Gamespy reviews FO:BoS

Best quote from the PS2 review:

Brotherhood also has a chesty prostitute for hire, but you don't see or hear the beast with two backs; all you get for your ten bottle caps (the currency of Brotherhood's world) is a black screen and a few vibrations of the Dual Shock 2. Between this bizarrely demure sequence and the unspeakable carnage of Manhunt, we can safely assume that no amount of graphically violent content, and any amount of graphically sexual content, will earn the never-issued, banned-from-retail AO rating. Congrats to the ESRB for coming up with a system just as broken as the MPAA's!

Taking a swipe at the game AND the ratings system at the same time... how quaint! The whole ratings issue will be saved for another day, on the general comments forum, but I thought that one stuck out like a turd in a punch bowl... :wink:
 
Oh, I dunno, slip the controller down your pants during it and you might get the desired effects... :roll:
 
The first thing I thought when I saw that was "Oh shit, did they get that from Grand Theft Auto? Verrry original. Why not kill the hooker and get your bottlecaps back?"

EDIT: Almost forgot to mention. According to a CNN/Money "Game Over" column, the ESRB issued exactly 16 AO ratings: 15 for graphic sex and one for graphic sex and violence. If you want, post a thread about this on the general gaming forum: I'd be happy to reply. :wink:
