    Saw this on Kotaku, NSFW I supposed. Skip to 1:55 on the video to actually see the "evidence".

    Taking a quick glance at the game's ESRB rating, it definitely doesn't say anything about nudity in the game, but given the games love of face dead zombie girls and camel toes, it's probably not too surprising.

    Most people are saying the vaguely vulva-esque looking piece of character model is actually just the legs coming together in that angle, the question is if when inevitably the ESRB is informed of this video, if they will force the game to be pulled and re-print the discs. Is this hot coffee part 2? Will I get a $5.00 check from Dead Island devs five years from now?

    Couldn't someone with the PC version of this extract the 3D model and confirm this easily? Either way...wow who cares?

    Honestly, I'm not even convinced its actually part of the character model, I think its just the angle of the legs and some odd shading. The people who will care is likely the ESRB, who may try to pull the games rating. If the game gets an AO, they would need to pull it from stores and reprint new discs. It could become a pretty big deal, especially for the company.

    There's no actual sexual content though so I doubt it would be AO since for it to be AO, there would have to be sex involved. I mean GTA IV: TLATD had full frontal nudity and it was M rated.

    I judge the person who took time out of their day to look for nudity in an M rated game about zombies. Seriously? Can't find better nudity on the internet? Girls don't like you 'cause you sound like a cartoon rapist?

    A few things on that:

    The first, male nudity is taken a little differently in American culture than female nudity. Case in point, The Simpsons Movie featured a scene showing Bart's penis. I can't honestly say just because a game had male nudity and wasn't rated AO, that a game that featured female genitalia wouldn't either. Double standards and the like.

    More importantly though, if its actually found to be on the character model, or the ESRB jumps onto the sensationalist train, the game would need to go back to the ratings board again. At that time, it would be pulled from shelves.

    Ironically though, male nudity is still far less prevalent in movies and video games than female nudity. If the ESRB does pull it though, it would probably be just to change the descriptor text, not actually change the rating.

    Something like this wouldn't raise the rating, would it? Hot coffee was all about nudity and an actual sex minigame (although it had to be activated with a mod). Dead Island is already M rated, and a little slip of nudity wouldn't mean a re-press (at least, I don't think it would. That would be dumb and unnecessary).

    And if that were the case, that means all the copies need to reflect that new ESRB rating. That means the ESRB rating in the game and the manual needs to be rewritten and it needs to also appear on the case itself. You can't just patch that into the game, because it needs to reflect the new change out of the box, which means issuing out rewritten copies of the game. copies in the meantime are likely to be pulled for whatever undetermined amount of time it takes to tweak the copies and ship them back out. If the dev company is lucky, they can get away with issuing temporary stickers to place over the ESRB rating indicating the change. Either way, it'll cost a not very big company some dough (possibly dough they can't afford) and may even take the game off the market for awhile. It's a pretty big deal.

    Well what you have to realize is that while you think of it as "Oh hey, no big deal, it's already rated m for violence," a sue-crazy parent will see it as "WHAT THE FUCK!? I WAS FINE WITH THE VIOLENCE, BUT IT DIDN'T SAY THERE WOULD BE NUDITY!"

    Law suits are expensive to defend against, and unfortunately much harder and more expensive than it is to find a lawyer hungry for a class action suit. Any "concerned parent" could sue the company for lieing about their product, and claim some type of mental duress.

    Well remember, there was controversy over the PC version of Oblivion because the ESRB misunderstood a fan-created mod that allowed players to render their ladies topless. These guys aren't as bad as the nutjobs who flipped out over the lesbian sex scene in Mass Effect, but they're not shining paragons of intellect, either.

    Its not the planet, its just American puritan culture. You could probably blame the Bible, and to a greater extent, the puritan movement that immigrated to America. The Bible talks a lot, in great detail at many times, about gory violence, but holds the body and sexuality as a sacred holy thing (most of the time.) Follow that with the Puritan ideology that can be best equated to extremist Islam today, and you have a society founded on taking violence lightly by nudity and sex as unsightly.

    I hope that's not the case considering the creators of the game aren't lying about their product, it's the ESRB, which operates independently, which may have missed something in their analysis.

    But yeah, doesn't matter that they'd easily win the case. Legal fees would still be a bitch assuming they were allowed to proceed anyway.

    I'm totally out of touch with all this considering I was playing the likes of Doom back in grade school.

    It's not that we know what rapists sound like, but it's the creepy, subdued tone of voice that makes it analogous to someone of that nature:

    This is most likely just an anomaly from the model of the character. People looking for something will always "find" what they want.
