Out of morbid curiosity, I downloaded JFK Reloaded. I kind of respect what they were trying to do, it is an interesting idea. And the way they explain the bullet shots at the end of each turn is really interesting. But honestly, it is really sick. It is not just some silly first person shooter, you are portraying a known killer, and killing a 3d figure bearing the name and likeness of a real man. At least the goal of the game is not merely to kill the pres., but to get as close as possible to the marks Oswald actually hit. Still, pretty sick. Now I am waiting for the game were I get to portray the D.C. Sniper and try to commit his crimes as close as possible to how they really happened. Also since his was numerous kills rather than just one event, this game could be multiple levels to the game. The cool one will be the game were you have to aim a commercial airliner at the World Trade Center. I am really looking forward to that one. And how cool would it be to relive Columbine? Or the Oklahoma City bombing. Come on, it is just too much! Even worse than them selling this thing was the competition. That was really just wrong and really twisted.

I understand your view, but the whole point of reenacting it is not just to reenact it, but to determine if it was possible. We all know what happened at the OK bombings, Columbine, etc (well, WTC is touchy, but there's not a lot of evidence to support conspiracy theories). I applaud the makers for not pulling any punches. Sure there are people who play it for the gore, but the way it was designed, it is meant to be taken seriously.
