Crom doesn’t want your praise! If you praise him he’ll probably smite you for your weakness!

Makes me think the ESRB didn’t see the naked women in Conan on the PS3/360 or in God of War… whoops. Guess they’re not doing their job too well, eh? :)

Hopefully Nip will put in an appearance down under as well. I’m not totally confident though.

Shacknews is now reporting that Funcom made a mistake. Nipples should indeed be included in the USA version.

Crom be praised!

~~The cows in Asheron’s Call totally had udders. Remember kids, Lady Liberty hates human sex but is fine if bestiality turns you on.~~

Update: nipples for everyone, including the cows!

Why are video games held to a different standard than movies? A bare female chest would earn a movie a PC-13 or AA rating in North America, and around a 7+ to 11+ in Europe, not NC-17 or XXX. Is this, once again, based on the flawed notion that only small boys play video games and we need to protect them from the female form?

Wait, it only says “nipples”. What about *male* nipples? A Conan game without bare pectorals would be… um, highly odd indeed. Yet, a game that discriminates based on gender – isn’t that highly sexist? Are we *really* okay with our young daughters’ sexuality being screwed up by this incessant exposure of male glands?

Think of the children! Put a wifebeater on Conan!
