| "Re(3):Killer 7, now with full-blown sex" , posted Sat 13 Aug 02:46
Well I just finished reading the plot analysis at gamefaqs (not a bad read, if not digging a little too deep). There is a reason for mentioning this; it has one of the better responses to the Jack Thompson affair than most do with out directly just calling him stupid or saying "it's just a game." Some of the better points to the argument:
"Even the most violently distressing scene in Killer7--involving Blackburn and Pedro--ultimately redeems itself as a stress, because of its function as a creator of pathos."
"The assessment of the sexual content of Killer7 as "full blown sex sequences" is misleading and exaggerated. Only one scene in the entire game qualifies as sexual, and--insofar as it contributes to the game's characterization and content--it is portrayed tastefully for the game's intended adult audience. The specific scene that I refer to is a cut-scene, at the beginning of the CLOUDMAN mission. Samantha […] is interrupted while molesting Harman in his wheelchair. She wears sexually suggestive clothing […] and audibly climaxes during the sequence. Then, exhausted, she collapses in a nearby chair--with suggestive posture--and offers Garcian sexual favors. Importantly for the game, Garcian refuses the invitation.
Other scenes contain sexually adult circumstances, but they are implicitly sexual (rather than explicitly sexual, as the scene described above)."
Also there is physical (sort of) evidence that Jack Thompson has no idea what he is talking about. From VGCats of all places.

He just shook his head afterwards and made some comment about how I'm a trained killer now.
So that makes you equal then, right?
