Medal of Honor dropping Taliban from Multiplayer
The talk of the town piece that I am going to do is with regards to EA deciding to drop the multiplayer team name of Taliban and replace it with "Opposing Force". I have a backround in public relations so I think I can bring something interesting to this paper. The facts regarding this issue are still pouring in but it seems as though EA has found itself in a bit of a PR jam. EA believed that by changing the name from Taliban to Opposing Force that many upset people would no longer complain and that the US military would stock the game for purchase for off-duty soliders overseas. However, some complaints may have been silenced but the US military is still not going to stock the game and now the gaming community, Medal of Honors primary public, are upset with the lack of courage EA has displayed with this step.
