Ethnic Cleansing (video game)

Ethnic Cleansing is a 2002 video game developed by Resistance Records, an underground record label specializing in neo-Nazi and white supremacist "music", which is owned by the white supremacist organisation National Alliance. Based on that information and the game's title, one could probably make a guess as to the game's content and quality and not be far off.But just in case, here's the Wired article on the game.
==Gameplay==
Exactly like you expected, the game is a first-person shooter in which the extremely, extremely threadbare plot concerns a Jewish takeover of the United States. (Apparently, Resistance Records didn't get the memo about the Zionist Occupation Government.) The player takes the role of either a skinhead or a klansman, who, operating out of a crack house, runs through a ghetto killing blacks and Mexicans before descending into a subway to kill Jews. They eventually reach the "Jewish Control Center", where they must kill former Prime Minister of Israel, in order to win the game. 
In the game, black people are portrayed as gangbangers who make ape noises on death (the game claims these noises were "recorded using real life negroes"), Mexicans are portrayed as banditos who say either "Ay Caramba!" or "I'm gonna take a siesta now" when killed to come back again seconds later, and Jews are portrayed as Haredim who say "Oy vey!" when killed.
Explicit racist messages can be found anywhere: in the level, the brick buildings are covered with racist posters such a caricature of a Jew or a movie ad showing a white girl and a gorilla. The black gangbangers wear, on their sneakers and shirts, the word "NIGZ", the name of their gang.
The gameplay of the first level is very simple, the player will have to roam the ghetto and find the boss of the gangs causing havoc in the streets, a laughing black guy slightly bigger than the other Nigz named "Big Nig", who guards some explosives. Once Big Nig is eliminated, the player will detonate the explosives and open the entrance of the subway.Ethnic Cleansing (2002) WARNING: As you can guess, the game seen in the video itself is highly offensive. The uploader did however go on record to state that they do not in any way endorse or condone the content shown in the game and uploaded gameplay footage only for historical and archival purposes a la MobyGames, going so far as to censoring out some of the more abhorrent content. Just keep yourself away from the comments section as it's infested with immature chuds, though.
In the second level, the player will have to explore the subway, killing mainly Jews, even if, without any reason, there are some Nigz in the subway's toilets. The final boss of the second level is Ariel Sharon.
By default, the game plays a cover version of the racist band Skrewdriver's song "When the Boat Comes In". Sample lyrics from said song: "Take no shit from anyone 'cause the white race rules! We'll fight the communists, 'cause communists are fools! Try to take our nations, and give 'em to the blacks! Won't take it anymore, we're gonna take our nations back! So we say: nigger, nigger, get on the boat! Nigger, nigger, row! row! row!"Skrewdriver - When The Boat Comes In: Again, offensive. And dumb. Not to mention that it's hosted on a webshite because it's too hot for YouTube anyway.
===Quality===
Ghastly sentiments aside, the game is also pretty dismal from a technical perspective.
Developed using the Genesis3D engine, this broken game features hideous graphics with supremely terrible models and textures, dismal collision detection, ridiculously short draw distance (about 10 feet, making it look like you're walking in a perpetual fog and making it impossible to spot enemies before they shoot you to death), and more typical features associated with terrible games. The game's only weapon is a machine gun that has no recoil or even a proper firing animation. There are only two levels, and it crashes regularly,It can happen from dying, watching the "cutscenes", idling too long in the main menu, or even just opening it. Truly proof that the master race is inherently superior at everything. especially more so on modern Windows versions., A review of the gameplay itself.
Because of the lack of the commitment by the developers, the objects of the game, like cars or barrels, will shed blood if hit by bullets, and the enemies will be unable to see you through fences.
Also, for some inexplicable reason, instead of using the W, A, S, and D keyboard configuration that every other computer game in existence uses for movement, Ethnic Cleansing uses S, Z, X, and C(???). And despite the fact that there's a keyboard configuration menu, it doesn't work.
==Publicity==
The Anti-Defamation League publicized the existence of the gameADL Report: Growing Proliferation of Racist Video Games Target Youth on The Internet and (being apparently somewhat unfamiliar with the basics of licensing) unsuccessfully lobbied the developers of Genesis3D to change their licensing conditions to prohibit the use of the engine to develop racist games. They have also lobbied the Interactive Digital Software Association to encourage its members to adopt such policies.
 
Stuff Magazine named Ethnic Cleansing the 40th most controversial video game of all time in January 2003. In 2010, UGO ranked it as the #1 most racist video game in history.
The game was featured in an episode of the History Channel documentary series Gangland that focused on skinhead gangs.
==Getting the game==
As you can probably guess, this isn't a game you can just pick up at your corner video game store. It can only be ordered directly from Resistance Records' website.We will not link you to a place where you can purchase it. You'll thank us later. For $14.88. These days, of course, you might also be dumb, bored, or curious enough to download it illegally for free on torrent indexes and the Internet Archive. (Though you'd still likely be wasting storage space.)
==Sequels==
The game has spawned three even more spectacularly unsuccessful and stupid sequels, White Law,http://www.popmatters.com/feature/040226-whitesupremacists/ ZOG's Nightmare, and ZOG's Nightmare 2.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mR1Jme2AuNwhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IGDmLvZUO-I The gameplay of the latter is slightly better and the racist message is slightly toned down — as in, instead of killing non-white civilians, you kill non-white soldiers. Resistance Records wanted to create an entire series of games based on The Turner Diaries, but this seems to have fallen through.
==In a nutshell==
It's racist and very badly made. 0/10 not worth $0.01 let alone $14.88.
