correct me if im wrong but in japan they sell porn games that would be considered AO.. at least for ps2.. are they not licensed or something?.. just a thouight

Are you are talking about the AO formerly PC porn game going onto PS2? If that's what you mean, the porn contents on these game have been removed when they get ported onto PS2, and all such game ported are usually dating sims which have little to no porn to begin with.


Also, they are usually visual novels. (so pretty much all you do is reading, looking at the pretty graphic... well, character, and sometime making choices) But, none of them is really making their ways here. (Which is a shame because many of my favorite non-hentai anime are adapted from these ero pc games that makes their way to ps2 but without the ero content.) I don't imagine any gamers in the NA region that would like to play game in which all you do is read (but the story is really good), so it would be safe to assume titles like those won't make their way here anytime soon.

They are also one of my pathetic reasons in wanting to learn Japanese, although that's off topic and beside the point.

I don't hate or despise Gballzack. I don't hate or despise anyone here, though that does not mean I don't aspire to.

 Why cause people don't think as narrowly and stupidly as you? Cause they don't think in game violence is such a big deal? Cause you know America will never recover from a Manhunt AO release... 


 Hey, idiot, that was not an attack on Gballzack.  I don't know how I ended up with a warning for attacking Gballzack when I specifically said I don't hate or despise Gballzack, contrary to the accusations made by totalwar23.  My original reference about Gballzack was about the discussion Gballzack and I had recently 
about Sony versus porn on Blu-Ray.  Gballzack just about likened Sony to the Gestapo, while another poster actually did just that.  Well, it turned out Nintendo is into the censoring game as well, and, big surprise, no 
attack on Nintendo and likening them to Heinrich Himmler.  I am really ticked off about this warning crap and the false accusations, and I don't care if I get banned for trying to clear my name.  In fact, cya.  People have sigs about Gballzack, yet I get bullshit from a Nintendo-loving mod for the innocuous comment I wrote?  
Eff that, man.  I can waste my time in other ways than here.

I made no accusation about anything-merely stating in general that people should stop posting about how someone else (probably someone you dislike because of their opinions) is going to come in and start something. It's unnecesary and it ends up with something like this. If you felt that way, then explain your opinion but don't be making some snide comment.

Anyway....

I'm not exactly big on the idea of porno video games or game so violent they need adult raitings, but the fact the entire principal of a "AO" raited game is taboo in the states is just somewhat frustrating. As a staunch advocate against censorship I can't really say I'm fond of being denied the right to anything even if the issue is somewhat trivial or moot. Is it really so bad to have those sort of games here? Just a thought.



 

problem solved.

As a follow up: "Take-Two decides to delay release of Manhunt 2", as I guess was to be expected.

Never has anyone allowed an Ao rating (why not just call it A? What's with the fucking "o" at the end? And what's with eC? What's with the fucking "e" at the beginning? Assholes need to learn how to fully simplify their abbreviations) to ever exist as a video game, so why should Manhunt 2 be the first? And why didn't the original poster mention that Microsoft wouldn't allow it either? Nobody would allow it. Only PC allows it, and PC is not a video game console, it's a "personal computer," hence the abbreviation, "P.C."

Thank you, and good night.



Didn't Rockstar originally brag about that they intended Manhunt 2 to receive an AO rating? I'm quite sure they did, heh be careful what you wish for I guess
