You mean games like Sociolotron? That was one game that deserved to be banned.

[Cygnus X-1 14]

Never heard of it.

Soiolotron is, or was, a MMORPG style game, and a crude one at that, where you could take on the seedier characters such as prostitutes and pimps and basically allow you to live out your dark fantasies. As well as having explicit sex scenes, the big draw card the developers went on about is being able to rape other characters, and they talked about having realistic rape physics and modelling. I know, sick. To drive the game even more into the ground, the characters were supposed to have urges where a male character would be taken over by his urges to rape a woman, and said woman is caught up in a frenzy because she has fantasies about being raped. Now that is just dangerous, more so than even the worst portrayals of violence in media whipped games such as Doom or Mortal Kombat. Having rape modelling and making it the selling point of the game would be the lowest of the low acts that had been performed if the same game did not say that women wanted to be raped. Even the Gurrila Gamer, who is at best an immoral blogger who works for PC Powerplay, reamed the game a new asshole, and deserveably so.

Holy ****. :shock: Who in all the seven pits of the nine hells would a game like that?!?

[Luk3us 63]

Sounds a pretty nasty game, also a game I've never heard about. Which I find weird. :?

[Cygnus X-1 14]

Come to think of it, I know noone whos heard of this game.

 

Hey, luk3us, youre almost at 2000. Thats a lot of typing. :wink:

www.sociolotron.com is where you can find out more, if the site is still up, and I might write up that Gurrila Gamer editorial if you want me to.

[Luk3us 63]

Is the PC Powerplay the UK or Aussie Version?

[General Leang 0]

Uh, good question. When I find the magazine the article is in I can tell you.

[Cygnus X-1 14]

No thanks, I'll skip the article on this game.

 

I wonder if the programers of it have a conscience.

[Luk3us 63]

Hmm after reading what they had on their site the game doesn't sound as bad....

 

But then I don't suppose they're going to list all the "bad" qualities of the game on their website huh.

[General Leang 0]

Okay, here it is.

 

No, seriously, even if the guy tears the game and the developers a new one, the less said about it the better. But it may interest you that there were big problems with the people playtesting the game. It you want to you can read about it at http://www.alphavilleherald.com/archives/000316.html

Hmmm sounds like the develop team are a bunch of assholes.

 

Though I find it a bit strange that you could do anything "disturbing" in a game like that. I mean what did these people do? Not have sex? Go to church? hahahahahah...

[Cygnus X-1 14]

Obviously they had problems if they wanted to test a game such as that.
