Kind of funny, given how desperately gun manufacturers try to blame video games for gun violence. Honestly, I'm surprised this kind of thing doesn't happen more often. I mean if the oil industry is using Fortnight to reach younger audiences, it makes sense that gun companies would target people who play shooters.
Agree that that is the only notable thing about it. But Corp legal departments will say anything to shift blame.
As to the whole story. "Legal product was advertised legally" could just have well have been the title.
No different than Ford paying a movie or game to include a Mustang
