Bethesda Responds To Oblivion Re-Rating

Gamespot has details on Bethesda's response to the ESRB for their (some would argue) knee-jerk reaction to fan-added elements of Oblivion. From the article: "There is no nudity in Oblivion without a third party modification. In the PC version of the game only - this doesn't apply to the Xbox 360 version - some modders have used a third party tool to hack into and modify an art archive file to make it possible to create a mesh for a partially nude (topless) female that they add into the game. Bethesda didn't create a game with nudity and does not intend that nudity appear in Oblivion." They go on to state they submitted a 60-page document detailing the violence in the game. If anyone is at fault here, I think it's the ESRB.

    But rather than make that point - at which point this discussion could have continued as I would have responded to it - you implied I was merely an idiot.

    You really don't know what you're talking about.

    By the way, it's non sequitur. And my logic has been on display for all to see while the best you can muster is to call names and to tell people to read more carefully. That's your argument distilled.

    Ever consider that perhaps, you're the idiot?
