Stupid, Ridiculous and Flat-Out Not Right

When it comes to video games, movies and media in general, I'm pretty lenient. Whether it's an insane amount of violence or sexual innuendo, I am usually pretty okay with it. Usually because I feel that I grew up watching and playing those types of games (such as the GTA) and my parents taught me the difference between what is real and what is fake, what is right and what is wrong.

This, however, is different. This, is f**ked up . It's a Japanese game, called RapeLay.

Here's some information from the Belfast Telegraph:

A game that involves the player stalking victims and then raping them in a virtual world is being offered for sale by online retailer Amazon.com, the Belfast Telegraph's website can reveal.

The shocking 'rape simulator', Rapelay, is set in Japan and carries a sickening game description on the Amazon website. An MP said last night that he plans to raise the issue in Parliament.

Reviews by gaming websites have expressed horror at the basis for the game.One website review describes "tears glistening in the young girl's eyes" as she is attacked in graphic detail.

Players begin the game by stalking a mother on a subway station before violently raping her. They then move on to attack her two daughters described as virgin schoolgirls.

Players are also allowed to enter 'freeform mode' where they can rape any woman and get other male game characters to join the attacks.

Pregnancy and abortion are listed as 'key features'. One review said: "If she does become pregnant you're supposed to force her to get an abortion, otherwise she gets more and more visibly pregnant each time you have sex."If you allow the child to be born then the woman will throw you in front of a train!"

The game's producer, Illusion is a company from Japan famous for making similar 3D Hentai games.

The online encyclopedia, Wikipedia, says: "Due to Illusion's policy, its games are not intended to be sold or used outside of Japan, and official support is only given in Japanese and for use in Japan."

There's more:

Then there are the rape grognards who want a rape simulator to be as realistic as possible. They want it to include accidental pregnancies, crying, abortion, threat of murder, fuel mixture, full elevator control, and pre-rape start-up checks. RapeLay is the grognard's rape simulator. It is the Falcon 4.0 of rape. [SomethingAweful]

Amazon.com had the game for sale on their website and since then it has been taken down from all major websites including Amazon and E-Bay.

Here's a screenshot of the game on sale at Amazon and here's a screenshot from the game that's safe. If you want to see more, just go watch Hentai, its pretty much the same thing.
