geez, think about what we're doing to the next generation of teens.
Warning: rant about moral effects of video games ahead
We've got an extremely popular game out that has some of the wants of the characters including cheating on their spouse? There are already enough misconceptions being spread around about this kind of shit(stuff like it's not cheating if your not in the same state or that kind of crap) without telling the younger teens and preteens that it's ok to cheat so long as your SO is not at home.
The game would be just as good if they had left that out. Or at least just take it one step further and make an 18+ version of the game where there are no blurs and whoo hoo is more than just a fireworks display.
Sorry, just felt an obligation to say something.
And just to clarify, I am all about the first amendment and fully support Maxis's right to produce this game as it is, I just feel I need to state my opinion on the content.
