Censorship ain’t that bad after all

Apple logoI used to think that I was a liberal guy. Let people enjoy their freedom as long as they don’t invade other peoples freedom, that kind of stuff. Same goes for freedom of speech and press. I even wrote a post (dutch) against the Dutch government who plan to ban the game “Manhunt 2″ in the Netherlands. But now there is a game that is so terrible that it must be forbidden. It’s not the violence. I can handle violence in video games. It’s not about drinking and driving. It’s not the explicit language, I can handle bad mouthing. It’s not the nudity. I even demand nudity in games. Heck, I played Ms. PacMan for years hoping she would do a strip act at level 99.

No no no, none of that. It’s the insult and stigmata against a certain part of the world population. Poking fun at one’s religion is not funny and should be outlawed. I hope all consoles will freeze. What game I’m talking about? “Grand Theft Auto IV”. Here are some shocking screenshots from the game. Those who are not lightly insulted can see the screenshots below. Remember: the screenshots are from the game and they are not funny. NOT FUNNY!

Not funny at all!!

Not funny at all!!

Okay I have to admit, although I love my Mac, this is hilarious!! You gotta love the banana-shaped iPhone clone :-D

    I was seriously considering buying an iPhone, nut now I certainly want this iFruit phone. Can you please let me know where I can get one, and more importantly, how I can hack it to have no reception in the Netherlands as well…?

    Reminds me of a game, I think it was one of the Mercenary installments from Novagen. They had put a virtual Novagen office in the game world. If you played on the Amiga, the office would have a trash can with an Atari ST in it. I you played on the ST, the trash can contained an Amiga. Now with the former I don’t have a problem, but in the latter case, it is unacceptable to put Amigas in trash cans! Censorship is indeed not so bad after all! Death to freedom of speech!

    In game funnies remind me of Maniac Mansion 2: Day of the Tentacle.
    In the house stood a PC where you could play Maniac Mansion 1.

    Oh, and macs are for fruits. ;-) Censor that!
