In a new low for the gaming community, a petition has been crafted for getting US President Barack Obama to remove Ninja Theory’s DmC: Devil May Cry from store shelves.
The “petition” reads:
Dear Mr. Obama: As a consumer to the Video Game Industry there is one Video Game that has caused a lot of controversy over the past few month’s.
The name of the game is DmC: Devil May Cry made by Ninja Theory and Capcom. A majority of gamer’s are aggravated that this game has changed so much from it’s past predecessors and the game actually insults the consumers in-game.
We, as consumers did not want nor need this reboot and we believe it violates our rights to have a choice between the original’s or the reboot. This game is violating our rights as a consumer and we believe it should be pulled off shelves from game stores due to it’s insulting nature and the fact that it violates our rights.
Please Mr. Obama, look into your heart and make the decision that will please us Gamers.
Of course, considering the number of trolls on the internet, it could be an elaborate prank. This is evidenced by the petition having an overwhelming 37 signatures (of which a 100,000 are needed for some kind of action).
DmC: Devil May Cry is now available for Xbox 360 and PS3, with a PC release on January 25th.
