EA - NFS: ProStreet porn shoot slipped through screening process |
Ó
Electronic Arts recently announced its regret that a porn promotion for Need for Speed: ProStreet "slipped through the proper EA approval process." This was concerning a topless photo shoot featured in Page 3.
Page 3.com is the official softcore porn site of The Sun, a UK tabloid. The images have been deleted from the site but a video of the photo shoot is still online (but not here folks). The video has been disassociated from the game.
Electronic Arts explains that that promo for Need for Speed: ProStreet (PC, Xbox 360, PS3, PS2, Wii, DS, PSP) was "not appropriate for [the] brand." The game was already released last November 14 in the US.

pics or it didn't happen. LOL
This was a UK promotion. And in the UK, topless is not considered pornography, so exactly what is the fuss all about?
It actually kinda disturbs me that people in such a developed nation would actually refer to this as porn.
If anyone ever saw some the ads they ran for Juiced, then you would realize that this is just a whole load of nonsense. I'll bet that the sales figures for this game are low, so this "apology" is just EA's way to get the game back into the media.
we don't care, as if they hadn't told us then we wouldn't have known about it!
Sorry to burst ur bubble but topless would be considered Nude, not porn. In this case, where the ad was in europe it's not going to matter, cuz europe has a different view on nudity than North America does.
You get an ad when some beauty... find alternate uses for the gear shift in one of NFS's cars then... you might have porn.
I'm sure the English are offended by boobs... ever watch the BBC?
game companies need to grow a freakin spine, it's only boobs we sucked on them when we where babies and we chase them till we die, what's the big mother freakin deal. we are being pussified and it keeps on pyling up.........spinless cowards
Benny Hill is some funny *****! lol!
hooray for the "streissand effect".
HDTV code leak anyone?
Manhunt 2 anyone?
Thompson anyone?
Modchips/pandora coverups, anyone?
TABOO!
But I think the fact it's in the public domain, and the game is G as in targeted at all ages, it is somewhat a "controversy" to include topless chicks in their "media" section of the site.
But seriously, LEAVE IT THERE!!!
maybe you're right but then again in England a topless babe on the front page of some newspapers is quite common. In Europe most seaside swimming areas allow
topless. Porn and nudity are different. Those darn strings are a dammed sight more sexy than nude so that would be closer to porn than nudity itself. Porn is very clearly described in all dictionaries and nudity does not fall into this area. ***** they will start putting an M Rating on the classic paintings hanging in our galleries if we allow this prudish nonsense to go unabated.
