Protests by US rights campaigners against the game "RapeLay" have been shrugged off by the game's developers.
RapeLay is a Japanese videogame that allows the player to simulate sexual violence against virtual females.
The game hit the news in February when Amazon.com removed it from sale on their website.
But Illusion, the makers of RapeLay, have shrugged off a protest campaign, saying that they are "bewildered" by it. "We make the games for the domestic market and abide by laws here," said a spokesperson. "We cannot possibly comment on (the campaign) because we don't sell them overseas."
Censorship – it’s a hot button issue in the video game world right now. When developers alter their vision to better suit the needs of the market, some gamers treat it like a knife to their heart. But the alternative might just be worse. All around the world, video games have been pulled from store shelves because they were just too much for the community to handle.
The Man Hunt 2 banning was utter trash. Scummy tabloid papers jumping on the nearest thing that would sell papers
"What kind of country would see fit to ban something as innocuous as The Pokemon Trading Card Game? Welcome to Saudi Arabia, folks. The heavily Muslim Middle Eastern nation issued an edict in 2001 banning both the electronic and physical versions of the game from import. Pikachu, the beloved electric Pokemon and his fellow pocket monsters were considered a threat to national security."

Why does this stuff get approved on N4G? Hmmmmmm... Probably because there are too many horny nerds on this site that like to masturbate to this shit!
These are the site top choices when it comes to the worst simulation games. Let the site know yours in the comments section below!
I was amazed that 64% of women in their 20s and 30s had been molested on public transport in Tokyo. That is nuts.
I'd actually like to see a review of this game just to see if it's actually good....gameplay wise.
Glad to see this has been pulled off shelves in Japan, now.
