The creator of the game I think had no intention of making a realist remake of that day. In fact after thinking about it for some time I believe he was making fun of the whole event in a way. The creator purposefully used the Marylin Manson cd. He wanted to show that this can not be blamed on Manson himself. Also he wanted to show that this was not because of video games or television shows. This game was a satire. He used images of Bart Simpson and the Devil from South Park. To show that what he was doing was not a remake of that day. He wanted to show what the media thinks was the cause of that day. If the creator had the intent of making such a disturbing game he would not have made it a RPG. He would have made the graphics life like. The graphics would be more like in Grand Theft Auto. Over all I did not like this game. It was disturbing playing it. Also it was a tedious game to play. I would not recommend the game to others.

The games target audience is mature gamers. There is a lot of profanity used in the game. Almost every other word is profanity. The game also has dead bodies and shootings everywhere. There is a lot of violence in this game. We see media's implication of Marilyn Manson and video games.
The game is trying to show how media does influence children as they grow up. In the second half of the game the player finds himself fighting off demons from the game doom. While the music plays from the the game thought the level. This shows how this disturbed teenagers thought it was a game. When they went around shooting kids and teachers it was like a game to them. The Marilyn Manson cd was very interesting. When you think of Manson you think of disturbing music for the most part. These teens were listening to his music and getting pumped up and ready to kill.
I think media has a lot to do with this game. In hell they meet Bart Simpson. Bart is a little trouble maker in the television show. They show Satan as his is depicted in South Park. All of these references show how media affected these kids. The kids were so submersed in games and television that this was normal to them.

In Super Columbine Massacre the player is sent to do a quest, and they must accomplish the task before they can move on. In the game it feels like you are reliving history.
In the game the player must start over from the last check point if they die in the middle of a level.I found this interesting in terms of realism. When you shoot someone they die. But if you die you just go back to the check point. The sense of realism is not in the game. I think it would be more interesting if the player only had on chance to complete the game. It would make it harder but also more interesting.
The game also has a particular way it must be played. Players are allowed to do what they want but there is not much to do besides fallowing the course the game has set. This is nothing like grand theft auto where you are free to roam the city. It is much more limited here and that is where that sense of realism is lost. I do not think the creators of the game wanted it to be or feel real. But that could explain why the game was made in RPG style. It was not meant to be real.
