[Poll] Racism in games!
May 22, 2004 - 11:49 AM

You may think that games may not have racism in them. What you don't realize, is that some of them do! For example. Grand Theft Auto 3. One of my favorite games. Although its my fav, it has racism. What you don't realize, is that all of the cabbies, are people from the east indies. Such as India. What I want to know, is do you think this is fair to Indian people?

Hey Justin,
I don't get what your question means. First you say that most of the team members of the team are of India and then you ask is this fair for the Indians. Please be more specific.

You have to be more specific for your poll question. First you say that all of the cabbies are east indies such as India and you ask whether if it is fair for them. What do you mean by fair for the Indians? They are the cab drivers.

I have an idea. You can tell us about the game you are talking about and then ask us the question. Tell us whether the work the Indians are given is good or bad. Tell us is it hard or easy, do they get good money or not. Tell us why you are asking that is it good or not.

Ok, what it means, is... One of my favortie games, is Grand Theft Auto 3. In the game, there are taxi cabs. All of the taxi cab drivers are people from India. Do you think it is fair for Indian people to be portrayed as cab drivers? The poll is asking if it is fair for the Indian people to be portrayed as cab drivers?
