MGS2 wouldn't be neutered
they changed gta 3 a lot thanks to 9/11
apart from that not much
SEGA would still be in the hardware business.
The whole world would be better if big money wasn't given a carte blanche excuse to shit on everything.
I would have had sex :(
We wouldn’t get Call of Duty 4, or at least not the one we got. Every game from 2001-now wouldn’t have a brown person as the villain. There wouldn’t be as many desert/Middle Eastern themes in military shooters.
Oh yeah i forgot, OP's dad died in 911 didnt he? :(
Propeller Arena would have come out.
Hitman would have an airport, maybe even a plane level.
yeah not like the Gulf War happened or anything
But the Gulf War was practically ancient history by the time the ‘00s were in full swing. Few games, if any, would be about that war.
Any games where I can shoot Jews? I'm tired of shooting mudslimes and nazis all the time.
Even killing mutts is starting to bore me.
We would be able to insult niggers and gays online and they would laugh it off.
Trannies wouldn't exist.
No Generals.
GTA wouldn't have the Iconic box art design.
Metal Wolf Chaos would've got an English release
Conflict: Desert Storm
Tom Clancy games wouldn't have gotten as popular.
the first one was insanely popular though
>brown guy
Wasnt the main bad guy of cod of doody modern whorefare a slav, though? And the second a gringo?
Wasn't the Dreamcast already dead by 9/11? I doubt that game would have sold much.
>1 game
Doesn’t disprove what I said.
Dino Crisis 3 might have been good since Capcom wouldn't have scrapped the original concept for it that likely would have filled the gap between 2 and Dino Stalker.
Instead of fighting middle eastern terrorists in fps games, we'd be fighting Irish terrorists.
no killer 7
americans are fucking obnoxious
rent free
Advance Wars would've been successful in Japan, and we would now play the superior series instead of FE
Americans would still be based.
No sjw decadence
Movies and games still good
You would be able to web people up between the twin towers in Spider-man games.
Deus Ex would still have the towers intact.
Would still have them in Spider-Man games and any games based in NY for that matter.
We wouldn't have the good ol' days.
>plane level
fuck I want that so bad
planes are really underused in modern vidya
I'm not so sure about that.
COD4 came out in 2007 because of how popular Battlefield 2 was which came out in 2005 because of how popular Desert Combat was (which came in 2003 as a mod of BF1942 which came out in 2002) and that was unrelated to 9/11 and before the "War on Terror" had gone fery long.
COD4's story has more in common with Desert Combat/BF2 with a "middle east coalition or unnamed fictional country" and the old post-soviet collapse trope of "Russia goes through an ultranationalist civil war" joining than it ever had with real life 9/11.
The Arab bad guy isn't even shown to be anything but another military dictator not a "terrorist" or jihadist, and is just another pawn of the Russians.
america might have actually made a good game
Flight sims would be a lot less fun.
no niggers in games
everyone outside america don't give a fuck about 9/11
Americans, how do you feel?
This is some next level delusion
feels like this country is on borrowed time full of people who hate each other
Cheney would've found any other flimsy excuse to go apeshit in the middle east and you still wouldve had the wave of smaller Islamic terror attacks throughout the 00s so I doubt things would be much different
A game with Israel as the enemy would basically require you to play as a Muslim nation and neither of those things will ever happen in a big budget title
bingo. i haven't met a single adult here who loves their life. what the actual fuck is wrong with my country, i need to leave
Yoko Taro wouldn't have made his games
The elite have successfully maintained social politics as a division tactic while trillions are funneled out of the economy and stashed overseas
yeah cause we sure are over filled with Vietnam games user
this
kek
this
We wouldn't have muslim middle easterners as the villains in every single fucking goddamn game ever made.
How so?
What will they do with all these trillions once everything goes topsy turvy
OOF
there would be less politics in western video games
retire
Came to this thread just to say this
Watch the fireworks from a comfy retreat/bunker.

>For Nier’s design, he revealed, he was deeply influenced by the events of 9/11 and the world thereafter. 9-11 was an unfortunate event that triggered out of a situation where both sides believed they were doing the right thing. The question is, what did they see from their point-of-view? What does it look like from each other’s perspectives? These were the thoughts that went through his head when he was making Nier.
>reminder everything went to shit because all the government's of the western world decided to capitalise on only 3k people dying
For a start, games would be better
Thanks Yea Forums
do you guys think anyone in the planes survived a bit after the impacts and spent their last minutes thinking "shit, shit"
t. Mudslime
JUST LIKE THE GOOD OLD DAYS AFTER 4/19
No, retard.
Convince me 9/11 wasn'tan inside job
No, you dumb fucking retard.
the porn industry suffered one of its biggest droughts and forced internet distributors to take the helm
>The prevalence of free internet porn is due to 9/11
I can see that happening as one of those chaos theory chain reactions
when the center landmark of a city goes missing for explosive and climactic reasons people want to jerk off and feel alive. possibly have sex.
when the entire lower area of your city is covered in soot, things like prostitution take a funny nosedive. bet you can't find any stripper orgies from October 2001 in NY.
There's no real evidence it was
> I took a trip to Bali in Indonesia from September 2/3-11. I got all sorts of inspiration from there, and just when I was getting ready to return to Japan, I put my luggage in my room and turned on the TV, where I saw the news showing footage of one of the World Trade Center towers burning. I saw the second plane crash in realtime. I won’t write about what happened in the world over the course of the next three months. Just that the creation of Ever17’s plot took place at that time, and the spirit of the times may have had a considerable influence on it.
9/11 did chicken sandwiches
Chicken Sandwiches...?
My initials?
No but it would have still come out. Plus online games in the DC era were welcome.
Pre-9/11 Grand Theft Auto III preview:
>The time of day is not just an aesthetic enhancement, but forms a crucial part of the gameplay. Different sorts of people will be out at different times of the day, so in the early afternoon you may see lots of schoolchildren, but in the middle of the night you can expect to find all sorts of low, dangerous and seedy types crawling out from under their rocks.

Rockstar Games today:
>About 1% different. We removed only one mission that referenced terrorists and changed a few other cosmetic details – car details, a couple of ped comments, lines of radio dialogue etc – the game came out a very short time later. The biggest change was the US packaging which remixed the previous packaging into what became our signature style – because the previous packaging [which was released as the cover of the game in Europe] was, we felt, too raw after 9/11. All of the more extreme rumours are amusing but impossible to have been achieved in such a short period of time.
>As far as we can remember, the list of changes is covered above – the other stuff is nonsense.

No the planes exploded and they died instantly, but you can listen to 911 recordings on youtube from when the towers fall and it’s essentially that.
I’ve listened to it once and have never been able to forget the way the guy screams ”OH GOD”
there would be more WTC appearances in games and less middle eastern terrorists to fight.
Reminder if you actually believe the official story about the 9/11 you are mentally handicapped. 9/11 was controlled demolition. Molten steel was in the rubble of the towers and the first responders were faced with radiation fallout. Your country's leaders murdered it's own citizens for cause to invade the middle East for the sake of Israel. Look up "9/11 dancing israelies".
I once saw a video of a guy who was recording one of the towers falling and the debris/dust got to him, the tape actually cuts off like one of those found footage horror movies.
They only cut the scene of Arsenal crashing into New York and changed the spelling of Raiden's name from katakana to kanji.

What planes?
The plane collapsed at an angle, exploding the moment the jet engines hit the building. The people on the plane didn't die instantly, they felt the initial shock from the impact, the thing that killed them was the actual explosion, which occurred some seconds after.
The way the building is designed, the hull of the plane would have housed some forty to fifty survivors, on a good day, but that fire cooked everything within a couple hundred meters.
George Bush and the CIA would not have pushed the Halo meme if there was no 9/11. Console FPS would be a niche genre and the industry would be dominated by RPGs.
We wouldn’t have gotten pic related, as many have already stated
Based ruskie misinformation poster
the kids and different npcs at night were probably dropped before
twas a drone
9/11 was such a huge joke on this website, I don't think people will ever understand what it was like for citizens who were in the middle of it at the time. For outsiders looking in, it was probably just another thing. Like a natural disaster. For people actually living here, it felt like a literal warzone. No trains, guns everywhere, smoke always in the air, people couldn't even so much as ride the bus without feeling stupid.
Tons of people died in the aftermath too. The glass from the building shattered into fine pieces, mixing in with the ash and smoke, and gave tons of people throat, lung and heart damage from inhaling it. If you lived down there, you were about 40% more likely to die just from the air alone.
kikes always play the victim card you cannot win
Less censoring of videogames, probably no SJW culture.
Damn those ragheads for indirectly killing tactical shooters
Atheism also saw a pretty huge spike after 9/11. The amount of television shows and movies which celebrated atheism saw a ~20% increase by the end of 2004. And by 2007, it was normal to see a show like Heroes on ABC, a traditionally Disney (and subsequently Christian) broadcasting network.
