So apparently there's an "FPS" concept game that takes on the events of 9/11 from a victim's point of view. The goal is to escape from the towers. The site is not up currently, so I can't really comment on it. It does, however, use the Unreal engine, which is so ironic I can't even take the meta-ness of it all.
This is of course related to my POV/POW project, which looks at FPS games in the context of the war experiences of civilians, especially women and children.

addendum: The site is now up. I got to the index page and just couldn't look any more. It's not PTSD or anything, but there are some images I can't look too closely at. I'm sorry. Someone else will have to talk about this game.
