Perhaps they could of chosen a more subtle way of going about the level, although at the end of the day it is only a video game!

Did make me a little annoyed though. Partly because it is needlessly added to create just this type of exposure and seems quite desperate as a result (I'm sure they'll hide behind pretenious reasons for its inclusion regardless), but also because you don't get a say in the matter. Can't explain in more detail without spoilers. Maybe our evi- ...nice overlords will let me moan in full in an article after release~ (In no way siding with the paper, I should point out. Although I am surprised that they didn't fit hatred of immigrants into the story. "A game created by immigrants teaches your children to be terrorists!" was probably their back-up headline.)
