I was going to put this in the videogame thread, but it really has to do more with...I don't know what it has to do with, and it seems the author has even less of a clue.

HAHAHA, Oh god. and people wonder why anti-video game crusaders aren't taken seriously. you can tell more or less instantly that he hasn't even played the game at all.

Raped with fire?

And obviously this guy has not been to some of the movies that are out now.

Look at the bottom of the page. Three people so far have called him out as an idiot. At least.

Really, it's people like this guy who make a good case for the idea of banning from the internet.

Edit: I'm so going to take flak for saying that...

People, people, obviously politicians are wasting their time on useless issues like the Iraq War and global warming. Everybody knows that mass distributed 30 seconds of high resolution ass is the true problem that is gnawing at the core of America.

the sad thing is, entirely too many people are going to believe him enough to not bother finding out that Mass Effect has less sex than Titanic, which was what? pg-13?

What I find most amusing is his responses back to the critics. He argues like a five year old:

Wow Scott. If your retorts are as good as this one when you decide to bring this up with any "big guns", I don't think anyone is going to be able to refute your argument.

More of Mass Effect's reviews should have been like that, I would have bought it even sooner.

The sexscene in this game is hardly that.
I'd prefer to call it an "intimate scene".

Yes, it displays sex. It's not even implied; you see it happening.

What separates it from the sexscenes in modern, and even more so in older, movies is that it's done tastefully. It isn't tits everywhere and a lot of screaming, squeeling, "OH GOD YES YOU'RE SO GOOD" and cigarettes afterwards.

It's an intimate moment you're witnessing. Making love rather than sex.

I'm very tempted to say that this is one of He Who Is Ever Ridiculous' buddies.
Yes, that means Thompson. Who else?
