Leave my fucking Mass Effect alone

I don't like to advocate violence, but Jesus Christ. This man should be loosed naked into the savannah, where wild animals - drunk on his heady bouquet - will attempt to drag him in different directions simultaneously. I'm clearly in the wrong line of fucking work.

See this is the reason I don't fucking pay attention to all the fuck-ups that try and run for president.

I like to advocate violence, mainly when it's necessary, but yeah. he should be slowly cut to pieces and fed the parts, whilst being perpetually being stitched up and having continual infusions of blood so that he survives long enought o die just of lack of body parts

Totally agree, except for the violence part. That would just give more creedence to his claims about us.

Okay, fuck it, let's chop off his dick and make him choke on it.

They're making it sound like the sex minigame is available right from the start. I checked it out on my cousin's Xbox over Christmas break, and all I saw the ability to customize your character to be pretty much anything, though I just went with the default one, and a crapload of dialog, exposition and not enough alien shooting for my liking. Then I played Gears of War and laughed as I chainsawed and headshotted aliens. Where's the controversy over that game? Yeah, there's controversy over the gay parody Newgrounds made of it, but that's not directed at the game itself.
I don't like Mass Effect very much, but that's because of the massive amount of dialog and sidequests, not because you can have sex with a person who has the same name as that guy from Evil Dead (though that's got some impact too). So it's purely as a game I don't really want to play and not because it's offensive. Although, I like Bioware's system of the choices in dialog you can make.
Seriously, the game is rated M. There's a reason why it's not intended to easily get into the hands of people under 18.

Another one

Like what the fuck?? The only reason you get to have sex is because you answer the right thing at the right time. It’s not like God of War where the sex mini-game is right off the bat. this part is like 3/4th into the game. Most porn addicts probably wouldn’t make it that far into the game because they need to see some tits or dicks....

And yet, I'm still playing it.
I'd also like to mention a couple things. One, the sex SCENE (Not minigame, scene, and it's really just implied sex. Oh, and it lasts maybe 15-20 seconds, shorter than the stuff in most media these days) requires you talk with the person repeatedly between missions. Seriously, it actually takes some work to get it.

Two, it doesn't fucking show anything! OMG, an asscheek, that's immoral! M ratings are supposed to be equivalent to an R, right? And T with PG-13? Matrix Reloaded, an R-rated movie, has a much more explicit scene than Mass Effect. Mass Effect's is more along the lines of James Bond, maybe a little bit "worse". And what are James Bond movies rated?

Seriously, people make to big a fuss about the smallest things. Teh games, dey r goin to korrupt our gr8 nashun!

And, after the second one, came this.
Now, while I may see it as just him back-pedaling to get out of the hot water he got himself into, I do appreciate that he apologized, no matter how little he may have meant it.

Yes, yes, double post, blah blah blah.

Apology accepted. Glad to see people are willing to change.
Well, I read it and he does make some valid points. Our messed-up culture finds violence acceptable but not sex for some reason. But y'know, whatever. He's allowed to be upset by the fact that there's sex in video games. And sex on TV. And sex on the internet. He can try to get it harder to find and keep young children away from it. But he can't totally stop it.

So, long story short, I think he's learned not to mess with the combined power of millions of gamers, even if some of them are pretty wack. (the guy who came up with the sodomized corpse clearly needs to find a more constructive outlet for his time)
