Well, it's not fair to call it a controversy. Any rational, intelligent being (wait, do Fox News viewers classify as rational or intelligent ... hmm) can tell that neither the expert or the review had played the game. Not to mention the tame sex scene has been on U tube a week before the games actual release. Hell, it was worth the trouble just to see Fox News slammed when their "expert" admitted to not actually researching the game before the show. But, forget all of that. Just watch this and laugh your a$$ off":

I seen this and this is so dumb. Not your thread kind sir. The media is dumb. I think the media is more of a problem in our society today than the leaders of this country. Ok.....BadMoon calm down. :rotfl

Slow news day I suppose.

After GTA's "Hot Coffee" thing the media will jump on anything regarding sex in video games.

Gotta love these talk shows when their journalists no NOTHING about the topic or the subject they discuss...notice how quickly they jump on a 2 min. scene that is tastefully depicted and then warp it back around to "sex in video games"? This is actually being ignored by most of the public...the way it should be.

They should be worried more about sex on television than in video games.

no, they should be more worried about the economy. Sex in media? to be perfectly honest? I could not care less. you see full frontal nudity in some overseas commercials for shampoo. I've never quite gotten this.... obsession with modesty that our american culture seems to have.
Sex is a fact of life, it happes, infact, i'm sure it's happeneing right now, to MILLIONS of people. right now peaople are starting, stopping, in the middle of, and planning to engage in sexual ativity. Big whoop. Can we all grow up now?

I mean damn, it reminds me of the way gradeschool kids either giggle or gasp when someone says the word ass when talking about a donkey, or calls someone named Richard, ^^^^.

Yep that reporter is an idiot.

Yes Fox New viewers count as rational and intelligent, I would say they count a heck of a lot more than the other news channels pansy-ass viewers. :cool:

Truer words have never been spoken!

I'm surprised how many parent's let their kids watch some poor sod get his head blown off or cut up, yet when it comes to sex, they ***** and complain.

What a wonderful world we live in.:lol

That just made me giggle. :lol ;)

That's a valid point. I've always been more uncomforable with sexual content on TV rather than violence if my kids were in the room. I agree that attitude is pretty stupid. I attribute it to having two young girls. I'm sure that if I had two boys it I would feel differently.
