In the Dreamcast version, you can see a poster in Come Over Guest house which clearly shows the New York skyline. Empire State Building and the Twin Towers can be made out in the picture. However, in the Xbox version it was changed to just like any big city skyline.
Most people who were old enough to think for themselves in 2001 still remember what they did on that day and how they first learned about the attacks.
The attack on WTC happened at around 3 pm in my country's time zone. That day, school was out at around 1 or 2 and a friend of mine had made plans to meet up at his house directly after school to play some SNES. We were playing with an antenna splitter which would automatically switch back to the TV signal when you shut down the console. So we played for a while and it must have been around 5 when we stopped playing. As soon as my friend shut down his SNES, we saw some footage like this on TV:
I will never forget the dialogue between me and my friend right then. I said something like: "This is some stupid action movie. Come on, change it!" and my friend switched to another channel were we saw literally the same thing. He then got irritated and switched channels yet again but we still saw the very same thing on all stations. My friend then said "Looks like these are all news programms, dude. This is real life." to which I replied "You're right, dude! WTF happened over there?"
Thinking back about that day I still get a feeling of sadness but at the same time I feel kind of detached and numb, like it had happened in another life or even another far away world.
What are your feelings, thinking back now? How did you first learn about 9/11 and what did you do that day?
