7 Video Games That Were Affected by 9/11 | blameitonjorge

[@blameitonjorge]

So KZbin's new ad policies got a few of my videos demonetized. Nothing serious, a lot of my older, more scarier videos were hit. But I'll be fine, I'm not starting a Patreon or switching to Vid.me or Twitch. Fortunately some of my more popular videos like the Serious Issues or Lost Media ones are completely healthy, so there's nothing to worry about. However this video has limited/no ads, so I pretty much did it for free :3 but fuck it, I wanted to make it >:3

There's some serious irony when everyone shouted "9/11 NEVER FORGET" but edited out any mention of it in any media subsequently. Also, wouldn't this create some sort of Streisand effect?

Another game that was changed surprisingly recently was Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3. If you watch the gameplay reveal, the segment is from the Battle of New York and is in the final game. In the demo, as your character surfaces from under water, you can see the new 1 WTC, or “The Freedom Tower” in the background. However, in the final game, 1 WTC is replaced by a slightly redesigned 3 WTC, another building in the new World Trade Center complex. This change can also be seen in a quick shot in the game’s launch trailer. Supposedly, a key reason that this detail was changed was the developers did not want to offend anyone pr reopen old wounds by seeing the new tower under attack.

[@flAMe9610]

@@LocoStoner42069 It is actually not illegal to show the swastika in Germany if you have a reason for it, art being one of them. The censoring in video games was done by the developers not the German state. For the same reason those versions of the game with symbols were never illegal in Germany. It all comes down to a misunderstanding of the German law and not wanting to be the first to have swastikas in their game in Germany. That changed however a couple of years ago, when one German developer submitted their game with swastikas to the USK and unsurprisingly passed the rating. I believe Bethesda were the first after that releasing their international versions of Wolfenstein in Germany. Kinda crazy how much money companies like Bethesda blew on releasing separate German versions of their game, they just needed some balls and submit their games to the USK.

The plane in Twisted Metal Black is one of the reasons that game is my favorite in the franchise. Not only did it unlock Yellow Jacket, but it opened a whole new area with power ups. Shooting the plane is an important piece of strategy for that game, and so is bombing the Eiffel Tower in Twisted Metal 2. Such polish.

Fun fact: Sami Rami’s Spider-Man 1 had a teaser trailer where Spider-Man webs up a Helicopter full of bank robbers between the Twin Towers. This was removed for obvious reasons but you can still find it here in 2024. Someone found the teaser and reposted it on KZbin.

7:10 How can Daredevil play cards if he's blind?

[@chayden153]

The Indifferent Individual that's actually a good point

[@nozoto]

It's a card deck which has these little Braille code dots, maybe? Want an instance of what it looks like? Take a look at some medicine package, they all have them. But yeah, a blind person would be unable to play with a classic deck.

[@rustymug500]

He hears the cards move of course

[@VinchVolt]

Well he *can* read regular books with his fingers (since the loss of his sight allowed him to gain ultra-sensitive everything else), so maybe he does the same with the cards.

[@thearousedeunuch]

I agree, Jamie.

[@schaefer_hund]

I always find it kind of upsetting when people don't want to put references to the Trade Center in things because of associations with 9/11. I was born and raised around Manhattan and have very fond memories of going and hanging out in the plaza and in the mall underground there when I was a kid, and it always feels like those are trying to be erased too :( (Sorta related: Rockstar actually did a stellar job of making Liberty City into a mini digital New York - especially in IV where it even included local NJ environs, etc. that people wouldn't even usually bother to put. I actually was admittedly kind of surprised they allowed you to drive straight into JFK [can't remember it's fake name] and onto the tarmac and runaways, lol.)

[@lego5745]

I absolutely agree with this. I feel like while it’s important to remember the 1993 World Trade Center bombing and 9/11, it’s also important to remember what the complex itself looked like, as well as how it operated for the 28 years it was open to the public.

[@alexanicole6740]

I haven't even watched the video and I already liked 😂 Jorge never fails to make a great video!

[@JaNieWie]

"In 2008 a group within BlackBox were ilustrating "Need for Speed TerrorFive", where the Creator's goal reads: "How can large scale street racing take place in a post 9/11 US city?". Yup. At one point Need for Speed was conceptionalizing a street racing game where your crew are labeled as terrorists". This text is directly taken from a documentary video about NFS Carbon. I just wanted to share it.

I was expecting to hear about how Deus Ex removed the twin tours from the games skyline due to memory restraints, explaining in story that the towers fell in a attack that occured in the year 2000. the strange thing is that Deus Ex released years before 9/11.

[@CaptainPriceONDATRAINFR100]

Deux Ex was released in 2000

[@Serevarno]

Propeller Arena for Dreamcast was flat out cancelled b/c Sega felt it was bad having planes fight in a city landscape. :/

[@ajaxmaxbitch]

And not to mention the dreamcast was already dead so 9/11 was probably the final nail in the coffin for the game

[@freeshavacado3959]

The GTA box cover makes sense now. I always wondered why it looked one way when I would read about it and look it up but when it finally came out, totally different. The main character was not a terrorist, he was a thug trying to come up and doing jobs he was paid for.

[@AxeMan562]

Funny enough, they briefly mentioned the change in cover art for GTAIII, but that seemingly minor change would set the style of cover art for every subsequent GTA game to date and become synonymous with the entire franchise as a whole.

[@beachwind7274]

Fun fact about THPS3: In the Airport level, Neversoft originally included a goal which would involve terrorists. After 9/11 they replaced the terrorists with pickpockets, But the pickpocket model file is still called terrorist_a.

[@LiveForFuntasy]

I've never been able to find a clip of Thor's cameo in Spider-Man 2: Enter Electro. I find videos of pre 9/11 versions showing the twin towers, but none of the videos I find show Thor actually appearing in a cutscene. Does Thor actually appear and talk to Spidey, or is that just misinformation?

[@NGMonocrom]

You don't play as a terrorist in GTA: III. You play as a mafia thug trying to become a Made man.

[@Snoopyj25]

NGMonocrom you aren't trying to become a made man. Everyone hates you at the end of the game, including the mafia lol

[@freeshavacado3959]

The character WAS trying to become a made man, until the mafia was done using him and tried to cut him out.

[@AIMalek]

He justed wanted moneyb

[@shiruotakuno28]

CORRECTION: The Junkyard level in Twisted Metal Black was never cut in any release. In the original release, you had to shoot down the plane to access the secret area and unlock YellowJacket. In every subsequent release, the secret area was open upon entering the level, with the plane no longer circling the stage.

[@justincarawan-carawanco.pu1639]

anyone else ever notice that kids who were born past 9/11 and didn't grow up in the "post 9/11 era" the rest of the world did are WAY different than the rest of us. What that change is I can't place, but i feel it's related to the absence of that factor.

[@NewWaveEnthusiast]

For me,it’s so weird how everyone moved on so fast. If I was alive at that time and witnessed it,I could never move on and think about it everyday. My parents never told me about 9/11,the internet did. When I heard about it at first,it didn’t click to me that people died. I didn’t know what death meant at the time. But now,seeing the towers fall and all the recordings,I broke down. I still can’t understand why can’t we just live together in peace. I might sound naive about the world. Genuinely its a question that will never be answered. And the music in this video doesn’t help the feelings. For me,the 90s ended that day. Before that day,America hadn’t transitioned into the 2000s yet. I can’t understand why no one I know talks to me fully about this. If I do ask,they just say “Yep it was real,surprised you know about it because of your age”. No one my age knows about 9/11. It’s like the world started when they were born,anything that happened before they were born doesn’t concern them. I had a full breakdown seeing it fall. Such a beautiful landmark,gone in seconds. At first,I couldn’t think about Muslims the same,until I realized it’s not their fault. It was terrorists. I hate how I have so much knowledge for my age,because I overthink at night. Honestly,9/11 is the only event to make me burst into tears. When I get older,I want to visit where the WTC and put my respects and lay a flower to the poor souls who had to deal with it. It even saddens me even more because my mother visited America a lot when she was younger and to know I had a slight chance of not being born scares me. I have a general fear of heights and planes,well probably even does. If I could go back and somehow warn everyone,I can die in peace. But they’d probably jail me. And the one thing that broke me was a 2 year old child on one of the planes that just wanted to see Mickey Mouse. Never forget.
