I don't know if you all have seen the videos, but it's out there, on a well known video game trailer website. Kratos finds two topless women in a pool of water and Kratos (and you, the player) engage in sexual intercourse with the two women. Nothing is shown once this happens, it is all suggested through a stream of water coming out of a statue, we hear a bunch of moaning and grunting. After it ends, health orbs spring out and heal Kratos.

This sort of thing doesn't bother me, but I'm really going to hate hearing the media and the likes of Jack Thompson jump all over it and attack video games. I can just see it now, "Game Rewards Players for Having Sex"

The first God of War dodged the media bullet somehow, but I am not certain it can do it this time with all that has changed.

Nothing will happen, the game has been rated accordingly, and you don't see any "action" (But see a funny scene anyway :P )

If you don't see any actual sex then it's okay. It may be implied but you see no penetration like in a proper 3D sex game. Yes it has nudity, but it's just boobs. Who doesn't like boobs? This would only be a big deal if we saw some hardcore stuff in an M game...

Yeah, but the GTA incident was only major because R* tried to hide it from the public. It's not like Sony is hiding the nudity in GOW. You know what you're going to see when you buy the game now.

I believe R* when they say it was an accident. People dicky about all the time with games before it's finally shipped. It was probably, like they say, a piece of code which accidentally didn't get cleared up.

Not really a good comparison.  The sex mini-game was supposed to flesh out the character of Kratos, and show that he dominates on the battlefield and in the bedroom as well.

It's possible of course. It's just that there is already so much hate from the media against GTA (which is probably another reason the game is so popular) that when they finally find something they can use against it, they'll certainly use it. In any case, Rockstar should have been more careful. They deserve all the profit they got from SA in my view. Fantastic game in every way and its disappointing that they've been sued so much because of one small incident.

There was sex and nudity in GoW 1. If it wasn't an issue then, it will be a nonissue now.

Besides, sex giving you things is true even in real life...Only that we call them babies.

It's funny though, people should be worrying more about those "WMDs in Iraq" than a bit of sex in a game our kids shouldn't be playing anyway. Which is the greater mistake.. ?

I am sure the master chief tears the ladies in half, literally, but we dont need a scene in halo 3 about it...

That is how they do it back in greek.Woman were seen as lesser to man and are use to for pleasure.They don't need to show that in halo because it has noting to do with war.

Of course, but for some reason some people just don't want gamers to be enjoying themselves. It's just so silly that people think just because someone plays GTA they'll turn into a serial killer or something. I mean, it's like saying just because someone watches Saw they'll turn into a serial killer. It's unbelievable what these people come up with to try and ban GTA. I'm just hope R* doesn't care and releases another amazing and controversial GTA.

Homosexuality was also quite common back in Ancient Greece, but we don't see Kratos getting it on with a guy.

Again, not a good comparison.  The setting that God of War takes place in and taking into account the barbaric nature of the main character, the scene would seem more appropriate.  I can't say the same for Halo.

What does doing women on the floor of a cave have to do with being barbaric.  He simply grabs them and just starts pounding away, that doesn't seem barbaric to you?  Also, he can wear an animal "skin".
Also, why are you speaking for Jaffe?  I can say the same for Itagaki, except he realeases his smut as an entire, $60 price game.

Because Kratos is not a caveman...

Maybe you're not too familiar with the meaning of barbaric or just assume it to be something else?

But in anceint greek times this sort of thing was common..... so adding it into the game is kinda staying true to the myths and what not plus the game is rated 18 here in the uk so, there we have it if you aint old enough dont play it.
