I play lots of games, and I've played the demo for this one. I am NOT amused. Cheat codes usually don't have political garbage like that in them.
As a matter of fact Gas Powered Games DOES need to fire someone over that. It's the kind of thing that wrecks sales, and makes the marketing and legal departments go bonkers. There's no up side to sales, and only potential loss.
I can't even imagine how a project head for a big budget, "A" title game like this ever let this slip by. If my goal was to make maximum money selling a computer game, you won't see me putting in cheat codes that push my political preference. Example: goresux, secondamendment, freedominiraq
Well, one more reason I won't be playing more Dungeon Siege. (Nice job Microsoft, how about you keep a closer eye on your game developers from now on eh?)
