LBP delayed... for gods sake lol

[Jordan3606]

LBP has been delayed until 14th November (not a confirmed date), because apparently, there was a song which contained words from the Qu'ran in, and Muslims find it offensive when words from the Qu'ran are used in conjunction with music

So basically, every disc that has been sent to retailers has to be taken back and re-copied without this song... how ridiculous. Sure, people have certain beliefs, but I mean c'mon.. if I found it offensive that a song had the words 'hello' in, does that mean all games with songs that contain the word 'hello' must be recalled? No.

This doesnt affect me since I wouldnt have got the game until my bday (24th nov) anyway, but everyone else seems to be pretty pissed off over it.

Kudos to Sony though for respecting peoples beleifs, although it was probably just to protect their PR.

It's so annoying. I thought great! It's out the day we finish for half term so I have a whole week without school to play it. But noo they had to delay it.

Well, that's highly discriminative and you're hardly a religion, are you?

Surely they could just release patch that just removes the song? :S

Oh no, I'm sure you can wait and be respectful, maybe.

Would be better if you put for Allah's sake in the title.

Nope, I can't.
