Well, I think you are dealing with a cultural difference there and it wouldn't have made any difference if the moviegoers in Singapore saw the rape or not.
But what I am referring to is the real rape that occurred 5 or 6 years before the movie came out. It was huge news and was only recounted in a very limited fashion in newspapers and television news shows. I remember talking to people about it and how disturbing it was even though we didn't see pictures of it happening or even many details about the actual rape itself. Therefore, I don't believe that people are incapable of understanding the effect that violence and brutality have on others without seeing it.

OK, so where in my progression do you draw the 'prosecution on grounds of obscenity' line? A description? A drawing? A graphic novel? An animated movie? You obviously draw it somewhere before 'video game,' I'm just trying to explore where, and why.

Well, no I don't mean to allude that Singaporeans find rape to be acceptable, no. But I cannot imagine any scenario in which a woman would deserve to be raped so I attributed it, I suppose, to an ignorance of their mores concerning women and modesty.
And I don't know that it is the Japanese deem rape to be okay, obviously they deem simulations of it to be okay and that I disagree with. But like I said, I certainly don't think it should be illegal nor do I have a particular penchant for banning such things. Rather, I wish people wouldn't want to play them. I took exception to what I saw as an attempt to rationalize the presence of these themes in video games as being educational. I do not think they are educational and will refer back to my previous statement that if simulated behaviors like these acted upon people in that manner, then people wouldn't be playing them. And I have a distaste, in general, for the furtherance of the exploitation of cruelty and brutality that has been marching steadily forth since the release of the first Faces of Death videos...I've had this discussion around here before, I think. But I think it is absolutely related...and slowly working its way into the mainstream of entertainment. It bothers me, that's all. I see no good coming of it as I think, paradoxically, it distances people from suffering rather than making them closer to it.

Well, of course, witnessing brutality first hand is a different experience. I'm not saying that. I'm saying that it isn't necessary to witness it to understand it. And it's certainly not necessary to witness it as entertainment.

pornography simulating rape is illegal in my country and I hope it would be in any civilised state.
Anyone committing this crime (viewing this filth) should face the appropriate penalties. If anyone is producing such things in the UK then the book should be thrown at them. Life, and no chance of parole for 10 years, 3 to a cell in a Cat 1 prison.

There are however basic human standards of decency which all civilised nations support and must inforce to protect the innocent of corrupt states.
We intervened in Bosnia to stop innocents being killed, in Rwanda: we didnt stand back and say "well, its a matter for them" - the woman and children of Japan deserve protection. First pressure should be bought upon their government, but if the state utterly fails to protect its own citizens from rape and other dispicable crimes then the state has failed and must be replaced. In fact, I would be shocked if this kind of thing isnt illegal in Japan - I am still fairly sure now that this whole thing is a piece of satire poking fun at the image of games like GTA... it is simply too disgusting to be true.

Well the UK did a crappy job when they had the middle east since well you know those honor killings are still going on.
So while you can take pride in Bosnia and Rwanda, the Crown has done nothing for what it was responsible for when it had it in respect to your women and children protection. Again, this is SIMULATION, there is no human being being hurt here. There isn't even a real human being doing the act.

Apparently my misdirect failed.
I wanted SOMEONE to approach this argument with the knowledge that there is an entire subsection of the game industry that relies on PEOPLE buying games that feature rape. We're not talking about one game, we're talking about a SHITLOAD of games produced every year for the past decade that feature rape (presented as a sexual stimulus) and a market that only encourages more. Everyone's busy weighing how bad rape is, but this is a cultural phenomenon. It doesn't matter how bad it is. A lot of people buy these games. What does this say? Millions of people are fucked up? Or does it say something else...?

but if that was the case, then Japan surely would have high murder and rape rates, yet it doesn't.

If you ask me the whole thing is rather silly, Japanese have many MANY simulation sex, rape, prosititution, pedo, and even bestiality games, why the hell is this one getting so much publicity? I mean it was kinda funny knowing it was sold on Amazon which was a first, but there's so many of them out there and have been out there, now THIS one suddenly got people to open there eyes? It's a game for one, and if parents don't like they it's not like they're being forced to fucking buy it, it's like any other video game out there. Also it doesn't make sense why ebay now won't sell it either, they've sold shit like the countless times before if not WORSE, and either way what does it matter? The news gave it so much publicity that you going to be able to find it just somewhere and now many people are going to buy it JUST because they saw it on the news or since the news brought it up they're curious.
But let's get back to the point that IT'S A GAME, and MANY OTHERS HAVE BEEN MADE BEFORE IT, and whether anal mothers like it or not, more is going to be made and people are going to buy it, hell maybe even there teenage kids. Doesn't mean there going to grow up and rape little kids and big tit women. Just stupid, we have bigger shit to worry about then a game involved anime girls being raped...

The making of such games is an INTERNATIONAL crime
The purchase of such games is an INTERNATIONAL crime The way to resolve this disgraceful situation is to enforce the law

I don't think it's international crime, considering the japanese made it and was originally from there. Selling it to America is possibly YES, but that doesn't make sense either, how come they allow manga (japanese comic books) with rape in them sold in the U.S? Furthermore, how come they are allowed to have games were you can kill hookers and have sex with them in the U.S? Personally I say, let people buy it, just don't make such a fuss about it, it's like anything else, it's just a game, that's it, not a big deal at all. If it involved REAL PEOPLE GETTING RAPE... that's completely different. But there animated people, made with a tablet and japanese perverts, not real blood, sweat, and tears of real women being raped. For the most part people have judgement on what is right and wrong, even playing that game if they do. That's just my opinion.

Do people that play violent video games get tired of being able to easily kill the computer player? They get bored with the game eventually, don't they?
I'm wondering if the same thing would eventually apply to these types of games? Would the rape fetish be a phase that they go through? I used to have a fetish of being with 3 to 5 girls at the same time, but imagining the entire scenerio instead of just the good parts made me get over it. I'm wondering how much realism there is in this game? Would losing at this game make guys realize the negative aspects? Could guys get bored with this since they always win (or always lose)? There are actually quite a few adult games from Japan out there. I never knew they existed until now. |

Psst, Fuffy, yellow is generally reserved for official moderator comments. Just fyi.
Regarding the topic, it's not my place to determine what is or isn't in video games I don't buy. Sure, require parental permission for all games given a specifically serious adult rating, but that's it. If I don't have a right to say that Super Smash Bros. raped my childhood and should have never been made, then no one else has a right to determine that a sexually violent game shouldn't even be available. That said, Amazon has a right to determine what they do or don't sell. It would be wrong to disallow the game from being made, it's okay for suppliers to refuse to sell the game. |

Yes, some people with violent tendencies play violent video games, but it's not why they're violent. Now, if Baraka's figures are accurate, and assuming that Japan is a nation with the highest (or one of the highest) presence of rape in their entertainment media (anime, manga, video games), if we go by your logic, why is Japan so low on that list? Here's why: video games, or books with controversial topics, or rock and roll, will not make your kids worship the devil, poison your pets, set his house on fire or shoot his dad with a gun. And this: "These games are the reason 11 year old kids can find guns and kill adults sleeping in their beds." I see this type of sentence all the time. There's two things wrong with it. One: A videogame will not teach your son how to find a hidden weapon, maybe unlock it, manipulate it, load it, remove the safety, aim it, all the while parents are sleeping right there. And if you notice that I mentioned unlocking, manipulating, loading(for most people), this is called responsible gun ownership. If you have a killing instrument AND children in the house, you need it stored safely, not out where your 11 year old can pick it up and start blazing Matrix style. What's next, lighters in your baby's crib?? The second thing, obviously, is parenting. Don't blame a video game, or TV, or whatever else for teaching your children the wrong things. If you look at games that involve killing, you'll notice an "M for Mature" on the box. Any responsible parent who wants to keep a responsible eye on what their 11 year old plays can look at the ESRB rating before buying it for their child, and keep an eye on their video game library, in case some dumb employee at Gamestop decided it was ok to sell GTA to an 11 yr old. I don't think parents are responsible for everything or should be, but they ARE able to monitor what kind of media their child watches, and if it's appropriate. If they can't, they need to get help.

I don't have a problem with this particular game being bought sold or played, but I do think that it should have an ESRB rating of AO. Since the things that occur in video games are fantasy, rather than reality I don't really see any harm in adults engaging in such games. As to children it's the responsibility of the parents to oversee what their children are allowed to play or download.
It should not be banned for adult use simply because children may attempt to obtain said game or play said game. I don't; however, have a problem with Amazon not carrying the game, as a business decision, but I would strongly oppose any governmental prevention of the sale and distribution of said game to adults. I think that most adults can distinguish fantasy from reality, so I don't think we should be in the business of prohibiting video games, as far as adult use is concerned, based on social noms, or what we find to be offensive. If a person commits an actual crime (I'm thinking in terms of unlawful force, fraud, & theft in all it's forms against another person), then punish them for said crimes committed in accordinance with local/state/federal laws, but don't ban things simply because they're offensive to social norms (absent someone being victimized by such behaviour in and of itself). |

Oh no! Not another video game that features {insert naughty, sinful things here}! Think of the children!
Well, they're not thinking of the children, since this game isn't for them. Over half of the people who play video games are older than 33 years of age. What's the best part about have a target audience that old? They have their own money to buy video games. Kids only get a game on Christmas and Brithdays from their parents. Besides, video games are just form of media, such as tv shows, movies, books, and comics. Should Moi Lolita be banned from book stores and libraries since it's about a grown man lusting after a girl who's a minor? And what about The Tragety of Romeo and Juliet? Juliet was only fourteen when the story starts out. How old was Romeo? Now I'm not throwing our rape game up there with classic lit., that game should be classified with the rest of the rape porn out there. And it's from Japan of all places. They have a myth where the fisherman's wife was raped by sea creatures. Every country and culture handles their smut differently. In Japan, alot of porn is animated, since that form of media is more accepted than live action, according to my otaku friends. And despite Japan's low crime rate, rape porn is very popular. In the US, the crime rate is much higher. Even Michael Moore's documentry, Bowling for Columbine, couldn't find the answer to US' high crime rate. So protecting our children from violent or sexual media isn't the answer to prevent them from commiting violent crimes when they're older. Regarding the rape game mentioned here, it might not even be legal to own or view in the US, since there's a law against fictional depictions of minors in sexual acts. There is no such law in Japan, since their age of consent is lower than 18 years of age. File:Age of Consent.png - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is not just "naughtiness" - it is utter filth, and the interests of nobody are served by its production.
I am not in favour of banning pornography, but this is a pornographic representation of the rape of a child... It is unbelievable to me that this kind of paedophilia (the rape and torture of the "virgin schoolgirl" daughters) is defended as "free expression" or a bit "naughty" by any sane person. If this was sold on amazon then the authorities must go to them with a warrant and take down the details of every pervert who bought it and make sure each one of them does 5 years. Even if we say we cannot prosecute the criminals who made the game because they are protected by Japanese corruption (an argument I do not accept) any citizen of the UK who bought this game should be charged as a child pornographer. I would hope that the American public would adopt the same attitude towards any paedophiles and users of child pornography in the US. It is very important to understand and state again - that as disgusting as this "game" would be if only involving adults, it also encourages the pervert to act out the rape of children.

Wayne,
Yes, paedophilia and child pornography are different to the representation of violence, gun play, murder, etc. A war film in which people are shot is different to disgusting child pornography. Playing the part of a gangster shooting people in GTA is different to playing the part of a child rapist in this revolting "game". I dont personally find that differentation "weird" or see any level of hypocrisy in it. Biznatch, Thats a view that the courts will need to take. It is very clearly in the public interest that the law enforcment agencies of the UK and USA (and any other country in which Amazon sold this game) get a Warrant and go to Amazon and get the names of everyone who bought this game. They should be arrested in very public way and questioned and investigated very strongly, and if there is a case they should answer it in a court of law. I think we also would accept that the kind of person who buys this "game" is far more likely to be involved in other offences in this area than a normal person.

How can someone be arrested for something that there is no law against? You do realize there is no law against it? Or are you advocating the implementation of law on a whim?
I think these games are disgusting, too, but you're not being realistic. At all.

I don't think it can be defined as child pornography, though. Please correct me if I am wrong, but there are not laws against drawn images of child pornography are there?
