Quite right too. Totally disgusting to use a photo from a real-life insuch a way for pure entertainment. The game developers, Legacy Interactive, have apologised and siad that future releases will have the photo removed.

Can you imagine how the mother (and family) of the murdered toddler must feel. How can anyone possibly justify using a real photo of young child being led away to his death. Disgraceful and immoral to say the least.

While I agree to a point...than somethingawful.com should be shut down too and all those other sites that post peoples death images/videos and what have you.

Bad taste? Yes. Intentional? Since it was released in 2003 and is just now being mentioned, probably not.

Just a heads up to let you know that Legacy has apologized for the photo.
