PS3 - Resistance Forgiven By Manchester Cathedral
It looks as if the war of words between the Manchester Cathedral's church leaders and Sony is over. Following notice that Resistance had not won an award at the recently- closed British Academy Video Games Awards it was learned that Sony was forgiven for using images of the Manchester Cathedral without permission in the game.
The Very Reverend Rogers Govender, the Dean of Manchester Cathedral, released this statement:
I think some important lessons have been learnt. So we do forgive Sony for what they have done, even though they still believe they have done nothing wrong. In an industry that is breaking new frontiers, it is important that long held traditions of film and television are maintained.
These traditions include having courtesy, respecting the dignity of your subject, and admitting when mistakes have been made. In so many ways Sony have failed to live up to these standards by disrespecting people of faith and the victims of gun crime here in Manchester.
On a bit of a side note, the furor about the game seems to have made for an increase in visitors to the Cathedral, according to a BBC report.
