I along with thousands of other gamers are outraged and its due to a recent FOX news show that aired a few days ago..

Recently on FOX news, there was a report about how a game called MASS EFFECT has sexual situations and they had a pyschologist talking about how bad the game is, and how harmful it is to kids.

The problem with that reoprt was that  the game they were talking about is a 30 plus hour game that only has about a minute of flirting, with NO NUDITY . But FOX and the pyschologist Cooper Lawrence completely blew it out of proportion not knowing anything about the game. And the one game expert that was on there was cut off and not allowed to defend his point of view.

Here is the segment that im refering to, that offended gamers everywhere.

 But not only are gamers angry, but so is EA, the games publisher. Demanding an apology for the slander FOX did against the game. At first the FOX producer of that show blew them off, but now they want to invite EA onto the FOX news show. EA has not responded, and i dont blame them because we all know FOX will edit it or turn it around so that they dont apologize.

Point is since this was aired, the anger is just getting bigger. In a 2 day time period, the pyschologist books that were being sold on Amazon were flooded with poor review comments, Amazon has since removed many of those comments, but they are still being posted as we speak. 

Me personally im angry at this because those panel members, and that pyschologist were completely uninformed on the topic and did not even do any research on the subject matter.

Yea i agree that parents should be parents and not allow them to play certain games, but i hated that those panel members were bashing on a game that they did not know about and that didnt really have nudity.
