Valve has removed a game from its British Steam storefront following a request from the UK's counter-terrorism unit.

I’ve been thinking of this game in the context of recent discussion about Steam’s laissez-faire content moderation

Hey, thanks UK counter-terrorism unit. I hadn’t heard of this game before and it looks fun enough to justify spending $5 on it.

Surprisingly good reviews for something that doesn’t look like a very good game, and is more of a political statement than a game.

It’s definitely not like COD in that it uses real-world events and factions, and not in a fictionalized setting.

There’s not really a distinction due to the CoD airport mission. They both are what they are.
