This must be the awesomest news I've read today. Swedish women in Malmö have officially won the right to go to public pools with their boobies hanging out.

"According to Forsberg, some on the council had lobbied for wording which would have required women to keep their nipples covered, but Forsberg explained that attempting to enforce such a rule would have been too complicated.

"We don't define what bathing suits men should wear so it doesn't make much sense to do it for women. And besides, it's not unusual for men to have large breasts that resemble women's breasts," he said."

Okay it's not game related but quite interesting lol, I'm just wondering if the vote is a win for men in Malmö too? Hey man, you don't have to sneak peek at those boobies any more! They Are Free To View Now!

Seriously, we had read enough of blame on whatever video games or multiplayer online games, I bet most of us don't even give a fuck about their anxiety, or condemnation. However there are questions out there -- Are games really innocent? Or Does game addict really exist? Just like we love or hate, they blame games for a reason too.

I thought of this because I read an article earlier at Kotaku, where I tracked back to the original report by mainichi: Game addicts, what's a parent to do? They set several examples of game addiction, here we go:

While some find online games to have benefits, it is also true that the problem of students who become engrossed in online games and stop going to school has escalated in recent years.

One mother looked down as she spoke about her teenage son's game addiction. "Sometimes, he'll throw the remote control at the TV, overturn the dining table, bite my hand, or try to strangle me. It's enough to get me wondering if he'll kill me."

A third-year junior high school student, her son became obsessed with the online role-playing game MapleStory last fall. He had gotten good grades up to that point, and his parents, who had had h

The freak-out kid was so famous in last 3 days for his brother's leak of his madness on losing WoW account, however there is a debate on a question that whether the original video was fake or real. It seems no longer a big deal now when you watch the Japanese Remix version (displaying in the following video). Damnit, it ROCKs!

It made my day again, really good stuff, now who even cares if the original is real or not?

If you have no idea what is going on, read the notice of eroge studio Minori first in my previous article.

The recent decision by Japanese eroge studio Minori to close off its site to the outside world under the pretense of “defending our culture” has been clarified with a fuller explanation, which can be read below:

The original notice of barbarian exclusion:

minori official website.
This website cannot be browsed excluding Japan.

Some foreigners seem to be having an antipathy against EROGE.
Therefore, We prohibited the access from foreign countries, to defend our culture.
Sorry for you of the fan that lives in a foreign country.

minori Inc.

To which has been added some carping about how Japanese couldn’t possibly oppose their own politicians, and need foreigners to do it for them:

Why minori blocking foreign accesses?

We are little perplexing now because we received a lot of response about this issue from foreign people.

Now we will tell you the short detail about the reason why blocking you to this website, because of we, all Japanese EROGE makers were facing at the problem, the crisis of “Freedom of speech”.

Currently, The bill that allows to limiting the co

Minori, developer of adult PC titles like Bittersweet Fools and Angel Type, is digging in to protect itself from an onslaught of viewers outside Japan. Those trying to access the Minori site outside Japan will be greeted with the following message:

This website cannot be browsed excluding Japan.
Some foreigners seem to be having an antipathy against EROGE.
Therefore, We prohibited the access from foreign countries, to defend our culture.
Sorry for you of the fan that lives in a foreign country.

Accessing the site from Japan poses no problems.

These recent defensive measures from erotic game makers come in the wake of the Rapelay controversy and subsequent rape game banning. Other measures include changing the titles of upcoming releases. (Reported by Kotaku.com)

Wow, congratulations mmosite, new layout looks pretty cool. Back to today's topic, I find a nice one, the top5 most recognisable gaming icons.

Nike to sports, McDonald’s to hamburgers, Apple iPod to mp3 players; almost every major consumer industry has a handful of iconic companies that embody almost everything that industry is about. But what about the video gaming industry? An industry that has existed for decades, is the love of schoolkids everywhere and whose subject matter sparks the interest of art galleries, movies, the Guinness Book of World Records, must have icons of its own!

This list hopes to pick out the icons that not necessarily look the coolest or the most beautiful, but are recognisable and punchy like the Nike tick.

Number 5: The NES Controller

Everyone who plays games knows what the NES controller looks like, even if they haven’t used one! This highly unergonomic but punchy device began a revolution in gaming for the masses. While not the first gamepad, it was the first to take off and become popular.

Prior to the NES controller, gamers had two button joysticks, remote controls, even keyboards with teletype printers to receive game messages. The ease with

This guy, Daniel Petric shot his mother dead and wounded his father over a popular video game halo3 in last year, the reason he did this was because the parents took away the game from him. According to Fox 8 News Reporter yesterday morning the teen was sentenced, finally, 23 years to life.

Seems he doesn't deserve the hell ...Anyway here was the news report.

I hope you have noticed the declaims of the Defense attorneys (the following quotes)

Defense attorneys argued that Petric's youth and addiction to the game "Halo 3" made him less responsible for the shooting. They say he often played video games 18 hours a day with little food or sleep. They say he may have been so obsessed with the game, where players shoot alien monsters that have taken over the Earth, that he didn't think death was real.

"The playing of the video games and the reality of shooting somebody in his case was blinded, it was merged," defense attorney James Kersey told the court. "He had no thoughts during this process. During this time, he was blinded that his parents might be dead, that they might never come back."

"His addiction was so strong, was running ra

De-Andre Finley, a 11-year-old Mississippi boy has accidentally killed his nine-year-old brother with a shotgun after a fight over video game. According to Kenny Dickerson, the Marshall County Sheriff, "The younger brother allegedly got mad because he got beat at some video games and got the gun." at the same time, their father was outside mowing the lawn.

The older brother, De-Andre Finley, admitted the weapon automatically went off when the two tussled over it. The story coincides with police investigations which have stated the weapon was too long and too heavy for the young boy to fire. "That version we can live with because it's consistent with the evidence," the police added.

Police said it is unlikely the older brother will be charged because he is under 13, and "it appeared to be an accident anyway".

------------------------------------------------------------------------

Well, I have to say..it's weird, why the shotgun was put so close to the two boys, and gosh, loaded? His father should be responsible for his child's death. And another thing, accident? It may be, but since the older brother held the gun in his hands, I don't think&n

Again, the latest updates of Japan's sex gaming industry, seems some real action will be taken to deal with porn games now. However that's what I'm not willing to see.

Emboldened by their success in turning over the craven eroge industry, Japan’s own spineless politicians are once again obediently heeding international demands for a complete ban on artistic depictions of minors engaged in sexual activity.

The latest assault on the artistic freedoms guaranteed by the Japanese Constitution comes from the Komeito (”Clean Government Party”), which exclusively represents the interests of a Buddhist cult, the Sokka Gakkai, and consequently is a great fan of censorship and attempting to legislate public morality. UNICEF Japan honcho Agnes Chan herself is a member of the cult.

Responding to the usual outrageous international claims that Japan is causing child abuse and encouraging lolicon in other countries with its liberal laws on pornography, the Komeito obediently proclaimed that Japan should obey these demands:

“Being called ‘a child porn power’ is shameful and we must act to rectify this by an immediate revision of the law. The Diet must immediately
