In that same sense, if a developer (or business or individual) has a brain to come up with a concept and the wherewithal to realize that concept into some creative art-form then please (, Please, PLEASE!!!) do your self the service and your idea the honor of thinking about the consequences of your action *BEFORE* you begin. Not doing so is insulting to the people who work for you, insulting to the people who you are making it for, and insulting to the very idea itself.

If you are going to capitalize on something else in order to gain sales, be it on popular or controversial media, make sure you do it both a) when the idea is fresh, and b), if only the name inspires controversy, release it as soon as possible.
Almost every time a social disaster happens (guantanamo, school shootings, other things i can't think of because i don't keep current with the news), you usually see some bad flash game based off the idea released on the internet within a week or two. If some relatively talent and inspiration-free flash game designers can understand the concept of releasing while the subject is still "hot," why can't actual dev companies?

Alleged terrorist. In the same way that if I accuse someone of humping sheep, he's allegedly into beastiality.

A game being developed in Scotland has no business being shut down for U.S. "National Security reasons".

secondly - since he was released, i dont think there is anything stopping him from talking about what it was like in there -- freedom of speech n all that... no different than how any prisoner can leave any prison and describe what the conditions were like

Considering Gitmo seems to be all chainlink fence and tarp, there's probably quite a bit he can see.
@MooglesInMyFace:
What's "classified" in the U.S. is not necessarily classified in other countries. For example, I can go to Nepal and project detailed plans of the Pentagon on the side of Mt. Everest and there's nothing the U.S. Gov't can legally do about it - unless, of course, the Nepalese government provides U.S. officials with some measure of authority in Nepal.

No, but you would be hunted down by CIA officials or the like, and tried for treason.

Or is this a game actually a training simulator for Al Queda disguised as a game?
Maybe its time to declare a war on terror in Scotland.

Too fuckin' right it is. That soundtrack made me want to get on the phone to Clint Mansell and insist that he sue them. The graphics remind me of Cyberia (the 3rd person adventure puzzle game from [checks MobyGames] Interplay back in 1994 and the script would make an Army of Two writer blush.
