Also, MMM, it IS a dangerous message being sent, but again we have minds for a reason. A person who TRULY thinks that women WANT to be raped in reality, need to get checked.

I don't feel passionately enough either way to get into a real debate about it, but I have played GTA, and in GTA you are constantly reminded that what you are doing illegal, anti-social, and wrong. You are running from cops, etc. I don't think there is any question that your activities are anything more or less than what they are.
I don't get this impression from the rape games. Are you reminded that what your are doing as a character is engaging in anti-social, illegal, and immoral behavior? You are in GTA, but I don't think you are in rape games. That's a different sort of simulation, and to me makes a line between what I find personally acceptable or not. Again, I am not saying these games should be banned, but just what I find entertaining and acceptable in my own house.
