I'm talking about the recent ban of God of War in the UAE. It was banned because of the nudity nothing else. Not the gods, not the violence, just the nudity.

I really got upset when many people started bashing my country in the news section (BTW a huge TOS violation) and so I decided to set things straight

Adult Movies that are shown in our country have censored sections, that were probably nude scenes. We here absolutely do not have any problems with violence (well some still do), but any way, If a scene shows kratos diving into the stomach of his enemy and riping it to shreds and then continues to bath in the blood of his enemy, then there is no problem. BUT, introduce one titi, ONLY ONE FREAKING TITI, even by mistake, then that game is banned.

We still don't have a mechanism to censor games like we do in movies, so they get banned.

We here have a different culture than yours, so I would appreciate it if you didn't start insulting my country or its religion. You can disagree, but no insults please.

Thank you

If you're mad at the News section comments please direct your ranting in their general direction.

The "killing Gods" explanation seemed reasonable enough. Censoring nudity seems much more of a "bashable" reason, IMO.

Theocracies and monarchies are unlikely to garner a lot of sympathy from an open society

I don't see how a pixelated boob is any worse than disemboweling a man... but I'm not a censor so my opinion doesn't matter.

I can just see South Park yuking that up if they haven't already. When a man gets ripped in half and his intestines used as weapons, there is nothing wrong with that. But when a girl is naked, the game must be banned.

sheeprcute

There are no restrictions in our country on other religions. As a matter of fact, in the UAE it is illegal to bash any religion. Disagree and debate with it, yes. Bash it, no.

Passion of the Christ was shown here, but the Borat movie wasn't. and that is all because of the nudity.

I do not think many people, homosexuals and bisexuals included, want to see Snake naked while he looks like a 70 year old.

It'll make the rest of the naked folk look super sexay in retrospect.
