5 video games so controversial that people wanted them to be forbidden

Video games have a long history on many generations now, and although they gradually gained popularity, there has always been a segment of society that criticized the influence of the game, especially on young consumers. But there have been games that have pushed so much the limits, were so completely offensive or have aroused so much indignation, that the backlaughter they sparked was particularly intense. In many cases, people even tried to prohibit them. Come with Cogconnected while we take a look at some of the most controversial video games of all time to show their pixelized content on players screens over the years.

Custer s Revenge is a legendary game for all the bad reasons. In the early 1980s, porn providers working under the name of mystical tried to take advantage of the popular Atari 2600 console by launching what is often cited as one of the worst games of history. You embody General Custer, the real loser of the battle of Little Bighorn, while walking, naked, through the screen to a Native American woman tied up and also naked. The game is to sexually attack the woman after dodging arrows ... and that s about everything. Combining the Misogyny and the most ugly racism as few games have never done it, Custer s Revenge has (unfortunately) sold for a while before being removed from the shelves because of the indignation of understandable public.

It is not difficult to understand why hatred, destructive developers creations, has been so controversial. You play a mass murderer in a manic mission to kill as many innocent civilians as possible. From the first news of his development, hated was attacked by critics on all fronts, who wondered why a game with such a vile premise had even been created in the first place. When leaving on PC, the game was first removed from Steam, then reintegrated with an Adult Only label, guaranteeing practically that it would always remain an obscure title. Perhaps worse than anything, hatred was only a very bad game; Our critic Paul at the time rejected it as boring, repetitive and simply not fun . Well, at the very least, it was definitely a game with a suitable title.

While the series of games Dead Or Alive has always voluntarily pushed back the limits with its fans service featuring busty and slightly dressed girls, it is not the problem that enrolled in this list. This is the VR mode for Dead Or Alive Xtreme 3 of 2016 which really pushed things to a new shocking level and, frankly, has crossed the line. This put the players in the role of touching virtually girls against their will, accompanied by sounds of their clear protests and discomfort. Our own writer Shawn PetraSchuk, who has never hesitated to denounce sexism in the industry, got rid of what he called the mode of sexual assault of the VR version, which went beyond. usual voyeurism and equivalent to a violent and aggressive act. Promotion of sexual assault. Apparently, he was not the only one to feel that because Koei Tecmo decided not to go out the game in the West due to many reviews.

The Super Seduer series, Richard La Ruina, was another title accused of promoting rape culture by critics. You put in the shoes of a man trying to drag various women under the tutelage of an expert Pick-up artist , the PC FMV game was at some point called the sorded game of the world . The questionable premise, combined with a lot of what many call pornographic scenes, has aroused the anger of players and game platforms. Out of Steam in 2018, the original game saw its PS4 exit canceled by Sony because of a controversy, and Steam rejected the famous Super Seduer 3. Later, Nintendo decided not to bring the series on the switch, Feeling maybe the series does not match his family image.

Title at the origin Sacred Agony, this independent game has actually started with some promise, making you embody a soul traveling through hell and presenting an impressive and imaginative artistic design. But during his eventual exit as simply Agony, he seemed to have been precipitated and devoid of most of the first creativity players. Instead of imaginative representations of hell and an interesting story, Agony has just talked about free sex, nudity and old ultra-violence, creating a foul-boring product, ugly and actually boring . In addition to this, the sometimes disturbing visuals have earned Agony a rare Adult Only rating by the ESRB, forcing developers to mitigate them in order to be approved for the consoles. This is an example of a game that has taken the lazy way to rely on the shock value to cover its bad execution.
