BLACK Ops 2 and Medal of Honor: Warfighter have been banned from sale in Pakistan.
Both games are accused of showing the country in a poor light regarding its links with terrorism, Mashable reports. The games appear to suggest that the country's intelligence agency supports al-Qaeda, Pakistani shopkeepers have argued.
"The problem is that there are things that are against Pakistan and they have included criticism of our army," explained Saleem Memon, president of All Pakistan CD, DVD, Audio Cassette Traders and Manufacturers Association.
"They show the country in a very poor light," he added.
Both games feature levels based in Pakistan, including Warfighter's Darra Gun Market multiplayer map, which was included as part of the game's 'Zero Dark Thirty' DLC.
The news comes ahead of the release of Black Ops 2's 'Revolution' pack, which will be available first on Xbox Live from January 29. –DS
