A Scottish firm called Traffic Games has launched a downloadable internet game called JFK: Reloaded, where gamers try to recreate John F Kennedy's assassination 41 years ago today.

The first person to most accurately recreate the shots fired from the book depository will win £53,800 ($100,000).

The game is available to download from the publishers website and costs £5.35 ($10).

The game has already been condemned by a spokesman for Senator Edward Kennedy, JFK's brother, who said it was 'despicable', however Traffic Games are defending the game by saying that “it challenges players to help disprove any conspiracy theory”
