Mass Effect is porn according to Fox News.

Fox News Link

One of the many articles about it.

Seriously, this is the reason i only see the news at 6 o clock, i dont watch any mainstream stuff at all, plus theres no Fox here 24/7 luckily either.

Still, they brand Mass Effect as pornographic, cmown, how embarassing is that? Have those people never looked around? What about GTA with its hot coffee mod, and The Witcher for example.

This is just rubbish, and im glad their being bashed for it, im not against everything, but exaggarating is also an art.

Yeah, totally right.

Just though i'd share it around a bit, i think its hilarious to see just how oblivios some people are.

Yeah, she totally denies that females just aswell can play games, i think she's pro-female and anti-male, i guess she got treated bad during high school or something.

Right there that is SHOWING RIGHT THERE that fox or anyone for that matter can't complain about the sexual or violence or anything about the game it has a freaking label already telling parents that if they buy this game they might be exposing their kids to these kinds of things. they have their right to their opinion about gaming but they should not be allowed to go all anti-male on the guys saying we don't no the difference between real life and a game.

that must be the stupidst thing iv seen since jessica simpson is this chicken or fish?

i mean they must be so retarded, a 13 year old is probably smarter then them. i just loled at the guy with glasses saying he bought his daughter a video game only to be confused on how to play it.

i mean boys are curious if there curious... cuz tell me if im wrong... you do need to be 18 to buy M rated guys right? so its the parents fault they bought some stupid 30sec strip tease for there 8 year old. well at least hel kno if he gets a boner for the first time lol

RE: Mass Effect is porn according to Fox News.

after watching this, im convinced that "panel" is a synonym for "group of prude @$$holes who have nothing better to do than b*tch about video games when the last time they touched a controller was to play pong." seriously. that half of the video was a total joke. there was no debate, just a group of stereotypical pricks opposed to anything more than hearts and rainbows in video games. the part that really cracked me up was the black lady talking about kids coming home and playing their fathers' video games. imagine these dads never bought mass effect, or any other game including sexual content. how difficult is it for those same kids to turn on their PC, open google, and type "porn". and even assume they have a content blocker. what are the odds they havent discovered the magic of proxy servers from their friends? getting so worked up about a little bit of alien side boob is totally pointless. let the kids be happy with that, be thankful they arent at 2girls1cup.com

tyran

RE: Mass Effect is porn according to Fox News.

The part that made me laugh was when they said they havent played the game "they watched the trailers". Its like saying computers are dumb stupid and pointless because it froze up once in its 10 year life span. You have to look at the whole game.

If you're old enough to buy/play mass effect, aren't you old enough for porn anyway? Or at least old enough to go on the uncensored internet?

The woman in the video is retarted, the game is rated M, so people know that it is for mature audiences.

Quit bashing us, quit messing with our lives, and go back to working for the media, and being old farts.

RE: Mass Effect is porn according to Fox News.

this is why i dont watch any of the media outlets. they are all run by people who insert scandal and remove common sense from every story they run. this story runs deeper then just the porn, it is just another story in the crusade agaisnt video games in general. time to get back to my games and not pay attention to this.

I only wish it was as simple as that
I personally am sick and tired of the "I'm too busy to raise my children, so thewill be teaching my kids instead, and if they do a bad job, I'll get Jack Thompson to sue you" whining that is filling the airwaves these days.

if more parents would just take one day a month to see what their children are doing, the world would be a saner place

Right, but that's not the issue, Fox was saying there were full frontal nudity scenes in the game, which is utter crap.

They're worried about visual here, because well sexual themes are EVERYWHERE (not kidding).

My favorite part: Have u ever played mass effect.....No

She has VERY little right to say anything against it if she hasnt played it. Its like a person who's never had pie saying its to sweet. Also the boys not being able to tell real life and games, I want to smack u across the face. What she just said: 1-20 males, will copy games, what the study is most likely: 3-7 year old boys will copy wat they see. saying undetailed terms is like saying 2+2= a number. plus little kids dont even know how to set up a xbox 360, take two minutes out of your day. Unplug and put Mass effect high on the shelf. YOUR WORRIED, SO YOU CAN DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT!

RE: Mass Effect is porn according to Fox News.

Another thing I want to bring up, when did sex become a bigger topic then violence. Like Assassin's creed managed to avoid this, yet u can randomly walk up to a random person and put in a knife in their stomach, but 30 seconds of a side boob gets this. I understand sex is only for mature people, but its a natural thing of life. Yet a little kid is playing Super smash bros where u hit each other with swords, or throw someone in magma. I personally believe sex ed should be taught very early, although im sure most will disagree(i think i know the reason, but lets not start a religion war too). And this constant stereotype of omg a boy has seen nudity hes gunna treat women like objects, not true. Do you guys think gangs are at home going ALL RIGHT MASS EFFECT, and they often lead our stereotypes. I'm getting tired of my gender getting in the way of how i live, and i see these two sexist *kittens* broadcast this *kitten* saying how were terrible. HOW DARE THEY!!!
