JFK Reloaded https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JFK_Reloaded

Was it removed from the gaming market because of it's controversy? or was it just bad gameplay ?

i remember having this game on my PC way back in the day and was worried I was on a government registry. But turns out we were all on a government registry thanks to Edward Snowden so whatever lol .

for a game that sessions last 2 min max, you can be sucked in for hours trying to pull it off.

I will proceed to answer your question by posting a review made by Home of the Underdogs.

The teal deer is that yes. It was removed because it was controversial. You can still play it, sure, but I'm not going to tell you where to look.

I would argue that the game wasn’t “removed” for being controversial. The game was made by a small, obscure developer; and it made headlines in Nov 2004, and was criticized in the media; but never disappeared as a result of the critics. The game was only designed to be around for that short time after the $100k contest to match Oswald’s shots.

After that, the game was largely forgotten about. Like vaporware/abandonware.

It's not a bloody debate. I reposted a review that was originally on Home of the Underdogs in my response.

Don't edit my posts when responding to me. Don't attempt to initiate some manner of debate with me over a post made in bloody February. I don't take kindly to either or.

Why would the CIA have him killed publicly anyway, it makes no sense. It would make more sense if his plane crashed or he was dealt with from prying eyes. He was killed by Oswald, end of story.

He botched the Bay of Pigs and threw the CIA under the bus to appease the international community, which in turn saw the CIA and the Cosa Nostra putting him down. Oswald was a patsy, he wasn't shot from the grassy knoll. He was shot from the front.

I'd add, at the time, the CIA was infamous for botched or messy assassinations. We will probably never know the full story. But rogue or unsanctioned CIA makes the most sense to me. He did botch the Bay of Pigs, no doubt. But he was presented with an impossible choice that was already in motion. The CIA boinked the Bay of Pigs through idiocy, hubris, and absolute lack of planning. JFK was just left holding the ball. In retrospect, he should have killed the operation, but he knew that would lose him the center-right, so he made the expedient, not the correct call.

"Oswald acted alone" made zero sense in the Warren Report, and makes even less sense today. You don't have t be a conspiracy theorist to spot a lie. Especially an elaborate, badly told lie.

I used to run this game all the time, but now that I got a new pc, the replays only show the last few moments. Processor affinity issue? Anyone else get that bug and was able to fix it?

I mean, I could reupload it. I used tools from facepunch that literally let you shoot from anywhere.
