Gamers and developers alike have reacted in dismay at a now-offline Hitman: Absolution promotion which allowed players to identify and threaten Facebook friends for assassination.
Methods of identifying female friends included "her hairy legs", "her muffin top" and "her small tits".
Methods of identifying male friends included "his ginger hair", "his sh** hair" and "his tiny penis".
You could then choose a reason to kill your friend, such as the fact that they "smell bad" or were cheating on their partner.
Your friend then received a personalised video on their Facebook wall identifying them as a target. Signing up to watch the video presented recipients with a mixture of their own photos and Facebook details merged into a video of Hitman character Agent 47 shooting them.
These people wouldn't even recognize a bad idea if it was tattooed on their eyeballs. First the sexist nuns, now this
Earlier today we launched an app based around Hitman: Absolution that allowed you to place virtual hits on your Facebook friends. Those hits would only be viewable by the recipient and could only be sent to people who were confirmed friends. We were wide of the mark with the app and following feedback from the community we decided the best thing to do was remove it completely and quickly. This we've now done. We're sorry for any offense caused by this."

No tits, no friendship. Everyone knows this. I'm hoping someone has the app so I can use it to ensure everyone I know with small tits is fully aware I want them dead.
