Mass Effect is Porn ?!?!
There are still people living in the Dark Ages...
Cybercast News Network spoke with several people from the Family Research Council who believe that Mass Effect is clearly pornographic and should probably be banned
Cybercast News Network spoke with several people from the Family Research Council who believe that Mass Effect is clearly pornographic and should probably be banned
The game is "clearly marketed to minors," Cathy Ruse, a lawyer and senior fellow for legal studies at the Family Research Council, told Cybercast News Service.
"There are cultural implications for feeding porn to kids in this way," and "when you do this, you're teaching them a distorted lesson about human sexuality and human dignity. These are lessons that they will take with them into adulthood and ultimately society," Ruse said
And believe it or not, it gets even better:"There are cultural implications for feeding porn to kids in this way," and "when you do this, you're teaching them a distorted lesson about human sexuality and human dignity. These are lessons that they will take with them into adulthood and ultimately society," Ruse said
Bob Waliszewki, media specialist with Focus on the Family, told Cybercast News Service, "We never shy away from sexuality in the media. It's just a question of how is that sexuality portrayed. One can use the media to portray some very healthy forms of sexuality. And when done wisely with taste and age-appropriateness, it can be done well."
"Unfortunately," he said, "Mass Effect doesn't do that and even goes so far as to allow homosexuality to be on par with heterosexuality and heterosexuality outside of its proper context of marriage."
It seems they want to have more people like Jack Thompson looking at stuff like this:"Unfortunately," he said, "Mass Effect doesn't do that and even goes so far as to allow homosexuality to be on par with heterosexuality and heterosexuality outside of its proper context of marriage."
Ruse noted that "most states have what's called 'Harmful to Minors' laws on the books that say that selling sexual material that a jury would deem 'patently offensive to minors, which lacks literary, artistic, political or scientific value.' ... might be prosecutable."
However, she also noted that these laws are "very likely not enforced." Rather than new laws, "we need state and local prosecutors with spines and backbones to prosecute some of these companies that are violating the law" in order to prevent children from being exposed to indecent material, she said
Next up: a woman being sent to jail for wearing a skirt that shows her legs?However, she also noted that these laws are "very likely not enforced."

I'm pretty sure you can accomplish this in The Sims as well as Fable.

there's apparently a scene where you can see the naked butt from one of the main characters or something
I have scene the quote-on-quote "Sex Scene" all you see is Commander Shepard's butt. Funny how I remember seeing the Romeo and Juliet movie in school and you see Leonardo Dicaprio's butt and my school didn't even flinch.

"The game is "clearly marketed to minors," Cathy Ruse, a lawyer and senior fellow for legal studies at the Family Research Council, told Cybercast News Service. " - Yes, clearly - since 18+ are all minors, I don't know about the rest of you - But I'm 24 and I don't appreciate being labeled a minor.
""Unfortunately," he said, "Mass Effect doesn't do that and even goes so far as to allow homosexuality to be on par with heterosexuality and heterosexuality outside of its proper context of marriage."" - What, the hell, is this guy on? Sounds to me like he's some kind of conservative idiot with homophobia.
It's really quite sad how they blatantly ignore the age restriction of the game. If a child is a minor, and plays the game - play the parents. nuff sed.
