Bono under fire for game support
Bono has come under fire from left wing political activists after investing in a video game which depicts Venezuela in a negative light.
The U2 frontman has invested $300m (€235m) in California manufacturers Pandemic Studios, whose game Mercenary 2: World in Flames allows players to play a mercenary sent to Venezuela, which has been taken over by an oil-hungry dictator. The player is told: "If you can see it, you can buy it, steal it, or blow the living crap out of it."
