As for "sense" well... I think that they may think all the brouhaha is simply positive publicity. I think that by making a statement that look racist they make it harder for themselves. I look at the statement and imagine a different minority instead of Haitians (a minority I belong to sort of, for instance) and it's hard not to be sensitive about it. Thus it does seem to be a hostage to a certain kind of campaign. I think that may get in the way of the profits at some points. The game's content would have ensured it plenty of sensational publicity anyway...

<shrugs> marketing is not an exact science, this is a hunch that they overegged the pudding, that's all...
