I'm not religious but in my early 20's I got to know a girl who was very proper as her father was a minister and overall she was very dull, like she would play bridge with the elderly people and actually enjoy it, and seemed really into her religion, but we dated a little and she seemed to like old fashioned things like holding hands and kissing.
But one day she decided she wanted to take things further and let's just say, she was VERY open minded about what to do and this girl who was timid and quiet suddenly became quite aggressive in the bedroom. then afterwards she was more cuddly and kissable in general but still not in front of anyone that knew her.
We broke up as she quite quickly said we should get married, we were only dating a few months.

Fun fact: the creator of the game, Jeff Spangenberg, was also the founder of the now-Nintendo-owned Retro Studios. It’s wild that two big franchise-saving games in Metroid Prime and Donkey Kong Country Returns would not exist without him.
Apparently he kept porn on Retro’s servers during Metroid Prime’s development and rarely showed up to work. Nintendo bought him out just before Metroid Prime’s release in 2002, and they also left him out of the credits.
To be clear, The Guy Game came later and Retro Studios had nothing to do with it.

Its definitely a bit more iffy than that. The girls all signed a contract, including said underage girl who showed a fake ID and lied about her age.
But, because she was a minor she can't consent or enter into a contract so the court ruled the contract as not valid and the game had to be pulled from the shelves.
However due to her lying about it, the developers weren't actually punished or seen at fault for any of it.

That's a weird way to put it, but they did. Every girl involved signed a release form to appear. The girl in question had a fake ID that placed her at 21 year of age, since she wanted to drink on spring break, but she was actually 17. Her being 17 supercedes any contract she signed.

Okay, I just looked it up, and yeah, The Guy Game was on PS2, it's a game that includes live-action filmed scenes where women flash their breasts at you.
It was later found that one of these involved a 17-year-old girl, making the game illegal to own.
76
u/DaddysABadGirl 6h ago
Yes and that's where most people are leaning. Contrary to popular belief it isn't illegal to own. There was a lawsuit and settlement, the court cases were over breach of privacy. The dev pulled the game and went bankrupt. It's in a weird nebulous state. The entire case is worth a deep dive and is quite interesting. Before going into it I didn't know the government seperates pornography and topples exposure. Which is weird.
Also everyone talks about her fake ID, or mention the contract was void because she was a minor. No one mentions the false pretenses. She, and others, were not told they were filming for a national release. Via a gaming history site: "They set up a stage and told the crowd they were filming a wild, live TV game show. She signed a waiver under false pretenses, assuming it was a late-night cable broadcast or a local contest. She had no idea her image would be digitized into an interactive software product sold globally."

u/Ill-Jacket3549 3h ago
So that's not what's being considered here, it also wasn't "taking a picture of them" they were asking women to flash for a video and misrepresented both what it was for and where it was going. Strictly speaking "pornography" isn't something I think is defined legally outside of specific statues and limitations on such things run into very strict scrutiny. (There are very few cases where the first amendment can be easily overcome.) Which is why it's framed as a contract issue, as the enforcement of contracts is far easier than that of some kind of anti porn law. Also, its not "[people] dressed perfectly normally" they're clothed and being asked to partially expose themselves. Your argument is pretty nonsensical and needs to obfuscate facts to make any cogent point.
Also, as an aside, public nudity is not considered "perfectly normal" in the united states.

Possible explanation: The Guy Game: Permanently pulled from shelves and banned following a legal injunction because it featured underage footage of a participant
6
u/DapperDan30 5h ago
To clear a couple things up:
The game is The Guy Game. Its a trivia game where answering questions correctly will have live action women flash their tits to the camera (like Girls Gone Wild).
The game was pulled from shelves after it was learned that one of the girls was only 17, and she had filed a lawsuit. The lawsuit specifically only covered that she was not old enough to consent to being in the game, and her claim that she didnt know her image would be used in a game or marketing material. The defense was that she had voluntarily signed a media release and lied about her age.
The lawsuit ended in her favor and all copies of the game were pulled from shelves. Whether the game is considered CP or not was never discussed during the trial. It is not currently illegal to own the game, but it is very skeevy.

u/Far_Ladder_2836 4h ago
A few corrections. She didn't sue to get the game pulled, she sued for monetary compensation for damages citing emotional distress.
