Giants With Clothing

As many people know Giants: Citizen Kabuto went gold a little while ago. Well Jason over at BluesNews got word from the publishers yesterday that after putting out all those screenshots of the game and all the previews, the decision has been made to put clothing on the formerly topless Delphi character, and they have changed all the blood from red to green. Interesting that they just didnt go with a "Violence toggle" or something of that nature. Anyone think other games may start going this route? Are those 'murder simulator' accusations finally making a difference? update by Maarten: Gamers.com has received word from Interplay that a blood patch will be released, however no word on a "skin" patch. Stomped also has some comments from Planet Moon's Tim Williams.

    This COMPLETELY FUCKING BLOWS. God how fucking lame....what the fuck is wrong with a password controlled "nudity/violence" setting?? I mean for fuck's sake UT has a violence setting. All Giants needs to do is have the stuff off by default and have some obscure console change to bring it back in. Fucking idiots....the nudity, for once, actually fitted into this game rather than being superfluous titillation, I mean for fuck's sake they are BLUE SEA-DWELLING WITCHES not pr0n models. And violence, every fucking game has blood and violence....I hardly think it's an issue in a game with exotic islands, giants, weirdo fucking monsters, sea-dwelling witches....it's hardly fucking SOF is it?? For me and everyone else with half a fucking brain, semi-nudity and violence are appropriate features that fit in with the setting and nature of the game SO WHY THE FUCK DOES THE COMPANY HAVE TO FUCK AROUND WITH THEM??

    I was really looking forward to this game but fuck me if I am buying it before someone h4x0rs these genuine features back into it.



    hmmm maybe they are scared the game is so crap they have to sell it to toddlers?

    If you think what's happened to Giants is bad, you ain't seen nothing. Your masters have much more serious things to keep from you than a game character's blue tits. Check this out:


    Dec. 6, 2000 | LOS ANGELES (AP) -- USA Network canceled production of a television movie about two drug-tampering deaths after a major pharmaceutical advertiser complained it was inappropriate.

    The cable network said Wednesday it pulled the plug on "Who Killed Sue Snow?" on Nov. 22, five days before filming was to begin in British Columbia. The movie was based on the 1986 deaths of two Seattle-area residents who took cyanide-laced Excedrin.

    The cancellation followed objections by Johnson & Johnson, whose subsidiary manufactures Tylenol.

    The New Brunswick, N.J.-based company threatened to pull all advertising at the network and ask other drug companies to do the same, the Los Angeles Times reported Wednesday, citing anonymous sources involved in the project.
