JFK shooting game provokes anger

A Scottish firm has been criticised by the family of John F Kennedy for producing a game which recreates the president's assassination in Dallas.

"JFK Reloaded" was released on Monday to coincide with the 41st anniversary of the president's assassination. David Smith, a spokesman for Senator Ted Kennedy, the brother of JFK, said the PC-based game was "despicable". A spokesman for Traffic Games said it was encouraging youngsters to take an interest in history. The Stirling-based company argued that the game was aimed at disproving theories that a conspiracy, rather than lone gunman Lee Harvey Oswald, was responsible for the assassination.
