No offence meant

Dubai: A new video game — under development and set to a post-apocalyptic Dubai backdrop — is not meant to offend anyone, says California game maker 2K Games.

Set for global release later this year under the name Spec Ops: The Line, the game is mature entertainment that uses the world-famous skyline of Dubai as the setting comparable to many other apocalypse-based movies and games in recent years.

Teaser trailers posted on the internet late last year spawned suggestions by gamers that the new shooter game might be offensive because it depicted Dubai in shambles.
