The song in question was CREATED BY A MUSLIM MUSICIAN.

It seems any reference in any shape or form, through any medium to anything in the muslim religion is offensive.

Japan/Northamerica have totally different cultures to the middle east. You can't blame them for not knowing every single tiny detail about a culture/religion that is hardly their main consumer demographic. Give them a break metalgamer. They are removing it, they apologized. Quit your ****ing whining and get over it.

I think it was more concern about finding out the meaning of the lyrics in their E rated game than worrying about offending muslims.

Many Muslims consider the mixing of music and scripture to be deeply offensive.
Hmmm, maybe not.

Muhammad

*Is swarmed and killed by thousands of Muslims*

j/k
This reminds me of an episode of South Park(Cartoon Wars) where Family Guy was being criticized for showing Muhammad for about 5 seconds.

LBP had lines in from the Quaran and as far as I know replication of lines from that religious text is forbidden. Good on the developers for bowing down to a religious group. All this taking offense crap is out of hand.

I take offense at them trying to censor my games, and take away people's freedom of speech. To avoid saying anything offensive, I'll leave it at that.

yes, its great that 99% of ps3 owners suffer for some dumb religious fanatics.
and its great that freedom of speech is being hindered again.

i don't mind if these religious losers want to be religious in their own homes, but when they start affecting other people, thats when i get pissed.
they should keep religion to themselves; if they don't like game, then don't buy it.

while they're at it, why not ban all porno since its against Christian beliefs?
oh wait... i guess only Muslims count right?
**** that.
