RE: The Slaying of Sandy Hook Elementary
Say what you want about the content, the game is pretty impressively crafted for what it is. Did any of you feel empowered mowing down defenseless children and teachers, as you would in any given FPS? I didn't. The almost complete lack of music, the repetitive splish-splashy sounds of his footsteps and the grimy visual style are all working against that idea. So yeah, the actual events are obviously horrible and you could easily make a case that this is sensationalist but at least it wasn't exploitative. Felt terrible to play and that was precisely the point I think.
