September 12th Wednesday, March 15, 2006

With all of the anti-gaming legislation being bandied about by censorship advocates like Senator Clinton, it's nice that some people can still demonstrate that games, like any other art form, can be used to entertain, insult, inspire, or even educate. A simple Flash game called September 12th illustrates how difficult it is to combat terrorism. Take a look and roll it over in your head a few times. What does this simulation teach us? You may or may not agree with the premise or the implementation, but you can hardly escape the feeling of futility.
