Army & Air Force Ban Medal of Honor
Posted by Steve Cook on 09.02.2010

They don't like the Taliban...

The Army & Air Force Exchange Services have confirmed that none of their stores will be selling the reboot of Medal of Honor. This is due to the fact that players can assume the role of a Taliban freedom fighter. Gamestop, which has 49 locations included in the ban, had the following to say:

"GameStop fully supports AAFES in this endeavor and is sensitive to the fact that in multiplayer mode one side will assume the role of Taliban fighter,"

EA had no comment. The reboot will be out October 12.

I am a military member stationed overseas. Looks like I will be saying "Fuck You BX" and buying mine from Amazon. Just a ridiculous knee jerk political reaction. Morons.

So wait.....Modern Warfare 2 is ok then!?!?!?!

Also I have about 3 friends in the military, that also served in Iraq and Afghanistan, and they LOVE these types of games.

Heyzeus Khrist! 2 hours of playing with taliban forces doesnt mean your gonna turn into one nor will you have this stange feeling to wipe out western culture.
