Game over for former dictator Manuel Noriega
The former leader of Panama, deposed in the late 1980s and captured by US forces in 1989, had taken a case against the makers of Call of Duty: Black Ops II, claiming his reputation was damaged by his portrayal in the game.
The depiction of him in the game is certainly forthright, with his character prone to acts of violence, while Noriega, now 80, also claimed that the game manufacturer had not sought his permission ahead of using him as a character.
