JFK video game?

[Spiffy NIffy]

I heard a while back that they are making a video game where the main point of the game is to assasinate John F. Kennedy. Does anybody know of this ?

I remember seeing some News spots about the game.  Caused a bit of a stir at it's release.


Sure, I think it's crude and all that, but there is one interesting aspect of it.  If I'm not mistaken, the developers were saying that if you could kill JFK in the exact manner the Warren Commission concluded, you would be rewarded with cash.  125,000 or so I believe.

The makers of the game have claimed that the purpose of the game is to show that three shots could have been fired in the timeframe in which the assassination occured in order to put to rest conspiracy theories. I guess that means that their simulation has more relation to reality than an actual marksman a news program hired to recreate the event and could not fire three shots within the timeframe. Of course as part of their interest in historical accuracy they are also charging a price for the game. Considering the timeframe involved, it seems like it would be a very short game.

Is it coming out though? Wouldnt it also be a short game if you just had to kill him?Or do they make you do other things like plan it and what not?

It's already out. I do not have it nor have I played it. It was released this past November for the 41st anniversary of the assassination. You might try a google search to find it online. I believe it is available for download for about $10 unless you find it on a warez site.

He is in a moving vehicle for only a few seconds before he is out of range. If they have taken declination into consideration, you may want to try firing slighty ahead of the target.
