Columbine Video Game Stirs Controversy

May 25, 2006 | ISSUE 42•21

A controversial web videogame, Super Columbine Massacre RPG, allows players to act as the shooters in the Columbine High School slayings of 1999. What do you think?

Richard Banker
Technical Project Manager
The game is disgusting. Cheesy 2-D graphics, bland topography, and no multi-player capability. What kind of animal would design such a thing?

Lloyd Karlin

Anyone know how to get to the cafeteria? I'm still stuck on the library level.
