I just wonder... After Sex gets adapted into video games like violence did... What's gonna be the next taboo?

haha who knows...there aren't any taboos left.

No, it's not true... Madison actually has plenty of personality. Yeah, she's a man's dream girl, in a sense that she's smart, independent and she can take care of herself when going up against dangerous situations, and that's what I like in a female protagonist in a video game. I mean, it's your choice entirely to make her strip. And if you accomplish that scene without taking her clothes off, which you can, you get a Dignity Trophy.


I think that's one of the positive things about Heavy Rain...you can choose to stay away from the sex scenes..they aren't an integral part of the game. You can decide not to participate. I hear people complaining about Assassin's Creed 2 because of the FMV where Ezio takes the top off the woman. People will complain about anything..sheesh. While I'd really complain about a fully fledged sex scene in a game (almost like porn) somebody shirtless is hardly anything to complain about.

Well, depends on how far you're willing to go. I mean there are things like, killing children on screen... And much worse stuff I could think of... The question is, will anyone actually go there?

Well, the sex scene happens either way. I didn't see a way to not execute it... I guess unless you kill off one of the characters or get one of them arrested.

Either way, the sex scene... It's tasteful. It's love making. And I mean, was it absolutely necessary? No, I guess not. But you could say the same thing about a lot of movies. And yeah, I get that games aren't movies, but content wise, I don't see why movies can get away with more than games. Especially since movies are made with actual real people, real actors, whereas games, it's all simulated, and oftentimes very stylized.
And yeah, there's still that ignorant-nay, stupid-stigma among middle aged people that games are just toys and they're all for kids. But those people don't know what the hell they're talking about, and they don't care to listen to reason. The most video games can do now is exactly what Heavy Rain is doing. Say, "Non-gamers might look down on it, but let's do it anyway." And with time, like violence, it won't be approved, but it'll at least be tolerated.

Wait, who complained about something like that? Actual gamers?

Oh I thought that if you make the decision to not kiss her then they wouldn't have sex.

no, gamers haven't complained about I don't think. I've just seen it on TV and read a few websites about it. I highly doubt gamers would complain about it, particularly male gamers, what what they have against it? lol.
