I work at a retail store and the xbox rep came in today and said the game should be pulled effective Wednesday. She didn't tell me why but seemed to suggest that there were some scenes that were considered offensive to a particular race or religious group. Has anyone else heard about it and would it be wise to pick up a copy (despite the less-than-favorable reviews)?

Apparently there are stanic chants in the game. The game sucked anyway.

Is thats whats wrong with it? I played thru it on sunday, and I couldn't find what was suppose to be so offensive. (besides the crappy gameplay)
it was pulled offically on 2/7 its all over a ebay has OOP, rare and whatnot

Bad game and should have been pulled for that reason. The religious stuff is nonsense. Sad to see a game pulled for something so stupid as being offensive to people that would probably never buy it in the first place.

It's probably just a made up excuse to get the game out of sight as soon as possible.

Why do people keep thinking this is made up? Recalls are not cheap. Retailers will get reimbursed for each copy they destroy.

I beleive there something in the game the says stuff from the Kohran and it suppose to be like disrespectful or soemthing to talk about the Kohran in a non-religous form.

I don't think it was "Satnic" (Satanic?) chants. It was Hindu chants and temples, I believe.

I picked it up for like 30 bucks the day this recall news leaked out... hopefully I can at least sell it for that much. Maybe more. :greed:
