Modern Warfare 3: starting with the controversy

In Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 would present a scenario too similar to the terrorist attacks on 7 July 2005 struck the London Underground, as reported in an article in the Daily Mail. The piece refers to the last movie shown 3 Modern Warfare by Activision, according to the newspaper, some people have been involved in series of bomb attacks in London were asked to prohibit the sale of game developed by Infinity Ward on British soil.

Vivienne Pattison of Mediawatch UK describes as "worrying" level of realism of war games and talking about a choice of bad taste in light of the July 7 bombings. The series Modern Warfare is not new to this kind of controversy a few years ago, Modern Warfare 2 unleashed a hornet's nest because of the level in which the Russian No controlled by the player character, an undercover agent, had to take part in an attack and had the opportunity to fire on unarmed civilians.

In that case, the level could be avoided entirely by players.
