Look, I've spent a bit of time playing Mass Effect, and I've spent a lot more time watching it being played. Now, a lot of media attention has descended on it because there is, apparently, one sex scene involved, but I'm told "you only get to see, like, one second of bare arse anyway". I haven't seen the scene in question myself, but I have seen many, many other parts of the game in question, and while the characters do wear fairly form-fitting body armor, there's no actual sex (or even nudity) involved in any part of it.
Now, somewhere, somehow, the author of the above-linked article went from:
...one scene with one second of bare arse
to
One can custom design the shape, form, bodies, race, hair style, breast size of the images they wish to "engage" and then watch in crystal clear, LCD, 54 inch screen, HD clarity as the video game "persons" hump in every form, format, multiple, gender-oriented possibility they can think of.
Now, I'm certain that this all makes sense in twisted and labyrinthine corridors of the author's mind, but frankly, I can't wrap my head around it. I can't even get mad - this man is so very obviously out of touch with anything resembling reality that his article isn't worth getting angry over. He's just sad and pathetic, like a cat who's so totally certain that it's going to catch that bird this time, that it dashes across the living room only to go WHAM right into the glass door.
Please tell me nobody takes this man seriously. Please? Somebody?
