Apple Removes Civil War Games from App Store
- Thread starter RedStar
- Start date
I'm pretty confident in saying the market didn't demand this. Please find me anyone who asked for these to be removed.
We've reached a point in society that anything that is uncomfortable or unseemly, even when displayed in a proper historical context and used by many as a teaching tool, shall not be allowed for fear of offending a relative minority. I would wager if properly polled not 20% would take issue with a flag that is portrayed within a video game in the proper context of a military units.
But proper arguments and debate of understanding don't fit within a 140 characters or less. Both sides are guilty of this.

Probably wrong thread to post this in...but at some point in the future, do they see us as an embarrassment and try to erase us from the data file?
Um, Apple, is a provider for the market. No one asked for this. the market DIDN'T demand this. If the market demanded it, please send a link. I'd love to see a collection of consumers asking for the removal of the games.
apple is a key player in the market. they make their decisions based on what they think their customers expect.
It's your belief that the actual market for these video games "expect" those games not to be historically accurate?
You're right that they are player in the market making this decision, but that does not mean this was a market-driven decision.
I seriously expect this to happen.Next will be the mass picketing of Civil War reenacters...
Third time I've asked. Please send me a link of their customers expecting or asking for this.
it is market based to the extent that they think it will be to their financial advantage to do this based on how they expect the market to react. they may be wrong, but i doubt it.
they are making a decision based on what they think their customers will expect of them. whether they are right or wrong on this will be found out in the future.
