More than anything it comes off like they're trying to cover their own ass. Let's face it, they're basically making digimon as compared to pokemon. It's the same game as CoD (more or less) and they very would could be hit with the same controversy. Imagine the backlash if "gunning down helpless civilians" turned into "gunning down women and children." of course the popular media would spin it and blow it out of proportion like they always do, but the bottom line is this. The fact that I can't shoot an innocent in my MILITARY shooter where I'm supposed to be playing the forces of good, doesn't detract from the experience in the slightest.
