[NEWS] SMACKDOWN! PS2 GAME BLASTED IN THE UK

There's currently some controversy in the UK over the new WWE game
'Smackdown: Here Comes The Pain' as reported by the Birmingham Evening
Mail newspaper. A Midland MP and a rape counseling charity have blasted
WWE over the option of the 'Bra and Panties' match, which the object of
the match is to undress your opponent. "It's very lacking in taste,"
said Caroline Spelman, Tory MP for Meriden. She said that the game is
currently being marketed with this feature and according to her it's
"leaving a bad taste in the mouth." "This game is degrading to women,"
said Maggie Williams, project manager of the Birmingham-based Rape and
Sexual Violence Project. "It's giving people, particularly children and
teenagers, the message that it's okay to attack women, which is very
wrong." Williams also fears that kids playing the game may copy what
they see in the bra and panties match and do the thing in real life! "To
me this screams pornography. I think it should be banned and a review
carried out on computer game content."
