Very, very humerous indeed. Offtopic: Both Rugby and American "Football" (The british-ness inside of me scoffs at calling such a awful game by our national sport, when it doesn't involve that many feet) both fail in the wake of Bloodbowl.

The trailer was too much for me. The game looked innocent enough, but cutting to shots of actual whaling is just poor taste. I agree with Idle Threats. The trailer was too much for me.

Oddly, I have no qualms about violent games like L4D, but I have this little voice inside that complains, "Who would want to hurt a whale?" I won't play the game, but it did make me painfully aware of the issue. I found the video for the game disturbing.
