Wow, I just caught wind of this. I'm actually WAY on the other end of the argument than you guys, and find this to be in incredibly poor taste.
Blackwater should not be glorified in a game, they are a for-profit PMC, and have been sued for engaging in child prostitution, kidnapping, and money laundering. Basically they do awful stuff to make more money.
For instance, they are accused of selling weapons to Kurdish nationalists in Iraq, basically empowering the very sect they were being paid to repress.
And now 505 is sending these guys to Africa in a Kinect game? WTF?!
