SEGA's bloody monochromatic third-person action title MadWorld isn't slated to hit store shelves until 2009, but UK media types are already criticizing it for excessive violence. According to Mediawatch-UK, home of Britain's longest-running and most influential anti-violence group, the game will "spoil" the Wii, tarnishing its image as a family friendly console:[blockquote2]This game sounds very unsavoury. I hope the British Board of Film Classification (BBFC) will view this with concern and decide it should not be granted a classification. Without that it cannot be marketed in Britain. What the rest of world does is up to them. We need to ensure that modern and civilized values take priority rather than killing and maiming people.[/blockquote2]While we haven't seen a whole lot of footage from MadWorld yet, Manhunt 2 didn't end up destroying the Wii's image. So we kinda doubt this will either. At the very least, these mainstream news articles will hopefully give the game more exposure and not prevent a UK release from happening.
<p>This is just some over-zelous mothers complaining over nothing. I hate living over here. All we hear on the news is death and war, all we see is documenterys about people who have maimed others in some twisted way, and they complain about a little bit of indulgent violence in a video game?</p>
<p>I also think the Wii should have more games developed towards the hardcore demographic of gamer. I do believe that it should be given a 18 (M) rating, and im not so bothered as i only have a few months till i hit that age, but this game should open a new market to Wii gamers.</p>
