[QUOTE="Richard B, post: 14194, member: 306"] BBB also faces another obstacle - the sexually explicit content and copious depictions of alcohol use would make this an "M" rating. This is fine if an "M" rating is inevitable (a "T" GTA ain't gonna happen), but in TPA's case it would only shrink their market of potential customers. FS evidently agrees, going as far as hacking the roms to remove the swear words from MM, even though these are bleeped anyway in all official releases, just on the off chance that someone will hack it and remove the censorship. While BBB isn't the first game to feature innuendo (Scared Stiff is loaded with it - especially the good and bad dead heads), in most other cases it is innocent enough (or maintains sufficient plausible deniability) to keep it in the "T" territory. However, BBB's tube dancer alone likely pushes things too far. Most parents I know might not mind their child playing SS, as the sexual references would probably go right over their little heads (if not, it's not the game's fault), but the "porno moans" and "sexually charged voice" issuing the instructions during the tube dancer mode will probably upset parents.
