Chapter 318: The American Pie game is on the shelves in North America
For the "American Pie" game submitted by the Japanese company SZone, according to the general process of the regulations, it will take at least a week for 3DO to review the content, use special software to speed up the game, and quickly browse it, at least know what type of game it is, so that it is convenient to add to the 3DO game list and recommend it for sale.
In North America, there are no ratings for adult and violent gore games, but Nintendo and Sega have limited the release of adult games on their platforms due to their own image concerns.
But 3DO is different, even EA itself is secretly developing adult and violent games, coupled with Feng Qi's Jin Yuan opening, "American Pie" quickly passed the first review of 3DO.
Anyway, it's just going through the motions, putting on a show, everyone is busy before Christmas, who has time to double-check the full details of "American Pie"?
Besides, this SZone company has cooperated with 3DO, and there was a game of "Love Season" half a year ago, following the trend to learn "Heartbeat Memories", which is a love development game for European and American heroes and heroines, the content is very provocative, the character model has nudity, and there are also very ambiguous dating scenes, but overall it is not too excessive.
The game "Love Season" has sold more than 100,000 people, and the two sides have cooperated very happily, and now SZone has developed a sequel of similar types, so Panasonic Game Department has not embarrassed them at all.
After Feng Qi got the 3DO distribution license, he immediately arranged for the American factory to make the disc, and then with the help of a group of mysterious people, it only took two days. "American Pie" was spread to all the game stores of EA and 3DO, and put it on the shelves.
20,000 sets of games were released in North America as soon as possible, and the second batch of 20,000 sets is being urgently produced, and Feng Qi's Hgame sales plan is being implemented step by step.
……
It's Christmas holidays again, it's a working day and my parents aren't home.
This year's Sega Carnival has not yet started, and a large number of good games have not yet been released, Pete looks at a few boxes of old games at home, feeling a little greasy and boring.
Two years ago, he thought FlappyBird was fun. But now he's two years older. Thinking that he was past that childish age, he had recently begun to grow hair on his lower body, and he had his first dream some time ago, and he vaguely knew what he was supposed to do.
"Hi Lawrence. How about lending me your treasured videotapes? Pete called his friend Lawrence.
Lawrence shouted, "Pete! What's the point of watching a videotape! Don't you know? The most popular American pie right now! ”
“American-Pie…… Lawrence. I want the tapes I watched last time at your house. I don't want a pie! Pete lowered his voice and yelled, he was itching now!
Lawrence quickly dropped a sentence: "Dirt old hat!" Come to my house now! ”
Hanging up, Pete quickly dressed up. Hop on your bike and run to Lawrence's house.
As soon as he entered, he found that several of his best friends were sitting on the sofa in the living room, looking at the white men and women on the TV screen, each of whom leaned forward, stretched their necks, opened their mouths wide, and remained stunned.
"Oh! Hurry up, hurry up! The waiter is here! Hurry up and stop him and take the wine down! ”
"Hurry up and go back to Lily! Idiot! Don't you know how to control the arrow keys? Be careful! Don't bump into someone, you will spill the wine when you touch other people! ”
"Drink it to her, and it's just one cup away! oh-yeah! Just reached her high point, and the conditions are met! Hurry up and take her into the room! ”
"Gieses Giesers...... Play music, there's a tape recorder next to the bed, click on it! Oh my gosh, she's dancing too! ”
"Oh buy karma ......"
"Oh......"
"Oh......"
"Wow......"
The four little hairy children shook their bodies to the sound of drum music on the TV, but their eyes did not move at all, looking directly at the female virtual character named Lily, watching her twist her waist, stripping off her clothes little by little with alcohol, and then hooking her hands at the screen as if teasingly.
Lawrence leaned forward, licked the corners of his mouth, pressed the forward button with his left hand, and walked over to the figure and squeezed Lily to the side of the bed.
"Oooo
"It's coming!"
"Coming, coming, coming......"
Pete swallowed a long gulp of saliva as he saw an English option appear on the screen: "A. Have a good night." B. Discovery of conscience. C. Outsiders crash through. ”
"Pick A!"
The friends laughed and screamed, and Lawrence took control of the cursor and chose A without hesitation.
Then the screen becomes dim, the camera moves to the ceiling, and a line of prompts "Jim got rid of the virgin and successfully passed" slowly appears, although the movements of the two people can not be seen, but various regular sounds can be heard very clearly......
"Oh Mai Ka! This is how Jim's main quest is completed...... Hurry up and change the next theme! ”
"Lily's figure is amazing! I'm so looking forward to the next heroine! ”
Several people urged Lawrence to enter the next link, Lawrence laughed, saw Pete's stupid appearance, and said proudly: "See? The latest game "American Pie" has been released! Isn't it more fun to play games than to watch videotapes? ”
Pete's brain was blank with a deep stimulus, and he was already impatient: "I'm going to buy it too!" ”
These days, it's not just Pete and his 14-year-olds who are vying to pass American Pie, but many schools in North America are spreading the word of mouth about the game.
Until one day, after a parent came home early, he found that his underage child was playing this game, and he checked the game content in a rage, and found that it was an out-and-out 18+ game, so he angrily called the police.
On December 14, the American Interactive Digital Software Association received a large number of complaints from ordinary American parents, accusing the 3DO platform of publishing an 18+ adult TV game with no age limit for buyers!
It is true that there have been some video games in the past that do contain sexually suggestive and some sexually explicit content. But mostly on PC, and in home video games, American Pie was the first!
In North America, the popularity of PCs in families is far less than that of home consoles, and children are not too familiar with the operation of PCs, so parents can generally control the spread of violence, gore, and adult games.
In the home game console, Nintendo is disdainful to do it, and the games they develop are getting younger and younger.
Sega is strictly forbidden to sell, and at the request of Yang Yun, there is no H game on the Sega platform, and he is not short of this money.
Only the 3DO platform is not supported enough. In order to survive. To quickly open the market, we have to make this last resort, reduce the intensity of review, and attract attention with meat sales and violence.
So after investigation and evidence collection. Required by the Interactive Digital Software Association. The 3DO platform has taken all the American Pie game discs offline!
Panasonic breathed a sigh of relief. It's just that this game has been taken offline, and "American Pie" has sold more than 30,000 copies in a few days, although it is not too much. But no matter how small a mosquito is, it's meat.
Of course, SZone Games was implicated, and after "American Pie" was urgently taken offline in North America, their other game "Love Season" was also revealed.
This love development game does not have the footage of the red fruit bubble girl entering the guest room like "American Pie", and it seems that the whole game seems to only have the "revealing clothes".
However, thanks to the efforts of many HGame enthusiasts and programmers, a special module was found.
In the game "Season of Love", if the protagonist's charisma value exceeds the normal requirement of 60%, the "Go to my house to sit" event will be triggered in the bar, and you can bring a specific selection of escort girls to the house to sit down, and see a CG animation of the virtual character OOXX!
It's hard to improve the charisma of the characters in this game, and it requires you to go to a bar and talk to a barmaid, which normal players wouldn't even think of with this kind of design, so almost no one triggers this event.
This is still a veteran programmer who disassembles the program and discovers a hidden caller with unknown intentions, and then finds the location of the CG animation, and then happily shares it with everyone, and then pokes it in the media.
On December 16, this news was published by a number of media outlets, criticizing 3DO's game review system for not being strict, allowing adult games to flow into the hands of underage consumers and enter ordinary families, because the game "Love Season" sold at least 100,000 copies!
In addition, a number of small companies on the 3DO platform of bloody and violent games were also revealed at the same time, for a while, 3DO company became the object of everyone's shouting, which attracted the attention of members of Congress, calling for the suspension of the sale of all games on the 3DO platform, and all games on the platform need to be handed over to the Interactive Digital Software Association to review the source code!
This time, Warcraft, which has just been on the market for less than two days, is unfortunately implicated......
"What? All off the shelves? EA Vice President Hawke was stunned: "Is it only 3DO?" Or all video games? ”
"Yes! All off the shelves! "The Interactive Digital Software Association has launched an initiative to build a grading system for the film industry and clean up the North American game market," said one of his subordinates. In this Christmas sale, Nintendo and Sega are temporarily unaffected, only the 3DO platform is affected, and the sale of all games is suspended......"
Panasonic is like being hit hard by a home run, and all games have been suspended, so who will buy their 3DO console? How else are they going to promote this Christmas holiday?
After hearing the news, Eddard and Wyatt and these designers poured down like a bucket of cold water, and the "Warcraft" they worked so hard to make for more than half a year was revoked just after it was released, which is really a disaster!
These are not enough, before Christmas, during the critical period of the joint complaint of many shareholders of 3DO, the initiator of this incident, Japan's SZone Game Company issued a public statement, aggrieved to express that he was also a victim, and a complaint brought 3DO to court, pushing the whole incident to a climax!
