Six Days in Fallujah (SDIF) is an unreleased historical third-person shooter video game developed and left unreleased by Atomic Games. Described by Atomic Games as a tactical shooter, it was slated to be the first video game to focus directly on the Iraq War.
Before “Call of Duty” turned from a World War II series and into a modern military blockbuster, game developer Destineer, with studios in both Raleigh and Minneapolis, began crafting “Six Days in Fallujah.” Its dramatic interactive take on a deadly, real-life Iraq battle, mixed in interview footage from marines who were there, to accurately depict a recent wartime event.
“The greatest generation has Normandy. Gen X will have Fallujah,” writes Ssg David Bellavia in his book “House to House,” recounting his November 2004 experience within the Iraqi city. The Department of Defense called “some of the heaviest urban combat Marines have been involved in since Hue City in Vietnam in 1968.” Yet, Fallujah’s story never reached beyond text and documentaries. Unlike “Black Hawk Down” or the recent “12 Strong,” Fallujah’s story remains cinematically untold.
But it almost happened. Soon after the military’s operation, after two months of combat, Destineer headed by founder Peter Tamte,

Atomic Games has said that Six Days in Fallujah is 'definitely not cancelled' and that the controversial Iraq War shooter remains 'very important' to the studio.
Peter Tamte, the president of Breach maker Atomic, told Digital Spy that he hopes to finish Six Days in Fallujah, but it will 'require time and persistence'.
Announced in 2009, Six Days in Fallujah was to be the first game based on the 2003 invasion of Iraq, taking inspiration from the Second Battle of Fallujah, in which 1,500 insurgents and 38 US troops reportedly lost their lives.
However, the game attracted criticism from Iraq war veterans in the UK and campaign group Stop the War Coalition, who claimed that it was insensitive to the victims of the battle and came too soon after the real events.
Former British Army colonel Tim Collins told a newspaper at the time: 'It's much too soon to start making video games about a war that's still going on, and an extremely flippant response to one of the most important events in modern history. It's particularly insensitive given what happened in Fallujah, and I will certainly oppose the release of this game.'
The slew of criticism resulted in a statement on April 28, 2009, from intended publisher Konami that it would not longer back the game.

Peter Tamte, the president of Atomic Games, said that Konami's decision to pull out of publishing Six Days in Fallujah cost Atomic 'many millions of dollars'.

An overall decline in the packaged games market then caused 'many distributors that owed us money not to pay and virtually eliminating our ability to attract new investors for a packaged video game', he added.
However, despite all the controversies around Six Days in Fallujah, Tamte hopes one day that the shooter will be released.

'Six Days in Fallujah is definitely not cancelled. It is very important to us for reasons far beyond just making a product that we finish Six Days,' he said. 'But, it will require time and persistence.'
