Microsoft Game Taken Off Shelves | |

British retailers are sweeping the Microsoft Flight Simulator computer game off their shelves after worries emerged that the US terrorists could have honed their flying skills using the game. Virgin Megastores and Woolworths have already cleared their shelves of the game and HMV looks set to follow suit. And another computer game, in which players compete to defend the World Trade Centre from kamikaze pilots, has been withdrawn from sale. Microsoft refuses to withdraw the Flight Simulator from sale and has said assertions that the game may have been used by the terrorists are "highly inappropriate, speculative and counter to what the investigators are saying". But nonetheless Virgin Megastores has decided to remove the game from its shops. "Microsoft Flight Simulator has been sold at software retailers all over the world for years. Experts tell us it would have no relation to events in the US," a statement from the company said. | ||
