I'm planning on making a web video series where I review controversial games and propaganda games. I would like some sugestions. I don't want any games that already have tons of stuff written about them and that most people have played, so don't suggest something like DOOM or GTA.

So far I have:

Freedom!

America's Army

Soldier of Fortune

Night Trap

Postal

Farenheit

Ethnic Cleansing

Harvester

JFK: Reloaded

Dead or Alive: Xtreme Beach Volleyball

Super Columbine RPG

ZOG's Nightmare

Many people hated Sonic 2006 for its horrible gameplay design. You should try to play through the game and see what you think.

I was thinking more of games that offended people because of their content not execution.

No no ... I don't think that there are any controversies with the call of duty.

There was the COD game where everyone was up in arms because in one mission, you play an undercover agent, who's infiltrated a terrorist cell, and you are forced to go along with a terrorist plot where you either shoot civilians or let them be shot.... There was already enough written about this at the time.

However, none of those articles mentioned how this "controversial" mission fit into the game's plot - that the crazed American military leader had deliberately put you in that situation, and forced you to fail at stopping the terrorists, as part of his plan to start a global conflict by creating terrorist attacks against his own country, so that there would be an excuse for him to recruit more Americans and deploy them overseas... Something something nine eleven was an inside job references, etc...
