Yep, we're hearing from Peta again! This time, instead of protesting a Nintendo franchise, they're going after Ubisoft's Assassin's Creed franchise.

 

Whaling—that is, shooting whales with harpoons and leaving them to struggle for an hour or more before they die or are hacked apart while they are still alive—may seem like something out of the history books, but this bloody industry still goes on today in the face of international condemnation, and it’s disgraceful for any game to glorify it. PETA encourages video game companies to create games that celebrate animals—not games that promote hurting and killing them.

This is ridiculous...  Don't they have anything else better to do... It's a work of fiction... Did Peta go after the writer of Moby Dick? Granted, he wasn't killed -- but they tried...

 

My point is kinda on track... lol... but it's still unnecessary...

PETA always does things like this just to try and stay relevant, lol. The Mario 3D Land fiasco was funny, though.
