Ehm I personally don’t think these games are too controversial, but Bully and South park the stick of truth .Were considered a bit controversial by the mainstream media when they came out.

The game Bully (2006) had controversy before and after the release. Especially among parents and educators since they were shown in a bad light. The title pretty much tells you mostly what the game was about, you play as a bully in a stereotypical high school. It was an open-world game , kinda like GTA but a more high school edition? People were afraid it would encourage childeren to bully their weaker peers.

South Park: the stick of truth, the show was already controversial so the game was too which wasn’t really a surprise. I mean it was made for those who like the show , so making it all family-friendly isn’t really an option.

I wouldn’t say that game is controversial, unless it’s sparked some uproar online.

I mean.

Depends on where you’re coming from. Like, if we’re talking about Australia, then every game is controversial. They ban everything.

But if you mean in NA, then it’s a lot rarer for something to actually be controversial. Gaming journalism is pretty garbage, they like to take something a mum said on Facebook and blow it up to look like parents worldwide are petitioning to get a game taken off the shelves.

When that’s not. Happening.

Controversial games… hmm…

I really don’t understand the problem with the pose. They are basically the same in both the original and replacement pose. The original looks better because she looks weird jumping up like that.

Yeah, there was nothing wrong with the pose at all. Also, some people got offended because she’s a lesbian.

That sounds more like the real reason. Just because you can see she has a but doesn’t make the image sexualized. Your going to see someones but if they wear any type of pants. Yeah, I still stand by what I said about the second pose being worse. It just doesn’t look right.

Now, had they put her in some skimpy outfit that barely covered her chest and her but then yes the reason would of been justified. At least, we can see the absurdity of the change.
