So here is the story...there is a part in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 where the player takes part in shooting innocent civilians. Obviously this has caused a bit of controversy around the internet, prompting the developers to issue a statement:
The developers also said that part of the game can be skipped “without losing any of the story.” If that is so, why even include it in the game?
The scene establishes the depth of evil and the cold bloodedness of a rogue Russian villain and his unit. By establishing that evil, it adds to the urgency of the player's mission to stop them. Players have the option of skipping over the scene. At the beginning of the game, there are two 'checkpoints' where the player is advised that some people may find an upcoming segment disturbing. These checkpoints can't be disabled.
