If they ban CoD which I hardly doubt it, they would go to another shooting game like BF3 or Vegas 2.
How can they train their fuck buddies on a game when it's not real? That's like me driving in a game Gran Turismo 5 and I can be shit hot in it. In real life, you're in a car and thinking you can do the same like on the game? These terrorists are completely fucking screwed up lol.
Unbelieveble!

"according to a report in The Sun."
Don't believe everything you read.

I take it the Sun isn't a highly praised newspaper?
Solution: ban Arabic characters/words from the game :-P I doubt they'll learn English to communicate.

They value invading piracy above legitimate journalism, as a comment on the article stated, the Sun are probably indignant that there is a communication platform they can't eavesdrop on.

As I recall, Microsoft Flight Simulator was also implicated as a training tool for terrorists. :lol:

I believe it was which is why between September 2001 and the release of Flight Simulator 2004 it was rather difficult to find any entry in the Flight Simulator franchise at retail. In fact, Flight Simulator 2002 was pretty much non-existent though it was released after the removal of the World Trade Center towers and Flight Simulator 2000 was pulled from store shelves shortly after 9/11.
However, the difference is Microsoft Flight Simulator is in fact a simulation game that can be used as a tool to train pilots. It is, or rather was commercially licensed as Microsoft ESP for such purposes.
On the other hand, Call of Duty is just a silly little shooter game people play for fun. In real life you don't get a care package after three kills, a UAV after two kills, or get to use a tactical nuclear warhead after twenty-five kills. And most certainly soldiers don't fight like how they do in Call of Duty. It just teaches you to pull a trigger on a controller.
