This article is about a new video game called "Call of Juarez: The Cartel." This game has upset critics and officials by portraying Ciudad Juarez, one of the most deadly cities in Mexico. The mayor of Juarez says that the game is demeaning to the city and it's inhabitants. The first forty days of 2011 averaged at eight homicides a day. The game publisher, Ubisoft, says the game isn't meant to represent real situations in Juarez. I think the people of Juarez need to get over it. Maybe it's a little cruel to say that, but it is JUST a video game. It is meant to be something to entertain people, not demean them.
