quote: Kirk Ewing, managing director of the Scottish firm Traffic Games, which developed the game, said he understood some people would be horrified at the concept, but he insisted he and his team had nothing but respect for Kennedy and for history.
"We believe that the only thing we're exploiting is new technology," said Ewing, a former documentary filmmaker and senior executive with Scottish developer VIS, responsible for games like "State of Emergency." He said he sent Edward Kennedy a letter before the game's release.
Jeesh. It wasn't bad enough to have a completely offensive premise - they also had to make sure it wouldn't be fun. I've played games that sound more interesting with my toenails.

JFK's assasination was a suicide involving time travel, Hoover's blackmail and a greatly evolved cat.
