pearwaldorfNow that the GTA: San Andreas flap has brought nekkid people in video games to the fore, let's go after Sims 2!
"The nudity placed there by the publisher/maker, Electronic Arts, is accessed by the use of a simple code that removes what is called 'the blur' which obscures the genital areas. In other words, the game was released to the public by the manufacturer knowing that the full frontal nudity was resident on the game and would be accessed by use of a simple code widely provided on the Internet."
It's not just the adults that are liberated from their wardrobes. Sims kids can also be nudified, "much to the delight, one can be sure, of pedophiles around the globe who can rehearse, in virtual reality, for their abuse."
Of course, this is also completely false, as all the Sims are about as anatomically accurate as Ken dolls, but hey. We might as well enforce silly puritanical norms about nekkidness and sex, since the religious right are going to take over anyways. But where does it stop? Is this twit going to go after World of Warcraft now because somebody decided to make naked dancing night elves? (Don't watch that unless you're really hoping to kill some brain cells, and yes, humans in WoW do the Macarena when they're clothed too.)
