It is now official …
The emergency EOCS meeting involving almost 100 representatives from various eroge companies has just ended, and the final conclusion is that rape games are now banned.
Basically, although it has already been decided that they’ll ban rape games, the exact regulations and definitions of what is okay and what isn’t will be worked out and refined from here on out.
So yes, an official board (Ethics Organization of Computer Software) has pass a ban on rape games but still it is not a law yet in Japan. Regulations will be worked out and ratings that will be passed on will be more stricter than ever.

I think this article and I guess the legislation should really be expanded to look at all video games. Why should any one government draw the line at this rapegame when there are so many others that advocate mass killing. That being said, I am sincerely tempted to try out this game, it sounds almost so ridiculous I can’t imagine it exists. I found an interesting discussion on the matter at Pandalous. It can be found here at http://www.pandalous.com/nodes/ban_on_violent_computer
I think that there should be limits on the CONTENT, but not to plot, because videogames are fast becoming the last venue of free speech.
