Well should people upload this content it'll be removed from PSN -- and their account will probably get a warning. Im willing to bet when the game is released their will be a lot of adult content -- and those responsible will be banned leading to adult content becoming rarer and only used for porn suicides.

One of the best headliness..

For startes banning consoles permanetly is a can of worms. The issues start when people resell a console and a userr ends up with a system that can't access PSN, one of the systems major features. It will result in resellers like gamestop having to deal with angry customers and Sony getting complains.

But its pretty funny how they talk about they're banning system. You'll "have to move to another house" is just flat out laughable. He is basically saying that a big part of how they ban machines is based off of IP address, and its likely what they would do before a machine ban. Changing your IP address is, in most cases, trivial. Even when its not you can just run through a proxy.

And getting around the banned system ID shouldn't be to hard either since the PSN makes a call for the PS3 to send its ID#. All you'd have to do is a bit of packet sniffing, figure out which packet from the PS3 is the ID number, block it and in its place send a fake packet with a non-banned ID number. Thats really not to difficult if you have experience with this sort of thing, and someone down the line will make a simple guide/program so any 12 year old can do it.

Games with graphically interesting backgrounds have been around for eons -- especially in PC form.

Adult-oriented games with AO content date back to the Atari 2600 era (yes -- 8 bit porn).

Given the PR about "Sporn" creatures -- it is probably good that Sony has some sort of review process before public posting ... so it can avoid the same type of issues. We know that some gamers will have the wrabbles to do something like this ... or worse want to show us that they have the wrabbles literally.

Will the moderators be strict on everything though?

For example, will my planned anti-microsoft propaganda be allowed?

oh i am thinking of that as well

I wonder what the limits of censorship will be. For example if I make devil worshipping sackboys, would that be censored? Or if I made George Bush bashing sackboys? Or gay sackboys that depict no sex.

Microsft ban 360s from Live, and Sony banned PS2s from their servers, so the can of worms has already been opened. The second hand market is really none of Sony's concern. Resellers will just have to check it works online whilst checking that the rest of it works. Surely they do this with 360 already.

Sure, you could use a proxy to circumvent the IP address, there would be no need to literally move house.

With PS2 it's possible to change the machine ID, but PS3 security is far more sophisticated so this isn't possible yet, and probably won't be for a very long time.
Considering how secure they made the rest of the system it seems unlikely that the machine ID would be sent out unencrypted, it's a key part of the PS3's security. I really don't think your packet sniffing technique would work.

Fear not, your favourite politicians will step in to protect the children.

How on earth will they be able to moderate the content fully? No way that they can look at all the levels people are creating. They would have to watch/ go through the entire level. I could make a level filled with flowers, then the very last bit of it have a girl doing a donkey.
