Call of Duty HQ has posted up an article on the Nation Institute Media & Family which labels Call of Duty 4 as Parent Alert. Check out what they have to say:
Let me first start by saying they in no way rank order the listings. A lot of other sites are publishing the list as if Call of Duty 4 is the "second worst" game to buy, with games like Manhunt 2 considered "lower" on the offensive chart. But that is not true.
The fact is, the document was just written in Alphabetical Order! You can download the 2007 Video Game Report Card and see for yourself.
But it is true, NIMF is considering CoD4 one of the games to avoid for children. I guess they missed the fact that it got an "M" rating, recommending only adults 17 or older play the game. The full list included:
* Assassin's Creed
* Call of Duty 4
* Conan
* The Darkness
* Jericho
* Kane & Lynch: Dead Men
* Manhunt 2
* Resident Evil: Umbrella Chronicles
* Stranglehold
* Time Shift
Well I just thought I'd comment on the bit of news, and hopefully this doesn't affect Infinity Ward's rep any. I don't see why it should. I don't think an 8-year old should be playing these games either. It doesn't mean the game is inappropriate or out of line any more than movies like Air Force One or American Gangster are.
