Comments on ‘Xbox girl-on-girl game upsets Singapore’

Blue Film 

Coat

I didn't realise they were called "blue" movies because the actors were actually blue.

You learn something every day.

Sheer filth! 

No matter how hard I try, I cannot erase the searing details that keep replaying themselves over and over behind my closed eyelids. Damn you for exposing us innocents to those vile sights and sounds!

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaargh! The horror!!!!!!!

The Captain Kirk Effect 

Paris Hilton

What was the tally for James T?

Oh yeah, 70 odd episodes, 53 luv interests and the real bummer 17 of them ended up dead, and that includes Joan Collins but not Paris Hilton. This game just carries on the tradition.

To echo the words shown on the screen... 

That's it?! Hardly anything to get worked up about.

I was once told some time ago that the music censors in Singapore who monitor for the use of bad language only read the lyrics and never actually listen to the songs themselves. This prompted one song about football to cleverly dodge them by singing "FA Cup" as "Faaaaaaa Cup!!" :D

WTF? 

Thumb Down

Is that it? Was hoping for some proper filth. Suppose I should have guessed from the lack of a NSFW notice.. Bit poor to ban it on that basis though.

Inter gender??? Try inter species.... 

Joke

While I'm more than happy to watch a couple of foxy ladies to get it on, (not dudes tho' - sick!), I think the point everyone seems to have missed here is that these two ladies appear to be from different species.... while skin colour shouldn't matter in today's modern world, one of them is frekkin' blue!!!! I mean come on?

Different lifeforms getting jiggy? Is that any different to say a Welshman/Aussie/Kiwi/Aberdonian and his sheep? Is that a union we have all been to quick to judge?

In my time... 

Happy

in S'pore, there was a story circulating that the People's Action Party, PAP (the goverment), had banned an edition of the New England Journal of Medicine because it contained an Article on PAP Smears.

No man action though? 

Isn't it strange that they have straight and lesbian love interests, but no man on man action.

Surely if they are being "open minded" then they should have included that too.

amusing if tame

where was the nookie? i don't want subtle, hinted at, shit! i want to see blue tits bouncing in front of my eyes!!

What some of us really care about... 

Boffin

How far into the game is this bit?

Is it a lone incident, or does this seem to be "going around?"

And, sure, while I'm asking these questions: does it advance the plot?

Not played it but... 

Alien

I'm sure it's just a case of a scripted section where the players character gets a chance to bang the blue bird for info. It just so happens that Mass Effect has a really good character creation scheme that's not fussy about race or gender..

Huh? 

Joke

All I saw was random images indicating something happened...but nothing specific.

@Singapor : Paranoid much?

s/he is asexual damnit 

It isn't lesbian action, the alien species shown is asexual, ASEXUAL!

As a Singaporean myself.

I've been hating these strict laws since they started curbing titles deemed unnecessary for the public in the late 90s.

Didn't feel much of an impact till the day i wanted to get Rockstar's GTA3 and vice city box sets which was banned too.

All these years the authorities have only succeeded in making the young turn towards piracy and this in turn worsens their effort to curb piracy thru mediums such as the black market dvds and torrents.

Am just glad my wolfenstein era till quake 2 had their stinking paws still being nursed by their mommas.

PS: Long live Pirate_Bay

Shocking 

Coat

And I thought that Singapore was a free port, everyone can get anything they wanted.

gratuitous 

Doesn't 'gratuitous sex and violence' pretty much rule out every teen or above game, not to mention many Hollywood films?

Am I missing something? 

Paris Hilton

Surely thats not it? I mean if it is.... Then dang

Which is the best Linux for laptops?

I have been starting to venture into the Linux/Unix world, currently using the Ubuntu 8.04 on my ThinkPad X60. But is there a better distro for mobiles?

I've given up buying DVDs, though I haven't stopped watching them. Quite the reverse - I'm watching more movies and TV series than ever before. Before you suggest it, I'm not downloading anything either...
