh someone making a game(or atleast trying to look like they are making) on something which I dont approve of.Report,report report ! (Upvoted xD)

Downvoted and reported. Saw the same two "devs" have another slenderman knockoff on greenlight as well. Went ahead and downvoted that as well.

Wonder what the dlc will be like?

Thus so far "Freedom of Speech". I see many hatefull things in the world that people are ok with it because they say its freedom of speech. So I guess in that logic, that this is ok.

I don't see why this is distasteful, while war games set back in Korea, Vietnam, WW2 and more recent Desert Storm are okay.

Dont people have to pay 100 dollars to get on greenlight?

I mean, sure id probably troll alot more if I had unlimited funds, but damn.

cruel...

It seems I've managed to slip under their radar with my subliminal messages. ;)

"Dis Original and Wonderful creatioN deserVes tO be immorTalized on stEam"

We have games about WW1/WW2, the Vietnam war, the modern war in Afghanistan (and subsequently the Taliban), serial killing, invading modern countries and nuclear attacks against modern real world cities all of which show relatively little concern for those being killed or presenting an accurate and un-romanticized depiction of war. A 9/11 game is just considered worse because it is seen as more controversial and it is more of an open wound. I would argue that there are more people in North America who have been personally effected or know someone personally effected by war than 9/11 simply because the number of people alive who have served in the armed forces or immigrated from a country that suffered its effects. Pretty much any game about this or other subjects such as Columbine are almost inherently distasteful because almost no one making or buying such a game about 9/11 would want it to be any other way. If it is a joke then it is even worse, if it isn't then it knows it has a niche(unfortunately). If it actually attempted to approach the subject matter with some thought, understanding and tact then I don't think a game that has scenes of 9/11 (even flying the plane) should be banned because it is within free speech. Video games should be allowed to tackle tough and complex subject matter, but it is also within Steam's rights to ban a game that they are not comfortable with. Personally I don't think it should be published in any form simply because it would do more harm than good especially because it would further degrade the video game industries public image and would have no real benefit to anyone.

One of the devs removed himself from the page. MiCReiT is in the screenshot and an announcement, and I saw him in the 'created by' section. I refreshed the page, and he's gone.

Still better than Woodcutter Simulator.

In C&C Red Alert 2 you can destroy the World Trade Center towers to get bonus money.

Quite poor production quality, though I don't see how it's any worse than those war simulators that Americans mass produce.

not funny, i'd rather play pooping simulator

He loves me if you read the comment section youll understand :P

I'm not angry or upset, so much as confused by the fact that they spent 100$ on this sad attempt at trolling. I suppose it's their money to waste. And I've seen people waste cash on much weirder. Still, I give 'em a 0/10 for originality.

Also, why does it seem like every single game that's made to offend is such a piece of shit? I saw one a while back that looked worse than some of the half-done custom Doom levels that I used to play.

Some people should never exist.

I just wonder how this got onto steam and how it's still up. I'm not angry just confused. Obviously these people don't care for what happened on 9/11 or care for America, fine. That's fine, but to do this? No. That's taking it too far.

Pre-order now and receive the burning pentagon DLC!

Guys, it now says "this is an april fools' joke"... and "but this game will be published anyway"
...sigh.

I love how everyone's getting so butthurt about it. When in reality like noone who wasn't directly affected by it gives really a flying fuck about it.

Just be honest to yourself. Would you really react the same way if it was some game depicting the massacre of some Afghan/Iran/Irak people`by the Americans? Be really honest, I bet the game would go unnoticed, maybe mentioned once or twice, but nothing more. But hey, it's 'MURRICA.

Just before the shitstorm starts: I don't approve of what happened, but seriously guys, the focus on this needs to stop, it's getting ridiculous.

Wow, I really don't know how some people live with themselves.
