Anybody played this mod?

[The Mask]

nah but i've seen a video of it in action, looks pretty funny

[M. Banana]

There is no doubting the fact that the widespread availability of sexually explicit and graphically violent video games makes the challenge of parenting much harder

"bollocks"

Got a link son, for educational purposes?

[TheNamelessOne]

Yes, because last time I checked, games are all for kids.

On a slightly off topic note, anyone look at the headline and for a brief second get the completely wrong idea?

[The Mackem]

She's a sex fiend.

[Cool King]

Got a link son, for educational purposes?

I have a link.

I saw them show this on TV the other day on Attack of the Show...it was pretty funny because they were covering it up with a shirt while playing the noise for everyone to hear....

[Disturbed316]

lol so much better seeing it in action rather than reading about it. Aparently someone has done an action replay code for it so people with the PS2 version can play it too.

[Oxstar]

How does Carl Johnson do it with out getting his nob out?

"Concerns about minors"

:EXTREMEROLL:

If the kids don't download the mod... HEY NO FUCKING SEX SCENES!

[Hired Hitman]

Hilary Clinton is trying WAY too hard to get on the goody goody family voters good list.

100% of that is bullshit that didn't need to be brought forward, Who put the scenes in the game.. oh I don't know, THE GAMEMAKERS? why was it sold at an M rating and not an AO rating? oh hell, wild guess... BECAUSE THE SEX SCENES WERE CUT FROM THE GAME... a 3rd party made a MOD to UNLOCK the scenes, it's not like the Game Makers released a fucking patch. The makers were either told close to realease date to cut the sex from the game, or they were lazy and kept it on the disc. WHO CARES? there is no way for a kid to view the sex scenes unless they download the patch, install it and actually figure out that dating is possible in the game... then to go to the girls house..... figure out what to do on a date... take her back home.. THEN see the mod work, I'm willing to bet most kids that play it spend most of their time shooting guns at things, blowing cars or people up, knifing people from behind... I am so sick of Anti-GTA video game haters bitching about things that aren't worth the attention.

[Penner]

LOL hahahahah

[Silent]

I just saw it on AOTS like 10 mins ago, pretty damn funny.

Last I checked, Rockstar was claiming otherwise.

Anyway, the funniest thing I've dealt with on this subject is a couple of people who have decided to call this the "most controversial" thing to hit GTA. Because let's let's face face it...GTA waws never controversial. God Favors Amish has always been a mission based simulation of the simple life.

[darkpower]

Like I said...

These people could be worrying about some REAL issues other than fucking with GTA, like trying to fix the mess in Iraq.

[Savio]

it probably reminds hillary of 1997...or was it 98?

[The Mackem]

I see it's raging on

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/technology/4717139.stm

"It appears that the publisher has blatantly circumvented the rules in order to peddle sexually explicit material to our youth, and they should be held accountable. A company cannot be allowed to profit from deceit."

I honestly don't know where to begin with that. Surely the sentence should read:

"It appears that the publisher has blatantly circumvented the rules and cannot be allowed to profit from deceit."

I don't see how the rest is as relevant.

[TheNamelessOne]

Alright, I was going to start a new topic, but it seems to fit in this one just fine.

This just in - Paedophiles practice on The Sims 2.

http://www.gamespot.com/news/2005/07/22/news_6129609.html

How do you like your hot coffee? If you're Jack Thompson, you like it scalding game publisher's laps. The Miami attorney and antigaming activist has done his share to see that games don't fall into the wrong hands. And lately, those hands have belonged to almost everyone.

Thompson was among those who spearheaded the recent effort to slap an "Adults Only" rating on Rockstar Games' Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, and he's often been on the forefront of many other gaming issues, several of which have targeted the crime-spree-based GTA franchise. In the past, he's represented defendants who have been the victims of GTA-inspired crimes, including the triple homicide of three police officers by an 18-year-old boy in Alabama.

His beef with San Andreas? Unused code in the game that depicts sexual acts. These minigames can be unlocked by using game-cheat devices or patches available on the Internet.

Thompson is on a roll...and he's not done yet. His latest goat is a game that doesn't involve guns, carjacking, or prostitutes: He's going after Electronic Arts' The Sims 2.

In a manifesto sent today to press outlets, Thompson focuses on dismantling the Entertainment Software Ratings Board and exposing what he calls the industry's "latest dirty little secret." The secret's out now, and it involves nude sims.

In the statement, Thompson says, "Sims 2, the latest version of the Sims video game franchise ... contains, according to video game news sites, full frontal nudity, including nipples, penises, labia, and pubic hair."

The Sims 2 is a "life simulator." In the game, players steer their digital beings around their cyberlives. Actions include everything from the spectacular (getting married, having children, receiving promotions at work) to the mundane (cooking microwaved meals, going to the bathroom, mopping the floor). Such activities, as in real life, sometimes require nudity. EA circumvents inappropriateness by "blurring" out the nether regions, almost to a comical sense.

Knowing that the game is popular among all ages, EA has even taken steps to ensure that Sims fans aren't exposed to indecent depictions. In the recent expansion pack, The Sims 2 University, gamers can send their teenage sims off to college. However, instead of packing the expansion with "keggers" and "reefer," EA chose to use juice and bubble blowers.

Thompson doesn't seem to care. He cites a cheat code that can remove the blur that covers the nether regions. "The nudity placed there by the publisher/maker, Electronic Arts, is accessed by the use of a simple code that removes what is called 'the blur' which obscures the genital areas. In other words, the game was released to the public by the manufacturer knowing that the full frontal nudity was resident on the game and would be accessed by use of a simple code widely provided on the Internet."

It's not just the adults that are liberated from their wardrobes. Sims kids can also be nudified, "much to the delight, one can be sure, of pedophiles around the globe who can rehearse, in virtual reality, for their abuse."

Were this to be true, Thompson would have his smoking gun, and EA would be forced to recall all copies of The Sims 2. However, it's what's under the blur that Thompson's after. And what happens when the blur is lifted? A simple mannequin-esque smooth body, according to EA.

Jeff Brown, vice president of corporate communications at EA, in response to the accusations, told GameSpot, "This is nonsense. We've reviewed 100 percent of the content. There is no content inappropriate for a teen audience. Players never see a nude sim. If someone with an extreme amount of expertise and time were to remove the pixels, they would see that the sims have no genitals. They appear like Ken and Barbie."

Thompson doesn't buy it. "The sex and the nudity are in the game. That's the point. The blur is an admission that even the 'Ken and Barbie' features should not be displayed. The blur can be disarmed. This is no different than what is in San Andreas, although worse."

[UPDATE] Thompson this afternoon updated his earlier statement, saying he is aware certain mods only remove "the blur," but adds that "Electronic Arts has done nothing about this." Thompson's new conclusion: EA is "cooperating, gleefully, with the mod community to turn Sims 2 into a porn offering."

The last time we checked, The Sims 2 was rated T for Teen by the ESRB, which means that anyone 13 years of age, with $50 to spend, can purchase the game.
Holy doesn't really make sense Batman

[The Mackem]

OMG somebody shoot this idiot please, most likely this twat is going to ban most games because can't you change just about anything with the right know how?

[toxic rooster]

Surely though, if you are able with the right code to remove a 'blur' you can put nipples on characters etc yourself

[Just John]

No Hairy ball bags = no sex

[RoXer]

OMG somebody shoot this idiot please

[Savio]

This is no different than what is in San Andreas, although worse Uhhh wow not even close SA does so much more.

Scene from SA:

CJ: Can I turn this R&B music off?....I want to hear you breathe

Girl: Ok......don't you want to take your pants off?

CJ: I like to just stick it through the hole.

[Hired Hitman]

If I ever meet Jack Thompson, I'll beat the living shit out of him.

[Kapoutman]

Come on now. With my programming college degree and too much free time, I could put a vagina on Barney the Dinosaur in his "Fun with Numbers" game. Jack Thompson is ridiculously stupid.

[Vastardikai]

Jack Thompson needs to get laid...

[Savio]

He could as CJ if he played GTA:SA

[Vastardikai]

No, I mean, go out, meet a woman (or guy, or child, or farm animal, whichever he prefers), Take them home (or to the backseat of his car, or an elevator, or the altar of a church, whichever he prefers), and have REAL sex with that individual.

If he has that much time to worry about whether a blur on the Sims 2 can be removed and replaced with genitals, he must be really up tight about sex, or just bitter about not getting any and doesn't want anyone else to have it, either.

Sigmund Freud would be proud, I think...

[Hired Hitman]

I know what you mean.

AND TO THINK HE HANGS AROUND WITH KIDS ON HIS SHOW!

BAN BARNEY!
