Sony PlayStation boycott

Hindu groups worldwide have called for a boycott of all Sony PlayStation products in response to the company's Hanuman: Boy Warrior, on the grounds that the PS2 game “trivializes the highly revered deity of Hinduism”. Led by "acclaimed Hindu statesman" Rajan Zed, religious leaders took their concerns over the game to Sony, who apparently refused to discuss the matter and whose "callous attitude" has now prompted action.

IMO: Sony is not doing well at the moment. Doubtless Jesus Christ will be the next victim, with "gay Jesus" games to allow small boys to have mock sexual congress with Jesus. Not a joke, I have heard such ideas mooted and I dare say that it would also sell Sony games. But surely Sony could consider the views of those who do not wish for blasphemy.
