REVIEW: Resident Evil 5 Racism

Reviewer: Armored Werewolf

Gaming controversies, what a joke. I talked about "Do Video Games Cause Violence?," and talked about how it was a complete joke. But this is something else. Resident Evil 5 takes place in Africa, and everyone doesn't care. The trailer shows Chris Redfield and Sheva Alomar mowing down "zombies". I put zombies in quotes because they're not actually zombies. The Uroborus is a virus that takes over the mind of its victim. Basically a more advanced Las Plagas from Resident Evil 4. Anyways, most of the enemies are black or asian. And apparently Saddam Hussein makes multiple appearances. I wish I was joking, but no. Seriously, one of them actually resembles Saddam Hussein,

So people complain about how it shows a white guy shooting a black guy. Stupid real life crap that really needs to end and now using it against a video game. This racism argument doesn't work because the blacks aren't really the ones doing it. The Uroborus takes over the mind and makes them do it. And let's not forget. Resident Evil 4 had Spanish enemies and Resident Evil 6 has European and more Asain enemies. No one complained there, so what makes this any different?

I am currently doing a video series on Resident Evil 5 and I am using this controversy as a joke.
