Anyone remember the short-lived FPS game JFK:Reloaded? It caused quite a stir when it was released a little over two years ago. Since then, the game's development company discontinued the game and JFK:Reloaded is now considered abandonware. No doubt one of the most controversial games ever made, JFK Reloaded is a shareware game made by a Scottish company called Traffic Management that lets you recreate the assassination of President John F. Released on the 41st anniversary of the assassination in 2004, the game not surprisingly provoked a huge public backlash ranging from Ted Kennedy (who called it 'despicable') to.

how does this game have a mature rating? I don't think it was submitted to the ESRB or the Canadian or European counterparts. —Preceding unsigned comment added by CaptainAmerica (talk • contribs)

Traffic Games Status; Comment on Game[edit]

The last I heard, they were planning on coming out with a driving simulator next. However, I don't think they released anything since this game came out. If you go to the JFK reloaded website, it just has a single frontpage which comments on 'history' being made on November 2004 (when they released the game) and also about the 'legacy' of JFK.

I have to say -- this game sickens my heart. It really does. I realize the importance of free speech, free press, free thought, free assembly, etc. I suppose that extends to computer games as well. But ... I'm literally sad inside just writing this. I think a lot of the commentary that came out on this game wasn't from people who were even alive when the assassination happened.

The loss of the President of the United States.The loss of John F. Kennedy.The loss of the 'Kennedy' years.

Each of these was and is a tragedy. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 141.161.161.22 (talk • contribs)

You should play it. As much as it may sicken you, you should try to realise that this is emphatically not designed to be fun. JFK Reloaded is far from a trivialisation of the events of November 22nd 1963, and to describe it as a 'game' is stretching an already abused word too far. Rather, it is a complex ballistics simulator, designed to teach the 'player' one thing: The official explanation of Kennedy's assassination is, if not physically impossible, so hard to reproduce as to be practically impossible. I admit, I'm only 25 and I'm not a US citizen, but I am interested in history and human rights, and no-one can deny Kennedy's massive influence as a force for good in the world, and the magnitude of his assassination in global terms. JFK reloaded is designed to allow the curious to investigate this seminal historical event more fully. YourMessageHere 18:51, 10 June 2006 (UTC)
- On the contrary, I find it quite fun (as did most of the other people at the forum where I got it). It's a very well designed given how limited it is, and there's a fair degree of humour to be found in the erratic AI behaviour. I actually wouldn't mind seeing a sort of 'snipers of the world' expansion with multiple scenarios. Bear in mind I'm not an American and don't care much about JFK.

It may be 'fun', but it's NOT 'fun' because you're shooting JFK. That was the YMH's poin
