[Firewire]

The game begins with a teenage girl on a subway platform. She notices you are looking at her and asks, "Can I help you with something?"

That is when you, the player, can choose your method of assault.

With the click of your mouse, you can grope her and lift her skirt. Then you can follow her aboard the train, assaulting her sister and her mother.

As you continue to play, "friends" join in and in a series of graphic, interactive scenes, you can corner the women, rape them again and again.

The game allows you to even impregnate a girl and urge her to have an abortion. The reason behind your assault, explains the game, is that the teenage girl has accused you of molesting her on the train. The motive is revenge.

Isn't that game, like, 4 years old by now?

I smell a slowtaku pic coming up.

I smell a slowtaku pic coming up.

Hopefully it's the SAMUS IS A WHAT? picture, that's the funniest and it never gets posted.

 

[Speevy]

This is a great game for totally normal people who should not be evaluated for mental illness.

 

[nightez]

Well obviously it is merely a work of fiction. Playing such games doesn't justify or glorify something as repulsive rape. In the same way as shooters don't. I only hope the game has moral consequences for your actions as parts of the gameplay.

this thread again? jesus

are the rapists circumcised? do they tip each other? do they rape coworkers?

 

[pix]

Didn't Gamespot give this game a 98?

 

[XiaNaphryz]

Commence murder simulation arguments!

It's not America so I doubt it.

 

[bistromathics]

this game is SO OLD

 

[Cow Mengde]

Isn't that "Real Girlfriend" game a porn game? I don't know, since the only penetration I saw involved her nose.

 

[Haunted]

They should make a Wii port for maximum exposure.

I don't know why but this made me piss myself laughing. Reminds me of this:

Or they could do it on Natal. 360 + 10 mil in Japan.

:lol

Yeah I agree, rape is hilarious!

 

[hateradio]

Japan... Japan... Japan.

this game is SO OLD

I thought that said, "SO SOLD" and I was going to ava quote you :lol thankfully I re-read.

 

[Hari Seldon]

Or they could do it on Natal. 360 + 10 mil in Japan.

So true. :lol :lol

 

[Aphallatosis]

I had no idea there was so much depth to the gameplay, I always thought it was just one of those games with a 3d model of a girl in an empty room.

 

[bloodforge]

The game is almost 4 years old at this point. Why complain about a game years after it's release that nobody outside a small niche cared about? They're only giving the game more exposure(though since everybody is stealing it, Illusion isn't making any profit).

 

[jooey]

Yeah I agree, rape is hilarious!

The "C" stands for "Current" right?

Oh, this again.... :lol

When does the DLC come out?

Way to stay on the ball CNN.

it pretty much is

 

[Brobzoid]

for such an over-populated space Rapelay sure got some mindshare!

 

[bistromathics]

overpopulated how?

 

[Dresden]

3D sucks anyways. It's all about 2D.

 

[bjork]

CNN is a year or two late......:lol

 

[How About No]

Benzaie of Blistered Thumbs is reviewing this game soon...

 

[Yaweee]

Oh god, this again? I don't consider it any different than erotica or adult videos that cover similar themes. Most arguments for the banning of games like that are pretty much the same as arguments for the banning of all violent videogames, except for the arbitrary distinction that the game being sexual somehow makes it different.

Also, :lol at the main point of the article, which the OP really should have quoted. Because of Equality Now's attempts to ban the game, even more people have seen and played it. They just put it on the public radar and contributed to its spread and popularity.

 

[Dresden]

I'm tempted to type in 'rape' in PornHub or something and see how many results I get.

But it's OMGJAPAN/GAEM so there's more moral outrage, I'm sure.

 

[Gen X]

Was going to get this but it didn't have achievements.

 

[Dogenzaka]

"We suggest the Japanese government ban all games that _____"

Yeah, no.

 

[Vorador]

Again this game pops up? This must be a slow news day.

 

[AtomskEater]

...

I think if you don't force the girl to get an abortion she pushes the character in front of a train or something. Not sure what that's a moral for, but otherwise there are no consequences.

 

[InfiniteNine]

3D sucks anyways. It's all about 2D.

and the game is terrible anyways.

 

[OMG Aero]

The reason behind your assault, explains the game, is that the teenage girl has accused you of molesting her on the train. The motive is revenge.

wait what
The story is that a girl falsely accuses you of molesting her, so to get back at her you actually do molest her?

speaking of creepy..

[Dabookerman]

This really makes no sense. CNN needs to deal with it's own countries problems and not Japan. This will only serve to let people know the name of the game, which will mean more people will get it. AREN'T THEY CLEVER?!

Could've told us that was NSFW lol

 

[Steve o 3000]

So they're making a Ben Roethlisberger game?

 

[Desi]

i think the player character dies in all the endings. like she shanks you, hit by a train, blah blah

 

[speculawyer]

Obligatory . . .

 

[AtomskEater]

i think the player character dies in all the endings. like she shanks you, hit by a train, blah blah

Oh, so I guess there is kind of a consequence then? Interesting.
