The president of Venezuela, Hugo Chavez has spoken out against Sony saying that the PlayStation is “poison.”
Chavez took on Sony in his weekly radio/TV show ‘Alo Presidente’ and called on local manufacturers to make educational toys and dolls with indigenous peoples' features to replace capitalistic counterparts like the Barbie doll that "have nothing to do with our culture."
"Those games they call 'PlayStation' are poison. Some games teach you to kill. They once put my face on a game, 'you've got to find Chavez to kill him.'"
"[These games also] promote the need for cigarettes, drugs and alcohol so they can sell them. That's capitalism, the road to hell."
The bloke, clearly, has a few screws loose. Perhaps we should visit him and give him a copy of LittleBIGPlanet. That should cheer the miserable git up.
