10 Greatest Scandals In Gaming
Oh how I love a good scandal, and the folks at GamePolitics has gathered Gaming’s 10 biggest Scandals of All-time. Everyone who’s anyone has appeared on this list. Hot Coffee made it, of course. My beloved Night Trap made the list.
Now one glaring issue with this list is the fact that it only dates back to 1993. There wasn’t any scandals before then? No Mortal Kombat or Wolfenstein 3D? They could have at least mentioned E.T. for the Atari 2600. Maybe we should let that one rest and don’t disturb the landfill. The memories of playing it as a child have scarred me for life. I would simply die if I saw it again, die I tell you.
Check out the list here, it’s actually quite good.

Other stuff like this: hot coffee, industry, scandal
Uh, yeah. Not only do MK, Wolf3D and maybe even ET belong on there, but there was this little game called Custer's Revenge....
But, the parents of the ECA guys who run the site were probably too young to play adult Atari games in 1982, so I guess for a top-of-their-head list it's okay.
Man-snogging in the original release of SimCopter? *laughs*
