Believe it or not these exist. It makes it seem disheartening when this sort of stuff is discovered.
I'm goinbg to show you 2 articles and thern have a small discussion ( RANT)
I was sent this article first: ( clink on the link to read more)
A game that involves the player stalking victims and then raping them in a virtual world is being offered for sale by online retailer Amazon.com, the Belfast Telegraph's website can reveal.
The shocking 'rape simulator', Rapelay, is set in Japan and carries a sickening game description on the Amazon website. An MP said last night that he plans to raise the issue in Parliament.
Reviews by gaming websites have expressed horror at the basis for the game.
I had trouble accepting this so did a search and this is what I found
( read here for more) Withdrawn from sale:
Amazon.com has stopped selling RapeLay, in which players have to stalk and rape a family of women
In Rapelay, gamers direct a character to sexually assault a mother and her two young daughters at an underground station, before raping any of a selection female characters.
The game was intended for release just in Japan, but was on offer to British buyers through Amazon Marketplace, the section of the online store's website open to third-party sellers.
But Amazon has now withdrawn the game after complaints from users, deeming it to be inappropriate. "We determined that we did not want to be selling this particular item," a spokeswoman said.
I can hardley believe that Amazon had to wait for people to complain before they stopped the sale of this game. For that matter I can hardley comprehend that anybody MADE this game. Here we are trying to help young people see the positive in relationships, to develop love and compassion for all people and this sort of crap keeps appearing. We are told that many things are impossible to control on the web. What a bunch of bollocks. Amazon stopped advertising this game, many countries block particular websites, our govt computer systems block us from facebook and bebo and and and.... Lets get real. No more excuses. Lets decide what is okay and what isnt. Be vocal; be part of the decision

I can "hardley" believe you exist
ReplyDeleteyou want to know why they waited till some ass like you brought it up, it makes good money, its a game get over it, its ok, i see nothing wrong with a game like that, as long as it stays in game.
ReplyDeleteInteresting that 'making good money' is considered ok. War make good money - does that make it okay? Perhaps you should look at research that indicates games that include violence
ReplyDelete" Does not stay in the game"
Is this game okay for 12 year olds, 18 year olds, 80 year olds. Because all of these groups have seen this game and made comments.
You might be able to play it and not carry the violence over towards women - But do you think Everybody can do this?
u still living, go die
ReplyDeleteInteresting that you also use violence in your response. Thank you for making the link so easy for all to see.
