Therefore, any specific complaint should not be thrown against developers or gaming in general. We are way too restrictive with game content these days. Why does everyone insist on bashing games for sexual content when there is a rather large and thriving porn industry right here in the US? Yeah, kinda hypocritical. |
My point exactly. The ESRB does a damn good job deciding who a game is geared towards so to censor a game that's rated M is just mind boggling. Of course some games get censored just to avoid the dreaded M rating but that's just a cop out. I think developers should stick to their creative visions to the very end.
Take Xenosaga 3 for example. The sensoring in that game is so bad some scenes are completely incoherent.
