So I’ve been playing the game “Resident Evil 5” for the past week or so. The game is pretty cool. The action is fun, but of course, so far, the game is kind of a bit too simple to play. I’m playing this is on the “difficulty/hard” level of course. On every action/adventure game, I always play on the “difficult/hard” levels, because I feel that when you play the game on easy or medium modes, it gets me thinking that you’re not much of a pro gamer that some people make them out to be. If you want to be an expert game player, play the games on “difficulty” on everything you play.
This game got a lot of controversy in the media when it first came out ’cause of the racist material in it. The game is set in Africa where the two main characters, Chris and Sheva fight all these zombies that are mostly blacks. In the game, the black zombies will kill and execute human white people. I can understand why people think the game is racist, but there is racist material in almost all video games and movies these days.
It’s not okay to be a racist in real life, but in fiction storytelling whether it will be in video games, books or movies, it makes it okay. It doesn’t make you a racist for telling a story about it in fiction entertainment.
“Resident Evil 5” is a fun game though. I’m hoping to beat this game before the “Ghostbusters” game come out next week. I haven’t gone to the mall yet ’cause I’m waiting for “Ghostbusters” to come out, then I will go and pick it up. Maybe catch a movie in theater too if anything good is playing.
