    About 3 days after the attacks on the World Trade Center CNN reported the game makers would start taking out images of the World Trade Center out of games. I started thinking and there were only two games that I could think of that have the WTC or images of them and one is Sim City 3000 and the other is NBA Street for PS2. Neither of these images is bad, as in SC3K the WTC is a landmark building that you can proudly display in your city and in NBA Street there is a brief image of the twin towers in the background when the game is loading. I've never seen a game with the WTC in a bad image or situation. Are there any other games which I am missing?

    You can fly a jet straight into them in MS Flight Simulator.

    WHOA! Please tell me that's one of the first games pulled off the shelf or at least changed up.

    It was. I heard on the news that a lot of stores were pulling it the day of the attack. I heard that MS said it will release a patch for it removing the Towers.
