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.

    Yes, Bush is bad. But the only difference between what Bush has been doing and what previous presidents have done, is that Bush has flaunted it. Instead of being secretive about taking our freedoms, he's created a unique political climate in which people aren't angry about it, they're actually cheering him on.

    People are encouraging it, and if you don't want to wipe your ass with the constitution, you're not a patriot.
