So it’s OK to kill, cut up, and smash the shit out of characters in the game but a plastic statue of a cut up female is out.
Well fuck you cunts.

I don’t know how fans of the game can possibly call this offensive or gruesome. I’m a woman, and a fan of the game (just put in about 4 hours last night), and if I’m offended by anything, it’s a company wanting to charge me a boatload of money for some super special limited edition with a bunch of crap I don’t need. I just want the damned game.

I have read the comments of innumerable people on several gaming sites, and I’m rather surprised by all the backlash. Intent is a large part of anything, and when this edition was announced, Deep Silver stated the statue is a “grotesque take on an iconic Roman marble torso sculpture.” Now whether you think it’s in good taste or bad, I’m not sure how you can really take offense by it. You spend 99% of your time in-game hacking the hell out of zombies. There are usually hunks of male and female zombies on the ground when you’re finished, that look just like the statue. For heaven’s sake people, that’s all it is…just an imagine from your game. There is no political, or sexist meaning behind it. I TOTALLY get people not liking it. I just don’t get their reasoning behind it.
