[IMG]http://gamepolitics.com/files/blogimages/six-day-screen.jpg[/IMG][URL=http://www.atomic.com/]Atomic Games[/URL] President Peter Tamte [URL=http://gamepolitics.com/2009/10/20/six-days-fallujah-sister-dev-preps-marine-title]indicated late last year[/URL] that his company was “committed” to finishing the controversial Six Days in Fallujah videogame and it appears he has remained true to his word.

A [URL=http://ps3.ign.com/articles/107/1073461p1.html]story on IGN[/URL], citing a “source close to the game’s development,” reports that the game has been completed, though a release date for the game, or publisher, was not disclosed.

Konami had initially backed the project and was going to serve as its publisher before [URL=http://gamepolitics.com/2009/04/07/outrage-over-konami039s-quotsix-days-fallujahquot]a series of negative public reactions[/URL] to the game became public. The families of military personnel wounded or killed in the Iraqi war, and even some soldiers themselves, believed that it was too soon for such a game to be released, as the war was still ongoing (and indeed still is today) at the time of the announcement.

Other groups expressed dismay over the project due to heavy civilian losses reported in the real fight over Fallujah. Additional reports that [URL=http://gamepolitics.com/2009/04/14/insurgents-contributing-quotsix-days-fallujahquot-says-developer]insurgents may have helped contribute[/URL] to the game’s development did nothing to lessen the controversy surrounding the title.

Konami eventually bailed on Atomic Games and Six days in Fallujah [URL=http://gamepolitics.com/2009/04/27/troubled-controversy-konami-drops-six-days-fallujah]in April of last year[/URL], citing negative reactions to the game.
