Abusive word gets MindQuiz recalled!

Bad taste but... what word exactly was it? My ex gf was in a wheelchair and I would not say she would be offended by a computer calling her whatever, it's only a computer!

A video game which uses a term abusive to people with disabilities is being pulled by its manufacturer.

MindQuiz, a brain training game for the Nintendo DS handheld console, was released in the UK by French software giant Ubisoft in March 2007.

However, poor performance in one section sees the player labelled in an offensive manner.

The company has apologised "to anyone who was offended by the game" and said it will withdraw it.
