Don't feel much more needs to be said; it's kind of pathetic how bad this is....

And Call of Duty is insensitive to people who don't want to be shot in the face.
It's supposed to be insensitive, which is why he said it...
Obviously ot supposed to be offensive to adopted kida rather the player instead. If that happens to be an adopted kid then that's just unfortunate.

Yay! More people to add to my "Need a punch in the face." list!

Hillarious.

"Passing the buck, hur hur hur"

They passed it on to the guys who fething made the joke in the game, its not passing the buck, its redirecting your slowed ass who did no research prior to this.

That man is pathetic for being such a weakling in the face of his child. If you have already told her she is adopted (obviously) then this shouldn't be a problem for you.

Am I the only one who giggled a bit when they show the man and then his adopted daughter and he's talking about whether she knows she is adopted or not. Maybe i'm just weird.

I don't actually remember that part, maybe it was only in the ps3 version but there are loads 'adoption' jokes in Portal 2. Glados pretends to reunite Chell with her real parents at one point and then goes on to taunt her about how they dumped her as a baby.

Oh my days. People take these things far too seriously...

'facepalm'

Resident Evil is insensitive towards zombies and they arent complaining!

Next you are going to tell us that cake is a lie upset fat people.

I love it when they state that the adoptive Caucasian parents have never hidden the fact that their Asian child is adopted.

LOL

"I don't know what to do, I STILL don't know what to do!"

Tell her

"People suck, you are AWESOME!"

"Adopted people are better because they were chosen by their parents instead of randomly created!"

Oh wait. They forgot to get offended by Glados' weight comments. And the homeless jokes.

What about the bit where GLaDOS says its fine to be adopted? These people are just stupid and lack the real intelligence to realise how other video games have had far more offensive comments , it also seems the child doesn't care at all.

America. I' am disappoint.

I like how "Takes thinking to play" becomes "Educational"

This just in:

"Adopted Daughter More Grown-up Than Her Dad, Experts Puzzled"

I'm glad I'm not the only one who noticed that. The game also makes fun of fat people. The first game also made fun of people with speech impediments.

Personally, I think some people could use to be offended more. I'm much more disturbed that this made the news.

I'd like to quickly point out to you that our news and media do not reflect the opinions or beliefs of the masses. Just in case you didn't realize this already. The nutjobs are the only thing that wind up on tv because they're the most entertaining.

"That's the worst thing I could have possibly heard."

Really?

Sir, you have no experience with the cruelty of children if that particular comment registered as significant.

Postal 2 is insensitive to everything.

People offended by that really need to lighten up.

And therefore its okay! (just like south park!)

So, he got offended by the part about Adoption, but nothing else that was said in there?

Portal 2. Rated E* for Everyone.**

*Unless you suck or you are an adoptive parent. Adopted kids, you can play this, because apparently you are smarter than your parents.

** ^

Wait, you mean GLaDOS, a psychotic computer bent on destroying all life (in the name of SCIENCE!), insulted someone?

CALL THE POLICE, THE NATIONAL GUARD, AND THE ARMY!

I demand inoffensive villains! I want my adversaries to be stand up, fine people, who never say anything that could potentially upset anyone! That makes for a good villain, and no mistake!

Urgh, I'm with GLaDOS on the 'wipe out humans' stakes if this is the best we can hope for.
