[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Nexalicious Theres a big difference with what i'm saying. An option to turn off cursing isn't going to alter the game in a way that could and would change anything significant. I'm saying that he has just as much right as you people to fix the optimatch. Cause thats all this patch will do for him. Fix a problem. And with the movie bit, you just aren't creative enough. He could do as my aunt does. Watches the movie and records with another VCR. She leaves out the parts that she doesn't want her kids to see. She has the movie titanic without the boob drawing scene. [/quote] Nope...sorry. I don't see a difference in what you're saying. Your arguement was that the original poster was entited to play the game in any fashion he chose, as he'd invested his 50 bucks. That is incorrect. He paid for a product, and got that product. His 50 buck doesn't give him the right to introduce changes or alter a product. We're not talking about patching a bug. We're talking about introducing a new option and/or altering the existing game. As for the whole movie thing, what your aunt does is her choice. She has the tools at hand to make alterations if she wishes. *I* would question showing Titanic to anyone who isn't old enough to see a breast, but that's me. (I would also question showing someone a movie that contains something that they shouldn't see to begin with.) However, there IS a case before legal proceedings where a COMPANY was selling copies of Titanic that were altered in the exact same way, and the Director's Guild and Hollywood were rightfully ticked off that THEIR product had been altered and resold in that altered form. But that's an entirely different subject, dealing with artist's rights and such. The fact of the matter is that as a consumer, you got the product you paid for. An "M" rated game. To suggest that it's the producers responsibility to alter that product to make it more family-friendly (when it was KNOWN as a Mature-rated product to begin with) is rather ridiculous. It's the parents job to protect their children...not Bungies, nor Microsoft. If you didn't want M-rated language, you shouldn't buy M-rated games.
