What are some Anti-Black moments and connotations that you have noticed from certain videogames? These can be videogames that you have played in the past, just recently played etc.

I can't think of anything (at the moment). However, blackice_ATL has an interesting example. Hopefully, he shares...

    Balrog in Street Fighter Alpha 3. When he gets hit, he looks like a coon bucking his eyes and lips. I think Balrog is a secret character on Street Fighter Alpha 3.

    The Japanese name for Barlog in street fighter 2 is Mike bison
    But they changed it to balrog to avoid getting sued by Mike Tyson And bison was originally supposed to be called Vega
    And Vega was originally supposed to be called balrog So in Street fighter two came to the United States they just switched around the names otherwise they have codenames which is boxer, claw and dictator.

    The weird confusing origins of Street Fighter's Balrog

    Balrog's real name is M. Bison, and M.Bison is really Vega, and Vega's really Balrog. Wait...what?

    I broke Jay's heart with this, but Zelda:Breathe of the Wild.
    It features the town of Gerudo with nothing but "strong black women". No men are allowed.
    In the game, some of the women are literally taking classes about how to divest and find a husband. All the ones that got married, married white men.
    Then they had a special side quest where Link helped build a town and hooked up one of the Gerudo women with a fat white guy and they lived happily ever after. lol.
    The last Gerudo boy they gave birth to was Gannondorf, the evil black man.

    There is another town of black people. They are fishermen. And all the black men are docile.

    Weren't a majority of black characters in video games often just stereotypes for the most part? I remember when they made a game based on Bad Boys, and they used random voice actors to play the parts. I just remember it being cringy and racist sounding, like the people they chose to voice

    I can't think of anything off the top of my head though. But I'm sure there are many games out there that have bad connotations.

    I can't say I have noticed any because I haven't been paying close attention to it, I just pick up my controllers, play for a few minutes and I'm done.
