The series was also attacked by fundamentalist Christian groups, who argued that it promoted Satanic themes.

1997 Shadow Warrior PC, Mac, iOS 3D Realms Controversial for "insensitive" and "inauthentic" depictions of East Asian society and culture, to which 3D Realms responded, saying that they did not intend to make a racist game but had deliberately used a melange of Asian culture in order to create a "fun game" which "didn't take itself too seriously" and parodied "bad kung fu movies".

Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas was originally rated "Mature" in the U.S., but was reviewed and re-rated "Adults Only" after controversy surrounding a fanmade Hot Coffee mod which unlocked a hidden sex scene (which was in the game's code, but left out of the final version). It was again re-rated "Mature" after Rockstar Games removed this scene from the game's code.[24]​ In Grand Theft Auto IV: The Lost and Damned, one mission features full frontal male nudity, while in Grand Theft Auto V, one mission sees the character Trevor Philips torturing another character in several different ways, including waterboarding, pulling out teeth and administering electrical shocks to the nipples. Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars featured a drug-dealing mini-game.

1998 Thrill Kill PS1 Virgin Interactive After Electronic Arts acquired the assets of Virgin Interactive in mid-1998, it quickly cancelled the release of Thrill Kill (which was due to be released in time for the holiday season) due to objections over the game's high level of violent content.[cita requerida]

2000s

editar
Release date Title Platform Developer/Publisher Reason(s)
2000 Dance Dance Revolution Solo Arcade Konami In 2002, a local arcade in San Diego, California removed a Solo 2000 machine after members of the local "Youth Advocacy Coalition" complained that the background movies of selected songs contained images that could promote drug and alcohol abuse, such as a scantily clad nurse, pills in "I'm Alive" and alcoholic drinks appearing in "Club Tropicana". The machine was replaced by a mix which did not contain the imagery.[25]​
2000 Daikatana PC Ion Storm A highly controversial advertisement regarding John Romero's involvement with the game, which caused an equally highly publicized outrage.
2000 Soldier of Fortune PC, Dreamcast, PS2 Raven Software In 2000, after receiving a complaint from a member of the public about the explicit content of the game, the British Columbia Film Classification Office investigated and decided the violence, gore and acts of torture were not suitable for persons under 18 years of age. In a controversial decision, the game was labeled an "adult motion picture" and was rated as a pornographic film. In Germany, the game was placed on the Index List of the Federal Department for Media Harmful to Young Persons.
2000 Perfect Dark N64, Xbox 360, Xbox One (Rare Replay) Rare, Nintendo, Microsoft Studios (now Xbox Game Studios) As the first M-rated game published by Nintendo, the release of Perfect Dark was met with controversy since Nintendo - at least at the time - was famous for family-friendly video game franchises like Pokémon and Mario.[26]​
2001 Conker's Bad Fur Day N64, Xbox One (Rare Replay) Rare, Nintendo, Microsoft Studios (now Xbox Game Studios) Controversial for its "over-the-top" and "lewd" humor.[27]​
2001 Tear Ring Saga PS1 Tirnanog The game, whose development was spearheaded by Shouzou Kaga, the creator of the Fire Emblem series, was subject to legal actions both during and after development by Nintendo, which owned the Fire Emblem intellectual property (partly due to the game being released for a competitor console). However, Nintendo was ultimately unable to stop the development or the sales of the game. Initially titled Emblem Saga during development, the game's name and other features were later changed to remove all direct references to Fire Emblem.[28]​
2002 Shadow Man: 2econd Coming PlayStation 2 Acclaim An attempt to promote this video game involved placing advertisements on deceased people's gravestones.[29]​

2003 Dead or Alive Xtreme Beach Volleyball Xbox Tecmo Many critics have commented that the game's use of female bodies is often ridiculous at best, and some have found it offensive.[34]​
2003 Whiplash PlayStation 2, Xbox Crystal Dynamics The game generated some controversy over the animal cruelty, mainly by the RSPCA.[cita requerida]
2003 Laden VS USA Panyu Gaming Electronic Co. The game was based on the September 11 attacks and the packaging used a 9/11 photograph.[35]​[36]​
2004 The Sims 2 PC EA Games A player-made mod allowed for the blur effect that appears when a character is nude to be removed. However, the nude Sims are featureless.[37]​
2004 JFK: Reloaded PC Traffic Software The player is given the role of Lee Harvey Oswald as he assassinates U.S. President John F. Kennedy. Criticized for its controversial content matter in recreating the assassination and was condemned by a spokesman for Senator Ted Kennedy as "despicable".[38]​
2004 The Guy Game PC, PlayStation 2 Topheavy Studios/Gathering of Developers An adult trivia game that treated winners to full motion videos of young women in bikinis. One of the women that was part of the footage was unaware that she would be appearing in the game, nor was said woman in an age of consent when the video was filmed. In the subsequent lawsuit against Topheavy, Gathering of Developers, Microsoft, and Sony, an injunction banned further sales of the game. Topheavy however, released an edited version (removing footage of the woman in question) that added new footage and was later published as an interactive DVD title.[39]​
2005 Super Columbine Massacre RPG! PC Danny Ledonne The game simulates the events of the Columbine High School massacre, having the player take on the roles of Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold and reenacting the massacre.[40]​[41]​[42]​[43]​

2006 Bully PS3, Xbox 360, PS2, Wii, iOS, Android, Shield Android TV, Shield Tablet, Shield Portable Rockstar Games (Rockstar Vancouver) (Take-Two Interactive) Based upon its title, it was perceived that Bully glorified bullying. That the main character Jimmy could also kiss another boy was a matter of controversy.[49]​ Classification boards generally restricted Bully to a teenage audience: the US-based Entertainment Software Rating Board (ESRB) classified the game with a T rating,[50]​ the British Board of Film Classification gave it a 15 rating, the Australian Classification Board rated it M,[51]​ and the New Zealand OFLC restricted it to persons 13 years of age and over. In 2007, Yahoo! Games listed it as one of the top ten controversial games of all time.[52]​
2006 The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Xbox 360, PC, PS3 Bethesda Softworks Re-rated to "Mature" by the ESRB after a third-party mod revealed a nude topless corpse hidden in the game's data files. While the corpse did not warrant a re-rating of the game in and of itself, upon review, the ESRB noted that the game contained much more explicit violence than had been submitted to them in the original rating submission.[53]​
2006 Hitman: Blood Money PC, PS2, Xbox, Xbox 360, PS3 IO Interactive Excessive violence and assassinations; magazine ads for the game featured pictures depicting murder victims.[54]​

2006 Resistance: Fall of Man PS3 Insomniac Games The Church of England objected to the game's use of Manchester Cathedral's interior as a backdrop during a gun battle, and called for the game to be withdrawn or for the cathedral to be removed from the game.[62]​
2006 RapeLay PC Illusion Soft Rape is a core part of the gameplay, as the player takes on the role of a chikan who stalks - and subsequently rapes - a mother and her two daughters, the latter two of whom are underage. Three years after its initial release, significant controversy was raised in the UK Parliament and elsewhere, and Equality Now eventually pressured its distributor to withdraw distribution of it in Japan.[63]​
2006 Rule of Rose PS2 Punchline The Mayor of Rome called for the game to be banned from Italy, saying children "have the right to be shielded from violence".[64]​ The then European Union justice and security commissioner wrote an open letter condemning the game for "obscene cruelty and brutality". An Italian magazine, Panorama, claimed that in order to win the game players must bury a girl alive, which the game's European publisher disputed.[65]​ On the UK release day, the publisher announced that Rule of Rose would not be published in the UK, despite the game being approved for release by the Pan European Game Information (PEGI) and Video Standards Council regulatory bodies.[66]​
2007 BioShock Xbox 360, PC , PS3, iOS 2K Games An article in The Patriot Ledger, the local paper of developer Irrational Games,[67]​ argued that the game is "testing the limits of the ultra-violent gaming genre with a strategy that enables players to kill characters resembling young girls."[68]​ The game presents an ethical choice to players, whether to kill 'Little Sisters' for extra abilities or save them and receive less. President of 2K Boston Ken Levine defended the game as a piece of art, stating "we want to deal with challenging moral issues and if you want to do that, you have to go to some dark places".[69]​ Jack Thompson took issue with advertisements for the game appearing during WWE SmackDown's airtime, writing to the Federal Trade Commission and stating that M-rated games should not be advertised when large numbers of under-17s are watching.[70]​
2007 Manhunt 2 PS2, PSP, PC, Wii Rockstar Games Manhunt 2 has been labeled as possibly the most violent video game ever made and is infamous for being one of only four video games to have received an "Adults Only" rating due to violence, with the other three being The Punisher, Hatred, and Agony. Further controversy surrounds the Wii version due to the fact that it actually simulates the violence through motion control, causing it to be dubbed a "murder simulator".[13]​[71]​
2007 Mass Effect PS3, Xbox 360, PC BioWare Falsely accused by evangelical blogger Kevin McCullough of containing "rape and sodomy", which later led to the removal of McCullough's blog entry on Townhall.com. The game was featured on the Fox News Channel following the controversy,[72]​ with host Martha MacCallum, which included the headline "full graphic sex".[73]​ In actuality, the game's most explicit content is an indirect "sideboob" shot of a humanoid alien breast.[74]​
2007 Mario Party 8 Wii Nintendo Use of the phrase "Turn the train spastic! Make this ticket tragic!" by the character Kamek caused controversy in the United Kingdom, where the word spastic is considered offensive (which is the same issue that Mind Quiz raised). This led to a recall of the game; it was later re-released with the word changed to erratic.[75]​
2008 Spore PC Maxis Spore's use and implementation of SecuROM digital rights management, including the game's activation policies, was subject to widespread criticism and lawsuits; the game was listed as the most pirated game of 2008.[76]​[77]​[78]​[79]​[80]​
2008 Muslim Massacre PC Eric 'Sigvatr' Vaughn The game's contents and subject have been the subject of strong negative response; a spokesperson for the Muslim Council of Britain said "The makers of this 'game' and the ISPs (Internet service providers) who are hosting it should be quite ashamed of themselves. Anti-Muslim prejudice is already on the increase and needs to be challenged and not reinforced through tasteless and offensive stunts like this."[81]​
2008 Invaders! Douglas Edric Stanley An art game exhibited at the 2008 Games Convention in Leipzig. It represents the September 11 attacks in the style of Space Invaders. Players move their bodies to move the cannon and use arm movements to fire.[82]​ Like the original Space Invaders, death (game over) is inevitable.[83]​ Many people considered it tasteless and inappropriate, and Taito threatened legal action for unauthorized use of Space Invaders content.[84]​ The creator later pulled the game.
2008 Silent Hill: Homecoming PS3, PC, Xbox 360 Double Helix Games The game was banned and a rating refused in Australia and Germany for extreme violence and disturbing images which included graphic sexuality, nudity, copious blood sprays, decapitations, partially dismembered corpses, and numerous scenes of attacks, fights, torture and death.[85]​ The Australian version was subsequently released with the MA15+ rating and censored graphics, while the Japanese release was cancelled altogether.[cita requerida]
2008 LittleBigPlanet PS3 Media Molecule Lyrics from a licensed song, "Tapha Niang", were removed due to fears that Muslims would be offended, on the basis that it allegedly contained words from the Quran. This led to controversy about the removal itself.[86]​
2008 Too Human Xbox 360 Silicon Knights The game was revealed to being developed using a stolen version of Unreal Engine 3, following a successful counter-suit by Epic Games (makers of the Unreal Engine), Silicon Knights having initially sued Epic Games for "breach of contract".[87]​[88]​ In November 2012, the counter-suit was ruled in favor of Epic Games, forcing Silicon Knights to recall and destroy all copies of the game and another Unreal Engine-developed game, X-Men: Destiny, as well as cancelling other titles that had been planned to use the engine.[89]​[90]​
2008 Limbo of the Lost PC Majestic Studios The game's use of plagiarized assets from other games and movies prompted publishers, Tri Synergy, to stop publishing the game.[91]​
2009 MadWorld Wii PlatinumGames [cita requerida]
2009 Resident Evil 5 PS3, Xbox 360, PC, PS4, Xbox One, Shield Android TV, Shield Portable, Shield Tablet, Nintendo Switch Capcom The game came under controversy for a pre-release trailer that contains scenes of racism,[92]​ according to Newsweek journalist N'Gai Croal in an April 2008 interview. He also stated that organizations and retailers would object to the game and that it would cause controversy on release.
2009 Saw PS3, Xbox 360, PC Konami Several news publishings stated that the game's only purpose was to torture and kill people in violent ways with no sense of restraint or morality whatsoever. Some editorials called it "depraved and inhumane" and stated that "Konami should be ashamed".[93]​ It was also listed in the "Top ten most controversial games of 2009".[94]​
2009 Left 4 Dead 2 Xbox 360, PC (Steam) Valve The cover art in the UK had to be altered due to a potentially offensive hand gesture being depicted.[95]​ The game was initially banned in Australia for its excessive violence and gore, but the uncensored version was later rated R18+ in 2014.[96]​ The game's New Orleans setting so soon after Hurricane Katrina was considered "a bad call".[97]​
2009 Fat Princess PlayStation 3

PlayStation Portable 		Titan Studios Critics argued that the game concept and title were hostile to women.[98]​
2009 Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 PS3, Xbox 360, PC, Infinity Ward A optional mission in the game entitled "No Russian" has the player assume control of an undercover Central Intelligence Agency operative, joining a group of Russian nationalist terrorists who perpetrate an airport massacre. The player is given the option to skip it at any point,[99]​[100]​ and a message before the campaign also notifies players of the disturbing material. The game was discussed briefly in the House of Commons of the United Kingdom after the issue was brought to the attention of MP Keith Vaz, a longtime opponent of violence in video games, with fellow Labour Party politician Tom Watson arguing that the level was "no worse than scenes in many films and books" and criticising Vaz for "collaborating with the Daily Mail to create moral panic over the use of video games".[101]​ The mission was made optional before release[102]​ and removed from the game entirely.[103]​

Activision later removed the Favela multiplayer map from Modern Warfare 2 following complaints from Muslim gamers, which shows picture frames on the second floor bathroom of one building within Favela. When viewed through a scoped weapon, the frames contain a quote from Muhammad that translates to "Allah is beautiful and He loves beauty", according to Islam Today. One of the paintings is located directly above a toilet.[104]​
