A forthcoming "Frat Party" WiiWare title from JV Games aimed to bring the college drinking game beer pong to the Nintendo's console. But the game has come under fire from critics and brewed a major controversy.

Hilarious, I don't know which was worse: This, or Oprah complaining about the "BJ" frenzy in North America. So what would you prefer dummies, that the kids sleep around and actually purchase booze illegally instead?

Over-sheltering kids doesn't make them better off in the longrun, it usually makes them worse. The only thing I agree with is that the game should be 18+ given that it is fairly adult-oriented content.

Oh well.

I wonder what would happen if the people that are organizing all these petitions against games actually put the energy they used on creating and circulating a petition into actually raising their children right. People are getting so lazy these days, they just want the government to raise their children for them. I guess they feel the government is raising their children badly by allowing this game and rating it Teen. Seriously, people need to stop bitching and moaning and crying about stupid **** like this and just solve the problem themselves. If you don't want your kid to play a silly game like that then don't let them and actually explain to them why, if you just say no without a reason it will make them determined to play it. Why don't they cry about things that are more important, like gas prices!

never heard of that in my life and can't really care if it is released or not as long as it has the appropriate age limit, even then as usual parents will buy it for their kids anyway, defeating the purpose.
