According to The Escapist via ITavisen, the retailer Coop has pulled the following games off the shelves:
- Call of Duty: Black Ops
- Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2
- Call of Duty: World at War Platinum
- Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Classic
- Sniper Ghost Warrior
- Counter-Strike Source
- Homefront
- World of Warcraft
Retailer Platekompaniet gave no definitive list of games, although it was reported that the chain planned to pull games in response to the tragedy.
It should be known that this is not a permanent arrangement. These games are reportedly being taken down "out of respect and in respect to those affected [by the attacks]."
In the manifesto, which The Telegraph reports had large sections plagiarised from the Unabomber's manifesto, Breivik claimed to have used games like the Call of Duty series to help himself prepare for his shooting spree. Breivik also used the manifesto as a kind of journal, often listing his current favorite games, movies, books and music. No move has been made to pull any other media off the shelves.
