Pictures from BioWare defends sex

Bioware made headlines years ago when it was revealed there was a sex scene in the sci-fi role-playing game Mass Effect. The company is looking to do it again with their upcoming title Dragon Age: Origins, but this time it’s intentional. Co-founder, Greg Zeschuk, defends his reasoning for including sexual acts in their games, and said it should be reserved for certain titles as a means to better convey the relationships between characters.

I don’t think they need to have them, I think that in certain types of games it makes sense to have them…It’s interesting because I think the Mass Effect thing was completely over-blown. There wasn’t even really nudity; it was like the side of a leg. I think some of the press took huge advantage of the situation. The reality was that it was the kind of stuff you’d see on evening television.

I thought this was what the ratings system was for?  Regardless if it has sex, drugs and alcohol.

The crazy thing about all this is that the “sex” wasn’t really even anything in Mass Effect.
And I agree with Audacious, what’s the point of the rating system if it was used to WARN parents not to let their kids play a certain game, and they played anyway.  I mean how much more clear can they be?
