OHMIDOG! : App-alling: A dogfighting app for your phone

A Google-owned company called Android has released a dogfighting game application called “Dog Wars,” in which players fight virtual dogs for virtual money.

Developed by Kage Games, the downloadable game allows players to choose an identity, pick their dogs and feed, train and fight them, thereby gaining “cred” and making money.

The game is now available for free download. Players can purchase virtual “adrenaline pens,” from Android which can be used to “revive your dog during a fight or even bring it back to life.”

“Never let your dog go hungry or thirsty… you must train it and feed it a while before you can fight other player’s dogs … Building Cred puts money in your pocket and lets you earn more in fights,” the game description reads.

“Let’s get it on!”

Given its exceedingly bad taste, and how it perpetuates pit bull myths and glamorizes cruel and illegal activity, there are many who’d rather see the game taken off — the market, that is. 

In a post on BSL News, (BSL standing for Breed Specific Legislation), readers are encouraged to flood both Google and Android with emails and complaints.

(Android Software does offer a website where people can complain about objectionable content in their games and apps. You can find it here.)

The makers sound more than a little defensive about the game.

“It is just a video game,” they say in the game description, as if anticipating some controversy. “Perhaps one day we will make gerbil wars or beta fish wars for people who can’t understand fantasy role play games …  Just because something is illegal in real life in certain countries, does not mean it is illegal to make a song, movie, or video game about it.”

It doesn’t mean it’s right, or smart, either.

What’s next, a game in which players compete to see how many children they can molest?

Sure, the folks at Android have a right to market any sick game concept they want. But my advice? Zap that app.

if you have a Android take that shit back. there on the AR agenda this is gas on the fire. this don't help one bit.

 

i think it's fantastic for all the internet doggers. at least they can virtually have an identity instead of making dog forums and on line ped services a train wreck. to me this is harmless and should be taken with a grain of salt. i think this game should be added to the forums games. I'll bet it would make it so no one would post anymore on the forum, as they would be so involved in their virtual Ch's. and thats a good thing. black ops doesn't make people by fatigues and AK 47's only to hit the streets killing people. it's a game, only a game.

 

a game to the oppressed is a living hell !!

 

Wonder if you will be breaking any laws being a dog fighter in the pretend world.
I downloaded the game to see what it is all about, it is no different than Mafia Wars on Facebook. It is no different than the games where players pick up hookers and kill people walking down the street with their vehicles. There are better causes to fight that can be more productive. Mark

 

be careful of anything you do pertaining to censorship, in essence all you're doing is taking away your own rights to free speech and then ultimately thoughts. thats a dangerous slippery slope folks. ask Larry Flint. not only do you allow our own government to take away all our civil liberties, all this does is keep closing doors. you don't like it, don't play it. but don't you dare start censoring me or
my children of anything the constitution protects. censor yourselves, not society.

 

couldnt have said it better.if u dont understand read stillborns post again

 

please watch, and LISTEN.

i don't see any larry flints coming to aid floyd,pat,hh, or jw? why on earth would you want more negative attention on folks that keep apbt. did you buy that 13 year old kid's book about being a dogman? was that a good idea ? this is the shit that ends up on dateline. do you really believe larry flint was fighting for our rights?

 

did you watch the video? apparently not, as you're still trying to justify censorship.

 

lol justifying csnsorship. is that kids book download on your kindall app? where were you when them guys were facing the judge because i doubt you was there with picket signs. you believe larry flint gave two shits about our civil libberty. you'd be wrong it was nothing mor to flint then a way to keep generating income. watch all the movies you want. i can look outside and see what's going on.

 

if you can see whats truly going on then we are both wide awake. if you know what the "all seeing eye" (revers side of the 1$ dollar bill ie:horus) is then you're wide awake, if not you're hypnotized by the few that control the many. and if that's the case lets agree to disagree.

 

This shit app is just Wrong.

 

True BB the Breed doesn't need any more negative attention. This app can only cause more ignorance to the already ignorant. Jmo

 

stillborn did ya just recently discover zeitgeist or Bilderberg lol. you are a hypocrite because the fact is you have $ in your pocket now & most likely you have a job at some point in your life you were in school. you are asking me to watch a movie that was made by a studio that's owed by elitist witch in turn is ran by elitist themselves. it is you my friend that is hypnotized. by the way do you know the time?
