I could care less to be honest.If it offends me that much I wont buy the game. I must admit GTA : San Andreas didnt need it. As I'm sure many other games dont. There are many titles where its the intended purpose, ie Hentai, Adult Games. Even in a more comical sense - Leisure Suit Larry and Duke Nukem. Whilst I haven't played Adult Genre games, I know about them,and it's my choice not to buy them.Gaming companies should not feel pressured when they release a title with said explicit's in the game. If its the intended purpose for the game to involve such a Genre fine. Live with it, you don't have to buy it. The same can be said for 'unnecessary' violence. Bah, what bull crap, what's unnecessary about it, the fact certain people are offended by it and believe their point is more valid.Its not the issue should there be more sex in games, but if there is sex in games, does it enhance game play or is the genre applicable to the game play.

there shouldn't be sex in games because there are kids who are like age 13 below wandering what's that game and maybe in the future they would become rapist because of those sex games

How did kids manage to get there hands on a game of that genre should be the worry. Sex is a part of life, if people wish to be exposed to this sort of game, that's there choice. You're right in saying that children of a certain age should not perhaps be exposed to this as they don't quite fully understand it. That's why there are age classifications for games.A nephew of mine wanted GTA : San Andreas. He is only 11. I refused to buy it for him, not for the reason of sex, but because he wasn't old enough to fully understand the concept of the game. To say that all under-age buyers or consumers of said genre are going to grow up to be rapists is a gross generalisation. Perhaps, becuase they were exposed to this they may do, who knows. I don't think its an issue of should there be sex in games, but of how its monitored and distributed. For its indented purpose, and intended users you dont hear complaints. You only hear complaints when it fall into the wrong hands.there shouldn't be sex in games because there are kids who are like age 13 below wandering what's that game and maybe in the future they would become rapist because of those sex games

I don't think there should be any sex at all in games. I guess it's no use to say this since there is already too many games that contains explicit content.Now-a-days, kids are smarter on the internet(In a bad way).They EASILY make an account on YouTube or such watching content not suitable for their ages.

I think that sex in games is fine, if done in good tastes or had some significance. After all, a game is kind of like a reflection of life, and sex is a natural part of it.But sex being in games just for the sake of being in, with no other purpose whatsoever is just wrong. Unless it's a sex game.... but it would be redundant to even talk about that.

Depends on the game in question. If it adds to the storyline and plot, yeah, sounds great. Its always good to have some actual decent relationships in a game. I can also think of some instances where it would detract from the game. You ppl don't need to worry about pornographic tetris though, there is this thing called game ratings

I do not think that Sex in games is a necessary step in making the game better; there are so many ways to make a game's plot much better.So all in all, NO.

No, absolutely no. Having sexual intercourse in a game, just for the sake of it? Yeah, that's just not right.Nothing more to be said.

I feel that this question is kinda general for a forum, but I can say honestly while everyone is pointing fingers who blames the parents of the little idiots that don't make sure what there buying is of the propper content for their age? When i was a kid my mom knew what games i should be playing because they cared. We stuck to mario and simple stuff also if sex fits into a game it should be in there every one blams GTA for it's themes but it's what happens you find things like that in you're bigger citys even in small town you can find at least 1 hooker is you know where to look it adds depth to a very realistic world and I feel while certain games can effect children the ESRB does all it can to help and when it boils down to it the parents who didn't care are making a big deal about it beause it's their fault.

I don't think it's wrong, but if it further improves the plot of the story then why not if it's just there to have sex then definitely not lol

In the game Grand Theft Auto San Andreas, there was a Mod for the PC version that allowed the main guy to go have "coffee" at his girlfriends house, which turned into an intimate 'mini-game' if you can call it that. I happen to have the game for ps2 before the re-rating, Hehe.

I think there's plenty of sex in games already... honestly I thought this would be more like 'should there be less' than 'should there be more'. Eh, I think if it's pointless sex for the sake of sex, then no... that's a turn-off (or maybe I'm just picky, I like my porn to have a plot!). But... if there's a point, then why not.I'm kind of neutral on this, I don't care either way...Well as long as you don't fill an otherwise good game with pointless sex. Then I might get upset.

I don't really care, it's just eye-candy for the video gamers. It's not "really" happening, you're seeing computer binary code "make out". So it's not the real thing.

I don't think it really matters what kind of content developers want to put in their games. A rating system exists for a reason. If they want to put sex in video games, let em.

Haha, I clicked on this thinking that it`d be a "Is it alright to have sex in games?" but no, it`s "Whee, more sex in games!". Nice.More? I dunno. There are games made specifically for that out there, and if you want mixed genres... I think that what is there now is fine. It doesn`t really matter much to me either way because I like it real.

It isn't really nessecary to have sex in games, plus it is hard to pull off getting alot of sexual content and nudity in with out a AO rating coming from the videogame rating company, and most companies have codes not allowing AO ratings in.

I've never cared one way or another, but with God of War, I had a problem that it was pretty misogynistic about it. It was just this expression of dominance, and had no real reason to be there except to illustrate how manly this killing machine you played as was. Plus I had prude friends, so they can't play these awesome games just because the devs decided to put boobs on every damn boss.
