Manchester Cathedral “forgives” Sony

October 24th, 2007 by Monitor

When Sony set a scene of its video game “Resitance: Fall of Man” in Manchester Cathedral, the Church demanded an apology, the withdrawal of the game, and a substantial donation. It got only a “sorry if you were offended” apology.

But everything is okay now. Sony has been forgiven.
