The thing is mods and nude patches for games have existed for years. Ed.) Most of the people who called for the ban didn’t seem to think they even needed to see the content to judge it. (I tried to sell my copy to EB, but they wouldn’t take it because they were only allowed to sell a later version of the game which blocked the mod. It started out with complaints over the violence but with the GTA: San Andreas “Hot Coffee” mod the cries for the game to be banned reached fever pitch. Most recently the GTA series has been the main target of moral outrage.

The first games to feature proper nudity were Strip Poker simulators. Both those games quite rightly took more flack for their violent content and racism than they did for the nudity.

Whenever it does pop up there are scores of ignorant detractors trying to drum up support for censorship. While violence has always been prevalent in games, sex and nudity has been relatively rare. Nowadays it seems the videogames industry is top of their hit list.
