ESRB pulls down Dead or Alive: Paradise game summary
After providing an entertaining report of “creepy voyeurism” and “dental-floss thongs” about Tecmo’s fap-magnet, Dead or Alive: Paradise, the ESRB has taken down their description for the game following inquiries about its appropriateness.
After providing an entertaining report of “creepy voyeurism” and “dental-floss thongs” about Tecmo’s fap-magnet, Dead or Alive: Paradise, the ESRB has taken down their description for the game following inquiries about its appropriateness.
ESRB spokesperson Eliot Mizrachi released this statement:
The rating summary for Dead or Alive Paradise was posted to our website in error, and we have since replaced that version with the corrected one. We recognize that the initial version improperly contained subjective language and that issue has been addressed.
Our intention with rating summaries is to provide useful, detailed descriptions of game content that are as objective and informative as possible. However they are ultimately written by people and, in this case, we mistakenly posted a rating summary that included what some could rightfully take to be subjective statements.
We sincerely regret the error and will work to prevent this from happening again in the future.
