One website called AlterNet is attacking the Resident Evil franchise calling it a racist gaming franchise.

The reasoning behind this is that the author states that the use of non-whites in the game is done in a very derogatory manner.

He stated that if you ever go check out Resident Evil: Extinction in theaters, which was number one in the box office last weekend, that you will see violent and dangerous representations of non-whites.

The article is a bit over the edge and I must say on behalf of PCN that we do not agree with it at all.

Regardless though he stated that the way in which you fight Spanish people named Los Genadaos or "the cattle" is very demeaning to those people. He also stated that the stereotypical Mexican accents are also uncalled for.

So we ask you, what do you guys think? Is Resident Evil a racist franchise?
