When parents let their kids play these games and then get mad when they see the content, they have no one to be mad at but themselves. I mean it even says on the back why it's rated "M" in the first place. BioWare can't be held responsible for the stupidity of your average parent. Second, sometimes underage kids are being permitted by the cashier to buy these games rated "M" because some jackasses don't bother to ID or ask for a parent's permission to sell to said child. However, that doesn't mean that BioWare should completely filter out the little things that make their games great. No, sex scenes are not necessary, but they ARE realistic. In real life, Shepard just MIGHT pursue a sexual relationship with someone like Miranda Lawson. Why wouldn't he? Anyway, BioWare prides itself in being able to bring emotion to the experience. Developing relationships is not something the player HAS to do, but if they do choose that path, you get sex. Besides, they don't show anything really bad. Kelly dances in some stripper clothing....big deal.....so Miranda straddles Shepard and takes off her top...so what? She was wearing a bra. That's just like the stuff they show on TV these days.... and movies are much much worse. So I think people can ease off of BioWare. It's just a damn video game.

Mass Effect was only “controversial” because somone who had never played the game had heard from someone else who had never played the game that according to someone else who had never played the game's uncle's brother's son the game contained “almost pornographic” sex scenes involving aliens…

In truth, the few “sex scenes” in the game are hardly anything worth fussing about.
They are fairly tame at most, and nothing worse than anything commonly seen in movies…

I loved the first part and what I have seen of the sequel makes me so anxious for it. I am so looking forward to this game.
