Wtf happened to the AO rating?
I'm pretty sure games do have nudity, and it's just that most stores don't sell the AO games.
Grand Theft Auto IV?
[QUOTE=BCell;18024988]So how exactly is it important to gameplay? Does nudity gives you more body armour, more health more speed? Does it makes you look smarter, wiser or braver? Do you character feel freedom from being naked while dodging bullets and rockets?
One thing for sure Nudity = QUICK DEATH FROM BULLETS, RADIATION AND POISON DUE TO NOT WEARING ANY BODY ARMOUR OR SAFETY SUIT
For an action game, nudity is not important
For a simulation game like the Sims is where nudity can be applied. Comedy may use nudity for humorous effect.
I'm talking about [B]PURE NUDITY[/b] as in:
No clothes
No pants or skirts
No undergarment
No gloves
No Socks
No Hat
No Masks
No artificial skins[/QUOTE]
I think the main discussion is that we're not talking about why it'd be important to have, I assume we're talking about why we [i]can't[/i] have it, rather than wanting it. It's the hypocrisy behind having violence, illegal and horribly immoral, cruel criminal acts, rather than sex. Which, you know... Kind of continues the human race. Really, just think about the contrast between the two. Which would land you in more hot water with the police? Fucking someone consensually, (Hell, with the level of censorship/ratings in games, it'd be more like seeing a pair of tits) or shooting someone in the face with a shotgun?

You are right but I imagine AO games can't sell well probably because no vendors are willing to sell them.
I think I can remember seeing a portrait of a nude woman in the first Unreal Tournament game
[QUOTE=Ezzy the Fox;18025110]Grand Theft Auto IV?[/QUOTE]
where is there nudity in that game?
also I kind of agree with OP... if there are regular (non pornographic) movies with nudity, why shouldn't video games have it as well?
The lost and the Damn expansion pack for GTA IV

Well there you go, that's the argument. Heh.
I wouldn't know, wasn't a big UT fan. I have 04 and was gonna get the more recent one before I heard it was crap. Oh well.
It's also odd because that "love" story that's awkwardly jammed in to a lot of games is played upon a lot... I mean surely that leads somewhere, right?
[QUOTE=Gordon Frohm;18025191]where is there nudity in that game?[/QUOTE]
Strip clubs. Well, I think. Tits but no bush? Never actually [b]been[/b] to one of them... Shit I'm boring.
Because every video game is for kids and anything that isn't bright, happy and colourful is [b]EVIL[/b].
Just google Redtube, OP.

-until that military guy with the M4 gets a little too close and your AK-47 starts shooting sparkles through him, making him and his friends very happy.
[QUOTE=Zeldy;18024015]Screw nudity, whatever happened to killing children?[/QUOTE]
Killing children isn't allowed in games, and even including children in a Mature game could get the Devs into a shitstorm. There hasn't been a game that would let you kill children with detailed graphics (Exclude Deus Ex, when someone died they dropped and a red pixel would grow underneath the body.), but there are mods for that. Eg: The Fallout Series, but in this case FO3. Since most of the kids in that game just anger the player into thirsting for the blood of orphans. Especially the majority of those damn kids in Little Lamplight.

And now back to George Lopez
You sick pervert.
I've had plenty of sex, but I've never killed anybody.
This is the exact opposite of my video game persona apparently.
But yeah, to make this post an actual serious contribution to the thread: I just hate watching a movie or playing a game and seeing sex/violence thrown in for no reason. If it doesn't add anything to the story or is very out of context, I don't really care for it. Example: In Mass Effect, it was possible to have sex with someone if you built up a relationship with them over time. This is a valid context. In GTA 4, you can pick up hookers who only give you the same benefit as eating some food or getting healed. There is no real reason for them to be in the game. That being said, it's not like you actually see anything, but it is kind of tasteless.

But the thing is, you're NOT required to choose these options.
[QUOTE=johanz;18025541]But the thing is, you're NOT required to choose these options.[/QUOTE]
True enough, in both mass effect and GTA 4 you never have to have sex. It's not a requirement and as far as I know, gameplay will not suffer.
I do know GTA 4 also lets you have sex with your girlfriend(s), which makes sense.

He has a point though:

If only I could rate you dumb and agree. Dumb for being stereotypical and agree because it's true. I'll have to settle for an agree.

Adds to the feel of a not so perfect city. At least it was like that for me. Just makes it more immersive.
It's silly. Any kid can type in an URL in a browser and get more porn than they will ever be able to watch.

If stereotype is true, is it a stereotype?

It would be cool if you could catch an STD or accidentally have a kid or get busted by an undercover cop. That would make it a lot more immersive for me anyway.

STD, reminds me of far cry 2 and shitty malaria.
[QUOTE=johanz;18025688]STD, reminds me of far cry 2 and shitty malaria.[/QUOTE]
Exactly, that would be a lot cooler than having hookers that 'heal' 5 hp you or whatever. Make it have more meaning to the game by raising the stakes a little.

I never really looked at it that way. That is a pretty good point actually.
