California-based development studio Zono has recently released the first information on Riot Police for the PC. Scheduled for release later this year, through Activision Value, the action-packed strategy game will challenge players to quell 16 riots involving peace rallies, sporting events, and protests.

Players will have a number of different units at their disposal, including riot police, heavy riot police, mounted riot police, suppressors, enforcers, and tank-mounted water cannons. Weapons available to the player will include batons, rubber bullets, beanbag shotguns, and police walls.

Enemies in Riot Police will include looters, hooligans, protestors, deadly militants, and angry leaders. We'll bring you more information on Riot Police as soon as it becomes available.

1. There's another game
where you get to be a rioter. "State of Alert," I think it is called.

Is that a picture of Jello Biafra?

3. And don't forget "postal"...
another shooting game that's been out forever. One of the "highlights" is turning a flamethrower on a marching band. No kidding.

5. Tough questions for anyone libertarian-leaning to grapple with...
Edited on Tue Dec-30-03 06:51 PM by Bush loves Jiang
Is it justified for private enterprise to use the rules of the free market to create an unfree market? (Regional encoding on DVD movies, territorial lock-out on videogames)

Should free expression be censored if the sentiments being expressed serve only to glorify its suppression?

This game is quite troubling...

Forgiven:

Some of the rioters you're allowed to stop are religious extremists protesting in favour of imposing their sexual morality on others.
