Inclusion of Castro in Black Ops game doesn't amuse Cuba

The government of Cuba has issued a severe rebuke of the "Call of Duty – Black Ops" video game, over the addition of Fidel Castro.

Controversy with the Fidel Castro mission

Activision came out with "Call of Duty – Black Ops” where there is a Special Operations Group behind enemy lines that the players within the regular game mode go on missions in the Cold War era. The missions are part of a series of flashbacks, taking place in various areas, from Cuba to Vietnam and all points in between. The Bay of Pigs invasion is the first where the mission is to assassinate Fidel Castro. The Cuban government is mad about the video game although it is one of the most successful of all time, Reuters reports. The game "stimulates sociopathic attitudes" among young adults. This is what the Cuban government thinks. Cuban officials also bitingly add the game is the United States trying to do virtually what it “did not achieve in more than 50 years.”.

Hidden level has Castro also

Kotaku explains that "Black Ops" zombies are an option in the multiplayer mode where the legions of the undead are battled by players. Available characters are John F. Kennedy, Robert S. McNamara, Richard Nixon, and Fidel Castro. The level with Fidel Castro in it in the "Black Ops" multiplayer wasn't mentioned. Apparently Cuba didn't discover it necessary. It is fair the Cuban government is offended by all of this though.

Report on the Family Jewels

"Family Jewels" had been a record that the Central Intelligence Agency released in 2007. There were reports on assassination. The tries were written on assassinating Fidel Castro too. Everything from an exploding cigar to poisoning Castro's wetsuit were used by the U.S. government when contracting with organized crime. Cuba is still fairly soar about things even if "Call of Duty – Black Ops" is just a video game.
