People like to excuse morbid stupidity with a pretense of social commentary (or whichever excuse they are using at the time), when in reality, they are simply looking for some attention, either monetary or for their sense of self.
Gaming is an escape, like movies, and just as you hate being lectured to in a movie, so you hate the "lessons" people would attempt to impart during a video game.
Maybe next, if you smack your bitch up in GTA, the cops will come and imprison you for 7-10 "game years". How's that for a lesson?
Next up, the Holocaust Video Game? After all, we're just commenting on how horrible it was, right?
(oh, and tell the game makers to stop stealing Doom and SouthPark graphics for their sorry excuse for a game).

((yes, I can do better))
whats the difference between this and GTA? kids and adults?
I'll probably play that game sooner or later. Interested in seeing if it's presented in a way that isn't a stellar example of the asshattery we have come to expect from the internet.
On the topic of offense due to what it's based on. I guess I find it shocking, kinda ballsy to make something about a tragedy still relatively fresh in memory. But I end up finding WW2 games more offensive. More innocent lives lost, more lives lost in general. And people are milking it for money constantly still.
As the trailer highlights, it's a matter of a person's perspective.
