Kotaku recently posted a disturbing photograph of a Space Invaders game where the aliens are attack the twin towers. All I can say is that this isn’t amusing, entertaining or funny in any way. Apparently the game was on display in hall #4 of the Games Convention in Leipzig, Germany. It was projected on a massive screen near the Space Invaders 30th anniversary display. I’m not sure who was responsible for this, but they should really be ashamed of themselves. Over 2,700 innocent people were killed on 9/11 in those towers and I’d assume people could find ways to remember them in a positive way, not poke fun at what happened. While I always respect people’s rights to artistic expression, I also respect the right to tell them that their work is out of line.

With PS3’s Summer Sale going on till July 31, I thought this was the perfect time to go ahead and buy me some PAIN for $4.99. With the additional add-on characters, I clearly understood PAIN’s sexual innuendo’s. I mean their Ninja character’s name in Hung-Lo, come one.

As I positioned the main character, Jarvis, into PAIN’s catapult I noticed the building in the distance located in the center of the screen. Watching “Revenge of the Nerds 2: Nerds in Paradise”, I quickly realized the resemblance. It was obvious to me, that the level “Paindemonium” was set in Miami, Fl. Check out the rest of the pics below:

Ok, ok So I knocked out some letters, sue me!

First Impression: For $4.99, it’s a great buy on the PSN Summer Sale.  Full Review coming soon…
