An old landlord of mine was a big JFK assassination theorist and when I found out about this sim, I just had to try it out and show it to him. Two thoughts from playing it.
1) It's quite possible to shoot JFK and everyone else in the car in the allotted time and with the equipment provided. No grassy knoll required.
2) Oswald was not much of a tactician. You can blast the driver much earlier in the sim, and have the whole car at your mercy with a much cleaner line of fire. Why did he wait so long? It's a lot harder to do what he did than what I describe.

FABIO - 2013-05-18 I had a conspiracy roommate who kept trying to convince me that the Zapruder film CLEARLY SHOWS the driver turning around to shoot Kennedy. "That's why Jackie crawled onto the trunk, man! She was trying to get away from him!"
I guess if you're really looking forward and want to ignore common sense, it soooooort of looks like that through an optical illusion. I pointed out to him that it was just a trick of the sunlight glinting off Kellerman's head lining up with the driver's hand at the moment of the shot, but trying to talk him out of it with obvious facts was like trying to tell a FOX news viewer that Acorn isn't a child sex ring.

This was probably one of the most inexplicable video game controversies ever. The fact that the company that made it went bankrupt, making JFK reloaded abandonware in the process, is one of the best arguments against negative publicity always being a positive of games.

The person playing the game was really withdrawn until the game drew him out of his shell.

Can they made a DLC pack where you're on the USS Abraham Lincoln in 2003 during Bush's Mission Accomplished speech?

No scope AWP headshot
Couldn't they have varying difficulty levels where he's riding the pope mobile then at 5 stars he gets a tank?

I'm glad it happened, but when did the JFK conspiracy stuff move into the UFO true believer credibility neighborhood?
Bugliosi's book on it is great, particularly how he fillets Oliver Stone.

Oscar Wildcat - 2013-05-19 Well you've got to admit it was a boffo career move on the part of John. I mean, no unseemly later scenes of an aging and bloated JFK high on prescription painkillers groping the young flesh up on the Hill. As it is now the man is a Catholic Saint.
