165. Well now, there is a scene in Mafia II. A prison rape scene. Not glorifying/bemusing it at all.

I know the idea that a video game might have such a horrible concept as prison rape might bring about some thought that it is a humorous or trivial thing but it does in fact bring the constant reminder some of us have been continually making on this thread: THESE ARE NOT FOR KIDS.

No, it is not cute...Vito (the main character) is in essence fighting NOT to be raped and or killed. I haven't seen it to be homophobic, but the prison shower rape is a bit trite. But it does answer your desire for man on man action. Also regarding regular gay coupling RockStar has indeed put that into several games: Bully for example.

Now here is a question...I have not played RDR. Was it the main character who supposedly degraded a woman or was it a bad guy?
