Damn it! I know I shouldn’t, but I am laughing my ass off! I played like 3 levels earlier before I got bored with it. I liked the idea of the Tea-tards as mindless zombies. it seemed funny to me, I just couldn't maintain interest. Yeah, I imagine that would be so. So I didn’t try it. I think I just found it funny because I saw the title and thought by “Liberal FPS” it meant “FPS where the player shoots liberals”. So I just got a total opposite of my expectation. And I feel a bit like a douchebag, too. Cause I would have been rightfully mad if it had met my expectations. So you know: double standard. Well, if that’s a problem, then I guess I have it identified and can do something about it.

This is true.. a few years ago I'd have probably been like "Ohhh, that's terrific parody calling them zombies! But do we have to kill them? We'd get mad if it was one of ours."
Now I think I've become so jaded all I can do is start cackling my ass off.... that's not good u.u.. that means I'm becoming caustic like they are, passive-agressive and whatnot.

Don't politicians know that the best politically motivated game is one that is subtle and intertwines with a reasonable engaging story?

Just looked at the screen shots, it looks really bad. While I can appreciate political irony in a game like this, it just sucks that they don't bother making it better and more in-depth. Like a game where its more a survival against the republicans trying to kill all the democrats and the liberals are fighting for their lives and not against a horde of zombies. So many better implementations could have been used.
Hell I for one even liked the idea of that rapture game the fundies came up with. It has a good basic premise that could have been expanded on to make for a really deep game. (of course it would first require tossing out the bigotry) Its kind of depressing that potentially good and unique game ideas, are flushed with bad implementations.

My ideal Rapture game is a one that is played out in a Rage Against The Heavens format.
First the Anti Christ is crushed by the combined forces of several angry sovereign nations.
Then they storm Heaven to free the abducted humans.
