The vice president THQ comment on the Taliban in Medal of Honor

Danny Bilson, THQ criticized the selection of Electronic Arts According to the vice president of THQ, Electronic Arts was wrong to include the Taliban in Medal of Honor. Although EA has replaced the Taliban in multiplayer with a generic faction called "Opposing Force" Bilson said that including real drama in a video game is mere speculation.

The manager then went on defending THQ Homefront who suffered similar accusations it included in its title as North Korea despite the recent friction between the two Koreas. Billson has specified that if the United States was at war with North Korea, and there were no victims, the issue would be very different.
