JFK Re loaded
MOST BIZARRE WORLD'S EVER WORST SEX AMAZING COOLEST UNFORTUNATE UNBELIEVABLE DISASTER FUNNIEST HILARIOUS INCREDIBLE EXTREME STRANGEST EXCELLENT
JFK Reloaded caused quite a stir when it was released. So just what is this PC game all about? “Where were you when John F Kennedy was assassinated?”
Whereas September 11th is now etched into popular culture as a defining moment of history, JFK’s assassination is probably regarded as one of the 20th century’s most infamous events – especially to those who were around at the time. Being the youngster that I am, I wasn’t around then, so it’s not something I can relate to on a personal level.
Computer games have always used historical events as their backdrop: just look at how many World War 2 themed games there are. That said, computer games generally skirt around “taboo” subjects, even if they have been visited time and time again in literature and cinema. After all, games are interactive right? So no game company wants to be branded a provocateur, after all, we’ve got to think of the children!
Therefore it caused quite a stir, when on November 22, 2004; Scotland based Traffic Games released “JFK Reloaded” – 3D, first-person perspective, “assassination simulator”. The premise is simple enough: you (the player) are Lee Harvey Oswald, you are in the infamous book repository and you have a gun, and we all know what happens next.

JFK reloaded caused a huge controversy in the US when released, and not surprisingly, Traffic Games quickly folded and disappeared under the weight of criticism from politicians and social commentators. The game is now considered abandonware – that is no one actually owns the rights to it. Almost 2 years later, the game has slipped from popular memory. So, Cool.com.au presents the free – abandonware – version of the game for you to download. The game requires a Windows computer – but given its age, it should run fine on most computers these days.
If you download and play it – ask yourself, is this game a valid historical simulator? Or is it deliberately a “shocker”, designed to garner publicity and outrage? Either way, Traffic Games is no more, so you’ll not be supporting their ill-gotten gains. When you’re done – and you will be pretty quickly – believe me, shoot us some feedback on what you think JFK: Reloaded is really like.
Warning: This game contains semi-realistic violence. If you are young, please consult your parents before downloading. If you are just plain squeamish, avoid it and go look at some pretty flowers.
