CNN’s band of leftist muckrakers have caught the lingering scent of the by now thoroughly decomposed RapeLay scandal, and so have attempted to portray Japan as spreading a vile plague of wicked “hentai games” over the Internet, polluting the minds of those who choose to pirate them and turning men into rape machines even more vicious than they already were.
Naturally, feminist fraudsters Equality Now are trotted out for soundbites and CNN calls for a ban, in what must be a convenient tie-up of two of the western media’s more profitable sidelines, moral hysteria and Japan bashing.
The video is visible below:
“This country has long produced products the rest of the world would call pornographic” – apparently the fact that it is the US which harbours the world’s largest porn industry is lost on CNN, along with much else it seems.
The rest of the piece’s many inaccuracies or outright falsehoods can safely be left to the tender ministrations of the comments.
You say CNN is leftist? Boy how things are changed since late 80s when i first could watch that TV channel, it looked to me as ultra-conservative back then. I must spend some time for watching CNN now to see how it is. I say i am leftist but i don`t share their opinion in this issue or of hentai games in general. Negative attitudes towards modern Japanese entertainment genres, like those most otaku are embracing, are generally coming from political right world-wide. I observe these things from Sweden, but i believe this is mostly true.
I've never really been interested in playing a rape game, but if they ever make a game where you win by raping self-righteous female reporters live on CNN I'll be sure to download it illegally.
Ted Turner.. Ted Turner is the "man" behind the scenes. He was the #1 principal responsible for the continuation of the stereotype of "all cartoons are for kids"(search what happened with "Swat Kats" if you don´t believe me). Now Ted Turner has directed the gaze to Japan, his mission is clear. 1st The videogames, 2nd The Manga and finally 3rd the Anime. Mark my words, he seeks the destruction of whatever is opposed to his beliefs and will use all its power and influence to achieve his desires.
Personnaly, I like hentai, but I really hate Hentai with Violations.. If they ban this games, I won't be sad... But it is a little fascist in some view too... Anyway, they can't do anything...
I agree. I don`t like hentai in which sexual situations & nudity is mixed with violence and gore. At least it is fiction. But i fear that censorship & outright ban, if it comes to power, will sweep away all hentai, including even cutest, friendliest and happiest themes which i like.
It seems Ted Turner is possessed by evil spirits (sometimes i feel he always has)or is bitter because of impotence.
Ah..... Did someone mention the game BIKO3 by any chanse?? cause its from the same maker and it was released before Rapelay.
Anyways i played both games and I don't go stalking wemen or trying to rape them. I like to earn sex not force it. Its rewarding to earn it and specially getting it without asking for it.
Don't know how people can go and rape someone that they don't know that can potencially be already pregnant or have AIDS. And Video games really don't force you to do things you don't want to do.
*bangs his head on table 3X* You know, it's bad enough Japan got some heat from Equality now about the hentai ban and that soon faded away as time passes. Now CNN is butting their heads into it. And you wonder how this kind of news is now getting noticed again somehow when most people didn't give two s**ts about the hentai ban in Japan. This is just another way to for Equality now to bash and keeping on bashing until the Japanese gov't gets sent to the edge and go through a complete ban on all forms of hentai. Which many people do not want.
There're better things for them to ban instead of hentai or video games IMO such as paintball - shoot real people with a real guns that uses air and paintballs(if frozen you can actually kill people or if you shoot someone at point blank into the eye and not to mention you don't need a licence to buy a gun)
Yeah, but this is just something that is just as heinous and just plain stupid. It was bad enough already. I knew hentai games had their freaky ways of doing things, but no matter how crazy it got, it's just a game, and I'm not bothered with it. And it would be stupid to do something off of a video game. I guess I'll be watching Equality Now's progress from here on out til they get denied or not.
Hi I'm a 'leftist' and I like to think of myself as a feminist. I don't see what any of that has to do with rapelay type games, which I kinda like.
Also, I wouldn't call cnn left or right, I'd call them opportunist.
As much as I don't like the sound of "Rapelay", it's still freedom of expression. This game is completely harmless, like many others of its kind.
Getting rid of these games would do more harm than good. Most of the guys playing those games wouldn't be influenced to go out and commit a crime for pleasure because they would be perfectly happy the way they are.
If they start taking them away, it will be harder for men who enjoy them to cope, which will result in more sex crimes against girls and women.
Another thing is that games with fighting and murder are easily allowed on the market, but games with sexual content are thought of as disgusting and wrong. This hardly makes sense, seeing as killing someone is widely considered worse than raping someone.
fail argument, that only goes to show 2d as being much worse, you can't do "rape" in "that real-life sh*t," since that's usually consensual and just acted
What has CNN taught me? That the internet is going to kill us all, the Japan is the root of all evil, and that actual intelligent people who are explaining the logical answer are clearly all lying scumbags.
My favorite part of that "Article" (if it can be called that - Things like this are an offence to professional Journalism) was when the presenter asked "Did you feel offended as a woman?" to which was responded with "Nope. Not at all.", followed by a hasty scene cut. Owned, foolish news-woman.
RETARDS!!!! racist anti Japaneses
IT ANIMATED PORN created by a non-government company SO YOU-CNN can't tell them what to do.
the AMERICAN PORn Industry creates a lot of LIVE-ACTION rape videos that are more easy to view on the internet except that it disgusting bcus it done by Skin-Heads
which THE BITCHHES RIGHTS have no problem with in supporting their country's RApe Industry
A heavily male-dominated society, cultural collectivism, emphasis on maintaining the peace, and the feelings of shame rape brings to a woman all add up to a much lower expected percentage of reported rape cases. Population difference can affect the statistics, too.
I'm not saying that the frequency of rape is actually lower in the unspecified western countries you refer to; I'm simply saying that one needs to be aware of what factors might skew the results from your data.
Even one of the few feminists with any brains, Camille Paglia, says much of what is called by certain type "rape" nowadays used to be called Unbrided Love.
Case in point – recall the nationwide news furor in the Anglo West over the Grand Theft Auto video game megahit because one scenario in the game among all its murders of the occasional cop & lots of homies allows one to beat-up (or potentially kill) one female prostitute in a car.
However nary a word comparatively (particularly from femnazis) about the day in & day out veritable holocaust of billions of "MEN" & zombified men being shot, chainsawed, grenaded, run-over, napalmed & otherwise beaten to death on hundreds of millions of Playstations & Xboxes worldwide. Just imagine if even ONE historical wargame among all its endless torturous agonizing slaughter (of males… grin) had a scenario where you could play a scenario of even just one battlefield rape such as in the Soviet invasion of Berlin 1945 (of which there were a million rapes & plenty of murders)… or an encounter with a South Korean “Comfort Woman” in Asia in 1944. Just imagine the News headlines in the feminazi West would absolutely rage to the heavens & call for the firing of all involved in its development. For something that is even in a slightly indirect way “Sex” – people being fundamentally "nice to each other" (with biological pleasure) vs. widespread without a care maiming agonizing torture of weapons of war... murder.
ANY form of sex is qualitatively by an order of magnitude less of an offense than the taking of human life.
If one's brain wasn’t feebled by femnutzi p*ssy for themselves Lez Womyns courses one would realize that essentially all men are “Predators” – Hunter-Gatherers for millenia of History & ALL Cultures.
Hitting the Bar, Club, or Dance Hall or Chuch Singles to Score/get Laid or meet a One-Night Stand is being a Predator.. whether the woman is chronologically in her teens, 20s, 30s whatever. For the half of women who hit the Bar, Clubs, Dance Hall, Chuch Single, Striptease Club…. whether for some studly action, or a way to soak some Bling, Wine & Dine & Rent monies OR BOTH… Oops, those women are “Predators” too.
wow...i've seen more hate on this threat for cnn than i saw for the girl who sold her 7yr sister to a group of men for gang raping! what is wrong with u ppl! the games u like and play are fucked up! idk whether u enjoy iy or not! enjoy it, just dont be pissed when sumone says its fucked up, or encouraged ppl to rape! thats a pretty fair assumtion albiet not true!...i personally have watched hentai, nevercould get into it...
Remember that time when EN stole random anonymous comments from a certain ''gaming site'' to point out how evil gamers and their eroge are. And yet these people (read, liars) get attention from all over the world because of CNN.
"Bind and rape the woman for firing tne player from his imaginary job" should be "Imaginarily bind and rape the imaginary woman for firing the imaginary player from his imaginary job".
Seriously, it's a fucking game. All it provides is better quality than imagination.
This is why I DON'T watch T.V. anymore. It's full of bullshit and crap that makes no sense. Equality now wants to do something to protect women that's fine, why not start by going into Pakistan and propose ban on child marriages where kids die of miscarriage instead of spewing non-sense shit that came out from nowhere. They only have assumptions and no supporting evidence. O, wait, I forgot, the group is composed of hysterical bitches and pussy fag guys.
I'm American, but CNN can kiss my ASS in regards to this issue. That's the problem with most of the world, we try to hide too much stuff & it makes things that much worse instead of leaving it to the people who are legally able to purchase these products. What business do kids and or teenagers have affiliating themselves with these products if they are not mature enough to handle the content? And as far as women are concerned, there is male rape products also, but you don't see men complaining.......
Japan being the peaceful country they are, they really need to stop being such pushovers already. Japan news stations should do interesting topics of American culture and criticize them for once if they haven't already.
Here's some ideas:
* Why is the overall crime rate so high in the US far surpassing Japan??
* Why is the US government starting wars with other nations for??
* Why does the US impose democracy and morals on other nations??
* Why do so many people have such big heads in America?
The list can go on~
Seriously why won't the US just leave Japan alone, they already have enough things to worry about then high and mighty America to dictate Japanese culture.
If anything this is all just fetish of many and has no real life threat but to arrogant people of their egos.
Ah, once again they failed to do enough research on their arguments again. Didnt they know that at the end of the game's story that the rapist gets stabbed or gets run over by a train? Its like they got trolls to write the scripts and nothing to research the target of their argument...
This news report done by CNN report is totally illogical. It's not even their country, they shouldn't get involved. And even if the game were to be brought over to the US, there would be laws prohibiting underage consumers from buying it,same with shooting games. It's just idiotic. The Japanese people see this as the norm, kids are exposed at a younger age, that's one of Japan's problems, leave it to them to solve it. If they need help, fine. But until then it's really none of all these Americain women's rights groups concern, nor is it any of their buissiness what happens in a foreign country that they no little to nothing of.
dont be so retarded man. they said it in the video and its a fact, you can download this game in america and 1000's have, as have I. so in essence because of the internet and its availability it is a world wide issue. they are making this content and because of licensing issues and general piracy of the internet it can become an american issue. if you want to get real or unrealistic this is a human issue and nationalities are irrelevant.
dont get me wrong i think this game has a 1% chance of turning someone into a racist, and that 99% of this report is pretty retarded.
Pretty sure somewhere along the lines, its already been scientifically claimed that the reason Japan has so little rape can be pointed to their upbringing and the fact that what little tension they may have, can be easilly (AND LEGALLY) dispelled via video games. Thus the real world really becomes second thought.
wow fuck you CNN you can't propose a ban on all hentai games there are 100s of thousands out there, not to mention anime and manga as well. On top of that this game doesn't even come close to how awesome hentai games are. The average hentai game has rape in it and most have cooler stuff like tentacles :p.
man...i thought this issue finally faded away but noooooo CNN just had to bring this shit up again and bring more beatdown to rapelay and japan in general.
Still shooting a dead horse? When will equality now learn. They should be focusing on ways to abolish Sharia Law in countries over something like this...
First-person shooting games are probably more dangerous, considering you will hear more about random acts violence of public shootings in malls, schools, government buildings, etc...
It's funny how this Kyung Lah is high and mighty about her "moral codes" when it has been proven that she's a slut, especially with her getting fired from having an affair:
Note the section "KNBC Staffers Fired Over Affair":
http://www.labusinessjournal.com/article.asp?aID=61097007.32228202.1118806.58473302.875901.669&aID2=86053 [http://www.labusinessjournal.com/article.asp?aID=61097007.32228202.1118806.58473302.875901.669&aID2=86053]
Typical fucking American's, always telling everyone else what to do.
Dont you people realise that if the rest of the world wanted to be like you, they would be already.
Go the fuck away and live your own hypocritical meaningless lives and leave the rest of the world alone.
Just because you dont like something, doesnt mean it is wrong.
that's terrible. how could the japanese make a game about rape. what they should make is a game about picking up prostitutes, paying them for sex, and then killing them to get your money back.
It's a good thing that CNN got on this. You can't be having games out there that haven't been made in over a year. Good job CNN, way to do some hard hitting journalism on a game that came out 4 years ago, stopped being made 2 years ago, and hasn't been available from any mass retailer in the US.
The battle of real life organizations and governments against imaginary 2D girls and (to recent extent) 3D rendered ones is quite fierce.
They should point on the doll where the naughty 2D loli girl touched them so they can get properly counseled.
Soon we will have crazed moral protesters burning drawing tablets, art materials, and pirated copies of Photoshop and 3D Studio Max in an attempt to destroy the source of this evil 2D/3D imaginary menace.
I don't have as much issue with traditional porn/hentai games existing.
However, I think anyone who is honest with themselves will admit that rape/sexual violence games like these are just repulsive to the extreme and demonstrate how callous and self-centered human beings are.
The fact that so many on this site are upset over the notion of a group standing up to oppose these sorts of sickening games speaks volumes of humankind's moral chasm.
Seriously NOT ALL hentai games is about raping and such, they just ignore this fact and I'm sure most hentai gamers don't really have an actual interest with real woman. And how about they cross-examine a raper and try to ask him "do you play hentai games Mr. Rapist?"
I hate women's rights groups. If it was RapeGuy then it would be different
You say CNN is leftist? Boy how things are changed since late 80s when i first could watch that TV channel, it looked to me as ultra-conservative back then.

So? 2 nukes not enough? trying to find another reason to drop the 3 one?
"Oh shit! Japan has much better adult game industry than we do, DIEEEEEEEEE!!!!"
Ah..... Did someone mention the game BIKO3 by any chanse?? cause its from the same maker and it was released before Rapelay.

Don't know how people can go and rape someone that they don't know that can potencially be already pregnant or have AIDS. And Video games really don't force you to do things you don't want to do.
stupid CNN instead of helping real boys and girls that get rapped everyday. Changing the main problem to video games ??? go fuck them self !!!!
fuck you taina bien-aim fk you asshole
Stupid CNN inste
Christ... Can someone tell me when it was that CNN became the scare mongering cock bags that are Fox News?
I wonder that too.
If CNN was right, then Japan is the craddle of raptists.
*bangs his head on table 3X* You know, it's bad enough Japan got some heat from Equality now about the hentai ban and that soon faded away as time passes. Now CNN is butting their heads into it.

thats why its never gonna happen to many ppl DONT want it ban

With everyone trying to be hellbent on preventing that pack of crazies doesn't matter what their taste are this is stupid
but moment I saw this I thought "Ah Shitbiscuits"
CNN is just trying to take the attention away from Obama's socialist take over of the US
But damn, couldn't they target some other country!?!
I doubt that. CNN is clearly right-wing already.
Anon 10:55 you seem to know there is a word "socialist", but you have absolutely no idea what it means.
As much as I don't like the sound of "Rapelay", it's still freedom of expression. This game is completely harmless, like many others of its kind.
Getting rid of these games would do more harm than good. Most of the guys playing those games wouldn't be influenced to go out and commit a crime for pleasure because they would be perfectly happy the way they are.

This is all coming from a girl, by the way.
Have they checked all the BDSM and Rape websites in the internet..?
This is 2D compared to that real-life sh*t...
Moralistic Fools...I guess the only way for them to learn their place in the world is to get killed off during Judgment Day by Hunter Killers...
fail argument, that only goes to show 2d as being much worse, you can't do "rape" in "that real-life sh*t," since that's usually consensual and just acted
That's so stupid.
So did CNN have a counter point?
Probably not eh?
What has CNN taught me? That the internet is going to kill us all, the Japan is the root of all evil, and that actual intelligent people who are explaining the logical answer are clearly all lying scumbags.
My favorite part of that "Article" (if it can be called that - Things like this are an offence to professional Journalism) was when the presenter asked "Did you feel offended as a woman?" to which was responded with "Nope. Not at all.", followed by a hasty scene cut. Owned, foolish news-woman.
They seriously still going on about rapelay? and really all this attention is going to do is make people check it out and play it.
It certainly did the trick for Mortal Kombat back in the day.
RETARDS!!!! racist anti Japaneses
IT ANIMATED PORN created by a non-government company SO YOU-CNN can't tell them what to do.
the AMERICAN PORn Industry creates a lot of LIVE-ACTION rape videos that are more easy to view on the internet except that it disgusting bcus it done by Skin-Heads
which THE BITCHHES RIGHTS have no problem with in supporting their country's RApe Industry
And yet, Tokyo has lower reported rape cases than certain western countries...
That goes to whole Japan too.
>lower reported rape cases
>reported
A heavily male-dominated society, cultural collectivism, emphasis on maintaining the peace, and the feelings of shame rape brings to a woman all add up to a much lower expected percentage of reported rape cases. Population difference can affect the statistics, too.
I'm not saying that the frequency of rape is actually lower in the unspecified western countries you refer to; I'm simply saying that one needs to be aware of what factors might skew the results from your data.
Phffft...
Even one of the few feminists with any brains, Camille Paglia, says much of what is called by certain type "rape" nowadays used to be called Unbrided Love.
Case in point – recall the nationwide news furor in the Anglo West over the Grand Theft Auto video game megahit because one scenario in the game among all its murders of the occasional cop & lots of homies allows one to beat-up (or potentially kill) one female prostitute in a car.
However nary a word comparatively (particularly from femnazis) about the day in & day out veritable holocaust of billions of "MEN" & zombified men being shot, chainsawed, grenaded, run-over, napalmed & otherwise beaten to death on hundreds of millions of Playstations & Xboxes worldwide. Just imagine if even ONE historical wargame among all its endless torturous agonizing slaughter (of males… grin) had a scenario where you could play a scenario of even just one battlefield rape such as in the Soviet invasion of Berlin 1945 (of which there were a million rapes & plenty of murders)… or an encounter with a South Korean “Comfort Woman” in Asia in 1944. Just imagine the News headlines in the feminazi West would absolutely rage to the heavens & call for the firing of all involved in its development. For something that is even in a slightly indirect way “Sex” – people being fundamentally "nice to each other" (with biological pleasure) vs. widespread without a care maiming agonizing torture of weapons of war... murder.
ANY form of sex is qualitatively by an order of magnitude less of an offense than the taking of human life.
If one's brain wasn’t feebled by femnutzi p*ssy for themselves Lez Womyns courses one would realize that essentially all men are “Predators” – Hunter-Gatherers for millenia of History & ALL Cultures.
Hitting the Bar, Club, or Dance Hall or Chuch Singles to Score/get Laid or meet a One-Night Stand is being a Predator.. whether the woman is chronologically in her teens, 20s, 30s whatever.

It's all a part of the demise of traditional media.
They have to be more sensationalist to try to keep the attention of their dwindling base.
It's another Kyung Lah article, what do you expect? She always does stuff like this when CCN can't find any real news.

''BTW, doing the 12 year old was the best.''
the feminist really receive the ISLAMIC laws, females are start with stupid and false ideas
OMFG!!!!! stop riding japans dick
"Bind and rape the woman for firing tne player from his imaginary job" should be "Imaginarily bind and rape the imaginary woman for firing the imaginary player from his imaginary job".
Seriously, it's a fucking game. All it provides is better quality than imagination.
lol slow day for CNN. i feel sorry for the couple that were stated as gamers. Looks like they'll be getting a visit about the gaming habits.
lol equality now "....violence, stalking, and rape of women....."
Double standards? what if Men are raped? equality now would be making ti the game of the year!!
"...One official who would not allow us to use her name...."
Oh, come on! Everyone knows thats Agnes-chan that started this out of states in the first place, and gave CNN an "anonymous" call
This is why I DON'T watch T.V. anymore. It's full of bullshit and crap that makes no sense. Equality now wants to do something to protect women that's fine, why not start by going into Pakistan and propose ban on child marriages where kids die of miscarriage instead of spewing non-sense shit that came out from nowhere. They only have assumptions and no supporting evidence. O, wait, I forgot, the group is composed of hysterical bitches and pussy fag guys.
when the U.S. finally stop bitching against Japan ..... the big bad liver.
Its bad to play a game that you can only win by raping, but its ok to play games wich you can only win by killing, stealing, breaking laws, etc.
Perfect.
That shit is old, it's like bumping a dead thread. Sigh.
I'm American, but CNN can kiss my ASS in regards to this issue. That's the problem with most of the world, we try to hide too much stuff & it makes things that much worse instead of leaving it to the people who are legally able to purchase these products. What business do kids and or teenagers have affiliating themselves with these products if they are not mature enough to handle the content? And as far as women are concerned, there is male rape products also, but you don't see men complaining.......
Yeah I just saw this on CNN a hour ago. I knew this would show up on Sankaku!!!
I don't like how they just single out just Japan, it is so wrong!
Really? You saw this in CNN? Do they really miss this much in editing, before they run it out? Is this CNN`s April fool`s prank then?
Those pretentious cunts should worry about the problems of their own homeland and society. Isn't there already enough to work on??
lol The key word is "imaginary" CNN is so stupid.
I like how they included the British players.
Japan being the peaceful country they are, they really need to stop being such pushovers already. Japan news stations should do interesting topics of American culture and criticize them for once if they haven't already.
Here's some ideas:
* Why is the overall crime rate so high in the US far surpassing Japan??
* Why is the US government starting wars with other nations for??
* Why does the US impose democracy and morals on other nations??
* Why do so many people have such big heads in America?
The list can go on~
Right on, except U.S. should impose democracy to their own country to begin with.
Just on a side note, I don't think eroge have EVER been called hentai games in Japan~
Seriously why won't the US just leave Japan alone, they already have enough things to worry about then high and mighty America to dictate Japanese culture.
If anything this is all just fetish of many and has no real life threat but to arrogant people of their egos.
Ah, once again they failed to do enough research on their arguments again. Didnt they know that at the end of the game's story that the rapist gets stabbed or gets run over by a train? Its like they got trolls to write the scripts and nothing to research the target of their argument...
i like how they ignore what gamers, the people that use the products, think.
ESPECIALLY SINCE A WOMAN SAID IT TOO
I hate that fucking Kyung Lah so much. So much inaccurate and irresponsible journalism comes from that cunt's mouth.
This news report done by CNN report is totally illogical. It's not even their country, they shouldn't get involved.

but your argument is dumb.
Man this Advertisement of this game makes me want to download it now haha FUCK YOU LEFTEST AMERICA fucken hippie fucks
Leftist?
Moralfags please stop fucking with Japanese culture.
Lawl time to download
Fucken Americans, go die.
Pretty sure somewhere along the lines, its already been scientifically claimed that the reason Japan has so little rape can be pointed to their upbringing and the fact that what little tension they may have, can be easilly (AND LEGALLY) dispelled via video games. Thus the real world really becomes second thought.
wow fuck you CNN you can't propose a ban on all hentai games there are 100s of thousands out there, not to mention anime and manga as well. On top of that this game doesn't even come close to how awesome hentai games are. The average hentai game has rape in it and most have cooler stuff like tentacles :p.
i watched this morning and yea the cnn chick was hella biased

We should comment here.
man...i thought this issue finally faded away but noooooo CNN just had to bring this shit up again and bring more beatdown to rapelay and japan in general.
must be slow in the news. shit.
Still shooting a dead horse? When will equality now learn. They should be focusing on ways to abolish Sharia Law in countries over something like this...
First-person shooting games are probably more dangerous, considering you will hear more about random acts violence of public shootings in malls, schools, government buildings, etc...
It's funny how this Kyung Lah is high and mighty about her "moral codes" when it has been proven that she's a slut, especially with her getting fired from having an affair:
Note the section "KNBC Staffers Fired Over Affair":

CNN is going at it again:

what is next,the obvious mods for sims2 with sex and fallout 3.If anybody knows what im pointing to.
Typical fucking American's, always telling everyone else what to do.
Dont you people realise that if the rest of the world wanted to be like you, they would be already.
Go the fuck away and live your own hypocritical meaningless lives and leave the rest of the world alone.
Just because you dont like something, doesnt mean it is wrong.

Anything that angers CNN gets my stamp of approval! RapeAway!
I hope something bad happens to Kyra Phillips!
that's terrible. how could the japanese make a game about rape. what they should make is a game about picking up prostitutes, paying them for sex, and then killing them to get your money back.
lul lololol she though the british couple would be on her side and say it offends women and we should ban it etc. lololl lulululul
I wonder if it is wrong that when I saw the tag line, "the only way to win is to rape" I wanted to high five someone?
And the only way to win at Just Cause is to kill and create CHAOS! WTF does it matter as long as you keep it in FANTASY instead of REALITY!
It's a good thing that CNN got on this. You can't be having games out there that haven't been made in over a year. Good job CNN, way to do some hard hitting journalism on a game that came out 4 years ago, stopped being made 2 years ago, and hasn't been available from any mass retailer in the US.
Where are they getting copies? Unless they're flying over to japan to pick one up they're downloading them and breaking copyright laws.
That reporter get failed.

It's obvious the opinions of the sites moderators are biased.
I love how the chick in the video has the game on the computer next to her.
And Thank god for Lucy Kibble!
Look News people and Equality now someone on your own show that is a woman and defended it.
The battle of real life organizations and governments against imaginary 2D girls and (to recent extent) 3D rendered ones is quite fierce.
They should point on the doll where the naughty 2D loli girl touched them so they can get properly counseled.
Soon we will have crazed moral protesters burning drawing tablets, art materials, and pirated copies of Photoshop and 3D Studio Max in an attempt to destroy the source of this evil 2D/3D imaginary menace.
lol from the video of the CNN,
i can see they are using the English modded of the game. I bet the too download it as they can't be brought now.
Umm...how exactly do you win this game?
Well America is probably the biggest hypocrite in the world and other countries often call us out on it.
2:28 ya, nobody wants to talk to CNN because they just make you want to facepalm -.-''
Japan HAS to be OK!!!!
I don't have as much issue with traditional porn/hentai games existing.
However, I think anyone who is honest with themselves will admit that rape/sexual violence games like these are just repulsive to the extreme and demonstrate how callous and self-centered human beings are.
The fact that so many on this site are upset over the notion of a group standing up to oppose these sorts of sickening games speaks volumes of humankind's moral chasm.
Seriously NOT ALL hentai games is about raping and such, they just ignore this fact and I'm sure most hentai gamers don't really have an actual interest with real woman. And how about they cross-examine a raper and try to ask him "do you play hentai games Mr. Rapist?"
you not like the true so shut up and im not "american" japan is a peverte country so beat it
