First Shawn's misadventures, now this. That's (apparently) a screen from Ubisoft's Spanish-teaching DS title, My Spanish Coach. So...an exercise in bad-taste stereotyping, or in teaching kids - regardless of colour or creed - a potentially vital means of explaining their paternal neglect? You, impartial observer, be the judge.
Oh Dad, not again...
So Shawn's grand adventure draws to a close, and we find our hero...abandoned by his "uncle" and working as a drugs mule for a Mexican cocaine dealer. Oh dear. On the bright side, things should be better once he hits France. Sure he's got "family" there that can help him out.
Oh come the hell on now! This cannot be real! Shawn bids adios to the talking bull, who seems to have accepted the inevitabilty of his own demise. As whoever is driving the truck belonging to his grandfather leaves him in a dangerous part of town at night, yet another stranger offers him a ride. Jeeps are cool!
Last we saw Shawn, he and "Aunty" Gina were on their way to Mexico, where Gina was going to dump Shawn at the border so he could go get his DS back from his friend's evil Mexican father. Now...now we just don't what the fuck is going on. Pretty sure bulls don't speak Spanish, though.
No, it's not Y tu mamá también: The Game. Or an exercise in stereotyping Hispanics. This is actually the intro to Activision's Spanish for Everyone, for the DS. Between "Aunty" Gina, his fugitive DS-stealing friend and the ominous FINAL TEST in Tijuana, something tells us Shawn's going to be learning a lot more than just Spanish.
