Controversial Ad Appearances

The advertising campaign for Activision's newest title in the wildly successful Call of Duty has sparked a controversy, due to the people included in the ad, and what they're show doing. A commercial shows Kobe Bryant and Jimmy Kimmel, among others, shooting, blowing things up and causing other assorted mayhem. Several people have since come out and condemned their appearances, questioning the example it sets for young people. Below, you can see the ad for your self. Do you have a problem with their role in this ad?

  2. This is a nice ad and as always, TV news just didn't care about disasters from other countries and decided to talk about what kids learn from these. This is annoying!
