I agree with the rapist. It's just a game. And the people who play these kind of games know that too. Hell, if they ban this kind of violence in games, then they should ban other violent games like diablo 3, counter strike, and starcraft 2! the fools…

I never encouraged anything of the sort. I just think it's strange to illegalize such a thing. There are violent games and pornography out there, so where do you draw the line? It isn't harming anyone or turning them into "deviants", seeing as rape isn't so much deviant behavior as it is an act of violence and possession inherent to us and shown through history. Basically it's illegal because they "don't ike it".

Killing someone in a game is okay. Raping and fucking hookers should be too. You need some consistency there.

Don't you think that it's a little disturbing? Games like this only exist for sexual gratification through fantasy, so why should anyone want to encourage the fantasy of rape? I mean I'm fine with porn, good fine have as much porn as you like. But please don't encourage unhealthy fantasies in the population; rape, goru, or underage I don't think that it should be allowed.

Fine that they're outraged, but games like these haven't "caused" any violence in Japan. They've been around for years, and there are a ton of various sexual outlets SO MUCH SO that the birthrate is DECLINING. Yeah, that sounds like a recipe for violence. If you've done your homework, you'd know that the most violent countries have a population demographic that looks like a pyramid.. that is, and overcrowd of young, aggressive males compared to everyone else.

Not only that, but correlation isn't causation, and for one, the problems within Japan don't compare to the problems in America do they now?

Rape exists, and will always exist as long as violence exists. It's no coincidence that there are plenty of rapes in wartime.

That being said, I think games like these are pathetic. But I can't imagine why they should be illegal.
