my question

What is a good question? A good question is do you think that resident evil games are racist?
I found this on resident evil 5 so I want you to see is racist or not.

“The first time I saw the trailer I didn’t think anything of it. As a matter of fact, the first thing I thought was, “Gee-whiz, the graphics are freaking awesome.” Seeing all the new moves attached to Chris’ maneuverability repertoire almost made me giggle like a little school girl…in a very manly way, of course. I was also very intrigued by the story, given that it was in an exotic new location (i.e., Africa) and the main character from the original Resident Evil was finally back to finish the fight. But then after watching the extended E3 2007 trailer of Resident Evil 5 for like the sixth time – when I was no longer dissecting what you could do and what looked to be actual gameplay – I noticed a very obvious thing about the trailer; it exuded layers of racism.”

I don’t think some games are racist because I played alot of games and none of them seemed racist to me but some games I think need a character from all cultures so it won’t seem racist.
