‘Fallujah’ may not see Europe release
Controversial war game Six Days In Fallujah might not see a European release.

Journalists attending a press function in Germany reported publisher Konami was undecided about releasing the game in Europe, according to Eurogamer.

The Iraq-based war game, developed in collaboration with war veterans, has seen both support and criticism since its announcement.

A possible reason for the regional embargo could be US and UK differences, according to war veteran Andy McNab.

"In America a 90-year-old and a 12-year-old will know what happened at Fallujah. It's on the TV, there are books about it. The game is a natural extension to that - it is folklore. The only difference being that it is presented in a different medium," he said to TechRadar.

Developed by Atomic Games, it will be released on PS3, 360 and PC next year.
