I know what my eyes want to see!

Being an avid gamer, I have grown up playing games through out my life. From the time I used to Lead Mario on his adventures to today’s Price of Persia. We all play what we like, and choose to. But not really…

Sex is a natural phenomenon that pretty much every human on the planet enjoys. But alas, mere mention of the word sends shudder down some convention and also hypocritical people’s spine. So you can imagine how these people react when sexual content is shoved into games. I don’t know if most of you remember the Mass Effect incident where the news channels blew the issue way out of proportion and showed their ignorance when the game was compared to pornography.

What most of these hypocrites forget is that this game is made especially for adults. That’s why they come with M rating (which if you don’t know means Mature Rating)

What irritates me the most is these people have to play adults and tell me what’s wrong or right. Who the hell died to make you my parents? Thanks but no thanks. I guess am old enough to decide what is good for my eyes. In that respect I really do admire BioWare for not shying away from this topic (Fuck you Hypocrites!) and inserting it in their latest games, from Mass Effect 2 to Dragon Age. And if you don’t know BioWare is widely known for their characters you can connect with. Nothing in the previous games should be blown out of proportions. But games like rape simulators…really cross the limit.

I don’t know how many of you know about this Japanese game that came out few years back. It was called Rapeplay or some shit like that. Apparently you had to rape the mother and the daughter from the first person’s point of view. I really do not know who is sick in the mind, the developers or the consumer who bought it.

My point is that today’s games are developed far more than killing just few x number of bad guys/zombies/aliens etc. Unless you shy away from sex in your real life, I see no point why one should throw a fit over sexual content in the video games.

How many of you have literally wanted to shoot people on their face? How many of you did not think about killing innocent pedestrians on the streets in the games? I don’t know about you, but for me taking someone’s life is a far more heinous crime than having sex. Think about next time you boo a game for wearing its sexual content proudly on its sleeve. A fact in life you are and offspring and well…humans reproduce sexually. So you get my point right?

I have eyes and I know what I want to see.
