Are you guys surprised? We already have games that let you chop innocent people's heads off in the streets, and allow you to run over cops like nothing.

I'm just being honest. People here are talking about how horrible a game that lets you perform unwanted sex on women is, yet they are also discussing this very matter on a video game site that basks in games like Grand Theft Auto. A game which allows you to keep track of how many innocent civillians you kill for no reason other than your own entertainment...

This is disgusting, but it might help to keep those who are thinking of rape from actually committing the crime. I would like to point out that Japan has the largest porn industry in the world, and the lowest rates of murders and rapes. It's gotta help in some way.

Tokugawa77
Yes! Lets face it we(as humans) have no idea how the mind works. You have a better chance to get struck by lightning than you do to get rapped in Japan. However America with very strict porn/rape/child porn laws have 30 times more rape. Also the ideals about sex are very different. In America the average teen has had sex by 16. In Japan if a girl has lost her virginity before 20 she is considered useless and tainted. Most Japanese are still virgins by 25 and here in America that same 25 year old virgin is either considered a "religious nut" or a pasty nerd. Maybe the key to keeping rape instincts at bay is this stuff? Who knows...

It's only sold in Japan, and the only way people are going to get it in North America are online, and kids won't accidentally find one in a convenience store. In fact, I don't think a lot of people even knows about those games until CNN broke out the news. Thanks CNN, for arousing the curiosity of lonely teenage males and possibly leading them to do research on eroge games.

This reminds me of that episode of ATHF with the genetically engineered dog that was modified from Master Shake's hand called Hand Banana that loved to rape Carl.

Well, tell me how you feel about GTA or War games? How is it I could kill a man in cold blood and on-one is cursing off humanity but God forbid we flash a boob.... What country do you live in? I bet Japan has far less rape incidents than your country does. Ever wonder why? If playing this game will stop little sally sue from being rapped than I say free copies for everyone.

This is the real word, there is no happy endings. The only choice we have is the lesser evil and playing a perverted game(about rape) is far less than actual rape.

The mere sight of boobs can blind someone for life. Why would we let our children be subjected to that!? :x:P I agree. People just love to have double standards.

Objectively speaking, is this really worse than games like Manhunt?

Well, there is no rape in Manhunt, as far as I know. Rape is a lot more sensitive here in the states.

and killing people is so much better then rape. this is why i hate the media, lets blow everything up to make people think its news. if people want to live out their rape fantasies in a game, good for them because they are not doing it in real life. just like any shooter, fighter, racing, or just about any other game who's mechanics would be socially unacceptable. then again this is the same media who tells us a net loss in jobs per month is growth and rebounding. its all the same bullcrap used to elevate the gov and show you why you want and need more regulation.

i find it disgusting that video games likes these show rape as entertaining. i wasnt comparing it to gta and 2 wrongs dont make a right. and how exactly will this reduce rape? it shows how fun, cool and easy it is to do.

Well it's a good thing these games aren't available in the states, then.

Who the hell are we to impose our Western Civilization ideals and morals on other parts of the world. As posted many times throughout this thread, the statistics for rape in America and Japan are staggeringly contrasting. Obviously Japan is doing *something* right.

it's ok as .long as it doesn't happen in real life. when people say a game is violent or there is a new rule, everyone on gamespot disagree with the criticsm.

I wonder how CNN feels about TENTACLE rape... :?

supa_badman
its all part of the republican plot to submerge all of the land by melting the ice caps with global warming and then breading a new race of octomen who would be more fit for space travel. the hentai is just to desensitize the masses to make the transition easier. talk radio on the other hand sees it as a means for the left to degenerate the population to the point where we live in a judge dread meets escape from LA world, where if it does not come from the gov you aint getting it.

You missed my point. I'm saying if you don't have a problem with shooting some innocent guys head off in a game then you should care about rape. I'm not a brain doctor, but it doesn't take a scientist to put the facts together.

Your country doesn't allow rape games, Japan does. Your country has (maybe) 10-40 times more rape than Japan does. You see a pattern? There are games(ninja gaiden) where you can cut off limbs and leave people to die slow brutal deaths. However, sex is what gets our news attention? If you seriously see nothing wrong with that then you've just been brain washed by the media.

We don't know how the human mind works maybe being exposed to this stuff takes about an instinct to rape. There's no proof than anyone ever played one of these games and decided to go rape someone.

If you're going to get outraged at [badly made] games depicting rape; why aren't you outraged at games depicting (and in heavily graphic detail at times) murder and killing in general?

It doesn't really add up at all. Why is sex considered Satan incarnate yet violence and killing is considered just dandy by comparison?

Although my sarcasm meter is going off the charts from your message, I dare to say yes! That is exactly what I'm getting at. This, along with many other factors dealing western views about sex is why they rape 30 times less than America. Did you miss the part where I covered they views on teen sex? Its easy to take a piece and make it look stupid, but take all the facts then tell me its foolish.

I can't honestly tell you why. But I can tell you it will never go mainstream. Imagine talking to your friends.

I highly doubt that a video game will stop rape. We have GTA here why isn't there a lowering in crime rate? It has to do more with the culture itself I don't think a video game is going to stop anything. Could it possibly be also that there is a higher number of rapes in the US because women here are encouraged to report it. In Japan it might be a bit different plus the U.S. is way more populated.

to jeremiah06- there are stories about teenagers that were inspired by gta to steal cars, the same thing could happen here. i didnt know that rape in japan is much less common than in america, but i doubt these rape games are that common there (or are they?) making them the main reason that rape is less common. and the idea of "u know what would be fun? raping a woman and psychologically scaring her for life so i can have fun for 15 minutes, lets turn it into a video game" disgusts me. they developed this game for entertainment not to stop rape and that thought sickens me, even if it does have a positive side affect, that wasnt thier original intention

Good Point

Not really America has 30 times more rape than Japan and only 2.4(ruff) times more people. SO, if you adjust for the difference America still has over 25 times the rape with equal populations.

The problem with the "GTA made me do it" claim is that in all likely hood, the kids who claim that GTA inspired them were trying to pin the blame away from their own conscious actions, as well as their likely mental problems. Case in point, I've been playing GTA games since I was 6, and I'm sure many others have, but have yet to commit acts of (extreme) violence against others.

Beyond that there isn't any actual data that shows there is link between video game playing and actually committing acts of violence due to it.

What does intent have to do with results? Those rape games are more common in Japan than GAMES are here period. You can find them in any random store while here games in general aren't that common. You are still missing my point. It's OK to find this disgusting, but don't be a hypocrite about it. GTA is far more "disgusting" than that one rape game(you can buy a hooker then kill her to get your money back). Rape is 30 times more likely in America and we only out number them by 2.4 times so its not our size that makes the difference.

I highly doubt that a video game will stop rape. We have GTA here why isn't there a lowering in crime rate? It has to do more with the culture itself I don't think a video game is going to stop anything. Could it possibly be also that there is a higher number of rapes in the US because women here are encouraged to report it. In Japan it might be a bit different plus the U.S. is way more populated.

Good Point

Not really America has 30 times more rape than Japan and only 2.4(ruff) times more people. SO, if you adjust for the difference America still has over 25 times the rape with equal populations.

That's still just a guesstimated number of rape though. Honestly rape victims in America are encouraged to come forward and the majority of people will feel sorry for the victim. But in Japan the culture is different if a women comes forward she might be frown upon and looked as dirty. Rape is just an iffy statistic to look at there so many different variants to it. What if the girl was lying about the rape etc.. it would still be put into the data. But saying a video game will help prevent rape is just flat out ridiculous. And I'm sure the makers weren't like "Yea lets make a rape game so these guys won't go rape girls."

[QUOTE="Michelle4003"]to jeremiah06- there are stories about teenagers that were inspired by gta to steal cars, the same thing could happen here. i didnt know that rape in japan is much less common than in america, but i doubt these rape games are that common there (or are they?) making them the main reason that rape is less common. and the idea of "u know what would be fun? raping a woman and psychologically scaring her for life so i can have fun for 15 minutes, lets turn it into a video game" disgusts me. they developed this game for entertainment not to stop rape and that thought sickens me, even if it does have a positive side affect, that wasnt thier original intentionjeremiah06
What does intent have to do with results? Those rape games are more common in Japan than GAMES are here period. You can find them in any random store while here games in general aren't that common. You are still missing my point. It's OK to find this disgusting, but don't be a hypocrite about it. GTA is far more "disgusting" than that one rape game(you can buy a hooker then kill her to get your money back). Rape is 30 times more likely in America and we only out number them by 2.4 times so its not our size that makes the difference.

This was my point as well. I'm sure the very same people disgusted by the rape game, have played a game like GTA before, and have also killed innocents for no apparent reason in it. If you find a game like GTA more tame than this rape game, there is something wrong with you.

Sure its easy to dismiss the data. If you don't follow the available data then how can we discuss? How can we be sure anyone has ever been raped at all?

How is it ridiculous? Think about it real hard . How much do you know about the human brain and how it works? With our level of knowledge its ridiculous to dismiss anything just because it doesn't sound practical. The personal computer don't sound practical. I can promise you this games wasn't intended to help anyone stop rape, but I can tell you the effects of this game with their views have worked.

Edit: Also that's a very cynical view you have there. You are implying than any country without a huge rape percentage must not be reporting them. That is borderline ignorant. Why not try to understand my point instead dodging it with such a dismissive attitude?

Japanese women are discouraged from reporting sex crimes against them because it will bring shame to there whole family and all of society will hate them. Also lets just be honest, Japenese dudes are not known for have as big of "parts" as American men. People who rape ppl do it because they want to inflict pain, not for sexual gratification. You can't accomplish that goal if she can't even feel it. BTW im not insulting anyone, I'm just stating some physiological and psychological reasons I think are behind it. Also ive heard that the mass amount of horomones pumped into our processed foods Americans eat spike up our sex drive thru the roof.

to jeremiah06- it was the intent that i called disgusting. and dont call me a hypocrite im not denying your facts. rape being less common in japan is a fact, video games being the reason for that isnt a fact, its possible it has an effect but not necessarily and it could just as easily be encouraging rape. also, japanese women are less likely to admit being rape so the difference might not be as big as you think.
