EA to stop selling real life weapons for charity


EA have quit the Project Honor charity, which was raising money for soldiers’ families through the sale of real weapons featured in Medal Of Honor: Warfighter. The press’ negative response to EA’s sale of real tomahawks and other weapons in order to ”benefit the families of fallen Special Operations Warriors” has caused them to abandon the project.

Greg Goodrich, executive producer at EA, spoke to Eurogamer at Gamescom, saying that due to the the negative publicity “the Voodoo Tomahawk has since been removed from our website.”

Honestly, I am glad that they quit this. Yes they did this for charity, but seriously, help soldiers forget war by selling weapons? IRL weapons are just stupid in my opinion. Keep them ingame EA!
