Ummm - so why would I want to pay $9.95 for a mine sweeper game? Is it a patriotic duty?
Is this game an attempt to capitalise on world events? The title of this post tends to suggest so...

Very patriotic, very capitalistic and completely under-whelming.

Note to denizens of ClieSource - I am not making a statement of the war in Iraq. I am more making a statement of the timing of release and inferences of the game. This really annoyed me that I decided to flame it.

[Zork]

This is really unbelievable.
Nice to see just another mine sweeper relase, but usin that braindead terrorist and war context, while US troops murders thousands of the people of Iraq is simply barbaric.
Shame onto the developers.

[yorrick]

I have noticed on "ANOTHER" website that this game has already been patched/cracked. Heh...

I kind of think we should keep our opinions of this game and its intent....away from our personal opinions of this war. I would hope for you to claim that "US troops murder thousands of the people of Iraq" that you have SOME idea as to whats going on before you call it "barbaric"

Sorry to all...Im sure most of you know me as laid back....but when it comes to the war, I support my country and see WAY to many people type garble without no idea what the big picture is.

[exiii]

Didn't I get a FREE minesweeper game with my original Palm? I think I'll install that instead.

Do you have a link...the handango version will not download...I get a 404 type error.

Thanks,

[hansschmucker]

tasteless. No matter if I was for or against this war (most of you know my oppinion by now), this is just plain... I'm short of words... And then a minesweeper clone... Argh!!!!

[Tixx]

The authors have made a piss poor decision here. Using death, destruction, terrorism to make some cash.

[Zork]

bent, you arent supporting your country. You are supporting a bunch of murders which are at the US administration (w/o ever being elected) which are the only real enemy of the people of the US. And the big picture is simply to murder as many civilians as possible, cause thats whats war is about.
But this is some thread for the OffTopic forum.

[Alistar]

I agree the game is in poor taste.

I guess you were one of the ones that was surprised and shocked on Sept 11th. Some people in this country really need a clue. (and by the way, all the recounts point to Bush as the clear winner - and I didn't vote for him, if thats what you want to know). I know you think an 11 year old kid is a civillian, but when he comes to your house or bus stop with explosives you'll sing a different tune. If you only knew half of what goes on in the middle east...you are however correct on one of your points...this belongs in OT, but your statement was so rediculous that I felt compelled to say something.

Erik

[BenT]

Zork get a clue. I wont debate this anymore. You are entitled to your opinion. But at least base it on SOME form of fact. And dont EVER say I dont support my country. My work is to protect my community...and a lot of my free time is spent working in my community (without pay). What do YOU do?

[olo]

My suggestion to the developers:

DONATE the money you make on this brainless game to the people being hurt in this f****** war! Iraquis, Brits and Americans!

Sad enough that a country is going to war WITHOUT an UN resolution, but making money out of it is probably the lowest in human behaviour I have seen in a long time!

Peace now

At least it is a good looking minesweeper clone.

"war on Iraq game"

I can't believe this guy.

[Leb]

Oops, I accidentially bought Strip Dice.

[yorrick]

Whatever your opinion of the war in Iraq is your personal view. However, I find the most offensive thing in this piece of software is the promotion and marketing of it. To use war, suffering and death in a real life situation and use this as a vehicle for selling a product is unacceptable. In most countries, a complaint would be lodged with the advertising body to pull this ad. Quite frankly, I don't mind seeing the moderator deleting this thread (especially it was posted anonymously)

Don't ya feel sorry for the minesweeper game?! :)

[Leb]

I don't care about the example that he used, I hate liars and think it's crap for a person in his position to use such lame & bogus advertising.

[dgtiii]

The fact that this thread's subject on the forum page is "War on Iraq game" is truly tasteless and offensive. How can the author be so exploitive of a very grave situation. There is nothing funny or entertaining about armed conflict. As to some of the opinions expressed here (Zork), get a clue, people. I am not an advocate for this war; I don't think the administration ever really proved their case. However, as a veteran of the Gulf war, I am an advocate for our young men and women who are in harm's way. I find it extremely offensive for anyone to infer that they would willingly "murder" innocent civilians. Do you understand that our soldiers VOLUNTEERED to possibly lay down their lives for our country? Whatever your feelings about this conflict are, our troops deserve and demand your respect and support, not your derision. They are willing to DIE for our country, are you?

Moderators: Please pull this thread

[AlbertLu]

Bloody idiot.

Dripping with sarcasm - How about a planes-flying-into-two-towers game?

[tsuribito]

Coming out kinda fast.
I guess that was a usual 08/15 Minesweeper game and the Graphics were added later to sell some more (or at all?)

[dúnadan]

not sure if i'm for or against the war, but this game is in bad taste.

[eric2002]

i agree this game is in bad tast only because of the title of the game and the fact it is based on the current situation. There are however a bilzillion games based on War, Murder, Death, etc.... which are all very very popular. I am not defending this game in any way, yes it's in very poor taste. But let's be specific that the reason we are against this game is because it's in bad taste, not because of the subject matter. I mean how many copies of "Grand theft auto" have been sold, or "Civilization", etc..

As far as Zorks comment, I think that was in just as bad of taste as this game. Zork, we have all heard every argument on both sides of this issue, and we have all made up our minds. So what is your point?? I mean are you trying to gather more people to agree with you or more to argue with you? This debate can not be won by arguing w/ each other. There has got to be a better more constructive way to deal with this issue than taking jabs at the other side.

Let's all refrain from further comments on the war situation and why our side is right and not stoop to Zork's low level!

anyone here have strip dice???

[Oiloncanvas]

hey tix, i have to agree.

and i can see that nothing has changed herre at the good old clie source. people are still fighting about wo' asleap.
as far as the game...what a bunch of corprate morons, and haha the game is cracked allready and anyone who pays for it is a sucka.

anyway nice to see ya here still tix.

[Oiloncanvas]

war sux
and i say that because i bet you dont have a clue as to why this war was started. Is it terror, is it weapons of mass distruction, could it be oil, could it be that we just dont want the rrest of the world to realize that the usa might be broke for real this time, or will batman survive the mother of all bombs without his shark repellant...and if you check out the mythology of the H islands on the shark you'll get the insult.

(quickly putting on a flame proof suit and waiting...its going to get hot in here.)

and face it this is the most telavised war ever, and its promoted like a for tv only after school special for the truly special, americas retarded.

(takes out fire extinguisher, and holds it at the ready)

[eric2002]

hey Oiloncanvas:

stop, stop, stop!!!

I suggest you read the 3 posts before yours!

[euskalin]

oiloncanvas, zork:

you are really unpatriotic. I can't believe you don't support killing of innocents in the name of America. You are the kind of people who hide arms of mass destruction in your attics. Colin Powell has some pictures that show it. ok they have been re-touched with Photoshop but who cares.

I bet you are muslims.

You are not true americans.

In fact, I'm almost sure you are french.

Or something worst.

On the other hand, nice Iraq game. I just feel like Tommy Franks. God bless America !!! and **** the rest.

as I feel specially patriotic I'll say it again: God bless America !!!!! (five ! this time)

gotta run, I've already missed 5 minutes of CNN today. I need my dosis of war, bye !!

Hey Oil:)

[iebnn]

It does make me wonder though.... Why is it that people are okay with World War II games and Civil War games etc. (board games, video games, etc), but are not okay with games based on the war in Iraq? At what point is it "okay" to play/make such a game?

(I'm not giving any opinion on the taste of this game or any other opinions, just thinking about this)

[dgtiii]

I think (in my opinion), that it becomes okay to have a game based on a war only after that war is over, and has been placed in historical context and perspective. I'm not old enough to know, but I seriously doubt that there were WWII or Civil War games placed on the market during those conflicts, especially not within days of the outbreak of war, like this game has been. The historical perspective thing is important - notice there are very few Vietnam War games (I mean no offence to any veterans of that tragic conflict). It's too soon with this conflict to be capitalizing on it, especially in such a crass way. Again, only my opinions.

One more thing: although I disagreed with Zork, and others on this topic, I think we all have to remember; www means World Wide Web. We can't assume that everyone on this board is American, or that their views are unpatriotic.

[iebnn]

There are a bunch of vietnam games. Viet Cong just came out too. And there is that war on afghanistan expansion for Delta Force. Even C&C Generals seems to be mixing the current conflicts (and possible future conflicts) -- terrorists, china, america..

[tsuribito]

You could buy Tanks, Soldiers and Stuff as Toys in World War 2

Read the post again. As you do so, consider the following word: sarcasm.

Discover any good psychotropic meds while you were away?

[bbgk103086]

WTF is the point?
patriotic minesweeper is still minesweeper
retarded
absolutely bottom line retarded

[bbgk103086]

actually euskalin u are the unpatriotic one
u are the reason why people all across the world hate america because people like you think they have the right to go around telling people that they are the type of people that hide weapons of mass destruction, and that u are the one to judge all muslims, WHY DO YOU THINK THEY HATE US????? if u showed that post to 90 percent of the world, they would laugh in disgust, that is not patriotic that is insanely overzealous and stupid. you should ne HIGHLY ashamed of yourself, you put a stain on americas already tarnished reputation
GOD BLESS AMERICA
and help those of us to see the big picture

[bbgk103086]

and oil, you have crossed the line on war in this forum, your responses were unnecessary, and the emotion is unwarranted

[bbgk103086]

and for all of you out there? i do love american and i am dang proud to be an american

[bbgk103086]

woops sorry about that, i do see your point exii, my apologies to euskalin

[BenT]

LOL @ your 5 posts in a row. Sounds like you are talking to yourself :D ;)

[bbgk103086]

sorry, choppy thoughts

[BenT]

Hehe I know the feeling. I could get myself in a rage from this thread alone. Im usually one to speak out, but due to the fact that this forum is a gaming forum, not a political forum....I try and hold back

[kidfixer]

TROLL ALERT:

Something in the way euskalin posts makes me think he is not american, and only acts as a stereotype. It might be that he has an agenda to create discord - an agent provocateur.

My best guess is that he is in southern france or northern spain. He might be even euskal herria... basque... so ignore him.

Once again, people, do not feed the trolls. Do not feed into the BS.

[euskalin]

**** WARNING contains sarcasm !!! ****

touché!

first my boy let me say you are blind if you can't see your government has converted a one-man hunt in a massacre of civilians.

and yes man I'm not american: you can know that by my poor (let's say not-so-good) english.

and yes man I'm basque: you can know that by my nickname.

oh and yes man I'm unpatriotic: I believe in people, not in flags.

and yes man I'm a crucial part of the axis of evil. Go to say that to Powell. He'll tell Bush. But Bush won't tell you. The truth I mean. Now leave me alone, gotta go to wash the cat.

BTW: I have a Clie NX60, anyone knows how can I turn this into a mass destruction weapon?

**** end of sarcasm ****

[euskalin]

my dear friend of the big colored ribbon one more thing: don't call me rumsfeld again or I'll powell you. With my arms of bush destruction. You're warned.
Signed,
one of the bad ones

[Berto2112]

Hey now...no need to go making fun of Spaniards. I may not be Basque, but I'm Gallego, which isn't to far.....geographically.

[l0keman]

Who here is military? Who here has been to the desert? Who here has seen what really happens out there? Who here can close their eyes and vision 100% WITHOUT A DOUBT,what it would be like in that country and the surrounding ones if somebody didn't do something? THEN SHUT UP! And do a little research, the news, they show what they want you to see. They show what's good for their ratings. The gov. plays the same games. You think you know what is said in private on a war counsil, you think a news station does? Get a grip on reality, my friends. How are you some sort of expert? I'd be more comfortable seeking your professional advice on brain surgery. I've been there, way more than once, I see the crap that happens. I know a lot more than the average person, and I know, you, me, 90% of the planet is not qualified to make such a decision.

[l0keman]

When an average person not working for a military (a civilian) grabs a bomb and kills a lot of innocent people, they cross a line into a group other than civilian. They become a terrorist or murderer, something. Same thing goes when they grab a gun and shoot at soldiers, they are no longer civilians, they become something of a militia, or if they do it for the money Sadam offers, a certifiable mercenary. If they get killed, they are a dead mercenary, not civilian. You all seem to live in a fantasy were we should all hold hands and settle arguments with bake-offs or gardening competitions. Occasionaly innocent civilians do die, but it would not be so if Sadam let them leave and didn't stack them like sand bag bunkers around his weapons.

I'd go for the bake-off or gardening competition.:) Actually I'd go for a multi event dual between leaders and those deciding to go to war.

There you go all pro-Saddam again!:p

[l0keman]

I not a matter of pro anybody, its a matter of what works. I'm sure if you looked down the barrel of gun pointed at you and said "You know, how bout' we settle this like little fairies and loft pixie dust at eachother until the entire world joins hands and sing love train?", that'll work. Oh yeah you go talk to Saddam. If it was that easy, heck you could of written the letter over a decade ago, CC'd it to everyone on the globe and the world would a happy place. Your anti-war idea hasn't worked once in 4.5 Billion years, why would it magicaly start today? And keep in mind we tried it everyday for over a decade, with this ONE guy. He's going to change his mind tonite why.....?

[MonkeyK]

l0keman, by your reasoning we should be at war with everybody! There are so many disagreements in the world that are not settled despite years of trying.
The scary thing is that the current national security policy agrees with this line of reasoning.

[l0keman]

No, my line of reasoning is try your way first. If you can, solve it at the lowest level possible. I don't want war, belive me, I'm the one that actualy fight s them by the way, but you have to say okay, this isn't working at some point. If war wasn't working, same applies, move on to something else, whatever it takes to solve the problem. I agree with you and everybody that is anti war, but only to the point of diminishing returns.
