Church Troubles Sony Over Cathedral-cum-Warzone


Grr, arg

Sony Playstation 3's photo-real graphics may be a little too real. The Church of England may sue Sony Computer Entertainment over a depiction of its Manchester Cathedral as the site of a gun battle in the popular Playstation 3 title Resistance: Fall of Man, reports Next Generation.

Though Sony claims it did, the Church claims it did not get permission to use the cathedral. The Church asked Sony to remove the game from general sale or modify its content.

Sony will also be asked to make a donation to the Cathedral's educational department and support gun control in Manchester.

Sony has countered by saying Resistance: Fall of Man is science fiction and is not based on reality.
