Laden VS USA

The player controls a submarine travelling across the bottom of the screen shooting at fighter jets flying by. The game is divided into 20 levels and automatically levels the player up to the next. When a level is completed, the game plays a pinging version of "Deck the Halls". The higher the level, the more difficult the game becomes.

Laden VS USA is based on the 9/11 incident in 2001, all superimposed over a 9/11 photograph. Although the game is about the 9/11 attacks, the instructions on the back of the packaging appear to have been lifted word for word from the blurb of a boxing game, and the gameplay is seemingly unrelated.

The game is supposedly manufactured by Chinese company Panyu Gaming Electronic Co. , located in Guangzhou, China. Panyu Gaming Electronic used technology almost two decades old when creating the game. Due to mass counterfeiting in China, it is not certain whether the company actually created the game.

The video game is the first to use the September 11 attacks as a main plot device. The game was released in two models, the first being GM-026A-3 and the second, GM-028A-3. The first model can come with yellow or white buttons. The game was also released with pictures of actual 9/11 wreckage on the packaging and pictures of George W.

Laden VS USA has become popular among Pakistani children. Despite this, the game is very controversial and has even been banned from the shelves of a discount store in Warrington, Cheshire, England, after several protests from religious leaders. Teenager Hannah Birchall stated about the incident, "The images on the box bring back all the memories of September 11", and that she thinks that "it will desensitise children to what happened". The game has also created controversy in the town of Brooklyn, NYC, USA, where pedestrians were outraged over the presence of the game in the local store named Oakdale Dairy. YouTube toy reviewer Mike Mozart of JeepersMedia considered Laden VS USA "the worst concept for a game in history" and said that "it boggles the mind that it was actually manufactured and sent to the United States".
