A banned 2004 PS2 and Xbox game with a queasy premise could land you in legal trouble if you own a copy.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Video games<\/a>\u00a0have been no stranger to controversy over the years, with many titles being subjected to accusations of corrupting youth or leading to violence due to their content.<\/p>\n

While for most games this has ultimately proven false, one game released on PS2 and Xbox ended in disaster when new details about its production emerged after its release.<\/p>\n

The game was originally released in 2004, but you will not find it available in any store, and it has also been banned from being streamed on\u00a0Twitch<\/a>.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s called\u00a0The Guy Game<\/em>, and was released by TopHeavy Studios.<\/p>\n

The premise was that it was a trivia game where up to to four players can answer questions.<\/p>\n

If they answer questions correctly then they can glimpse an image of a topless woman, starting censored and becoming less so as they earn points, until it\u2019s completely uncensored.<\/p>\n

But while the nudity and objectification was viewed by many as distasteful, and were heavily criticised, it\u2019s not enough to get someone in legal trouble.<\/p>\n

When the producers of\u00a0The Guy Game\u00a0<\/em>were sourcing the footage to use for the game they went to a spring break party in South Padre Island, Texas.<\/p>\n

There they approached young women attending the party and after checking ID,\u00a0paid<\/a>\u00a0them $20 to answer a trivia question and take their top off if they got it wrong.<\/p>\n

After the game\u2019s release, one player had what must have been a hugely uncomfortable experience when he saw that his own sister had featured on it.<\/p>\n

The girl, who was not publicly named and referred to as \u2018Jane Doe\u2019 in\u00a0court<\/a>\u00a0proceedings, raised a lawsuit against TopHeavy.<\/p>\n

When the case was brought to court, it emerged that the girl had falsified certain details, including her date of birth.<\/p>\n

When she had posed, the girl had been just shy of her 18th birthday.<\/p>\n

This means that\u00a0The Guy Game\u00a0<\/em>included indecent images of an underage girl, though the court did not resolve the question of whether it constituted child abuse images.<\/p>\n

Jane Doe won the case, and an injunction was granted ceasing distribution of the game, and it was pulled from sale.<\/p>\n

TopHeavy responded by posting on their website: \u201cThe Man has decided that our fun and hilarious presentation of spring break revelry just wasn\u2019t appropriate for the world of gaming.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
