BMX XXX....

[merylsilverburg]

Has anyone heard about this game, BMX XXX by Acclaim? Considered to be one of the most "raunchiest" sports games, it was originally titled "Dave Mirra's BMX XXX", but they decided to drop DM because without a license, they're able to go further with the "XXX".
What goes on in this game: There's all sorts of different characters (not playable) such as pimps, dogs (and its feces), hookers, bums, drunks, monkeys,...and more. You basically accomplish small missions for these characters and that's how you progress.
For the multiplayer, there's going to be games similar to those in THPS, except the ones they have in this game is called "Strip BMX" and "Sniper BMX". For the stripping, it's almost like HORSE, and whoever loses...um....strips. For the sniping, both players are on opposite ends and the one with the sniper rifle tries to blow off the head of the other player while the other player scrambles to escape.
Besides all the stuff mentioned above, there will also be "peepshows" that have live-action videos of real strippers....

Okay, what the hell was Acclaim thinking? Do they not know that video games are already having such a bad rep. and now they throw a game together like this? Omg, imagine all the stuff from parents when the game gets released...sure, it's rated "Mature" but who cares? Millions of young kids and teens still go out and get games like this. Oh man, there will be more controversy than ever. :disturb:

Its exactly what there trying to do. There trying to create controversy to sell games. You saw how well it worked with gta3. But I think nudity in games just isn't right.

[merylsilverburg]

True. But...GTA3 is an action/adventure game while this is a sports game....I mean, I'm not saying it's wrong or anything or that I've never "seen or heard such stuff before" but I just don't want more crap to come to the vid. game industry....GTA3 raised a lot of stuff and now this....oh man...

here's a vid

it's great to see the limits of the ESRBs rating system pushed. The boundries need to be established sooner or later. BMX XXX isn't doing anything that hasn't been done already in R movies.

The reason why they're creating these more mature themed games is because they're aiming at a certain group of gamers (18-35)

[Redpyramidhead]

Personally I have no problem with nudity in video games and sexual themes as long as its part of some kind of intriquing storyline and if perhaps the writers thought that it would add to the story i nsome way. Well, ok I have a little bit of a problem with it, but as long as there is sufficient artistic purpose behind it maybe its not such a bad thing. As certain types of videogames become more and more like movies (like survival horror games for example) nudity in games is probably sooner or later to be expected whether we want it or not.
On the other hand, if it's pointless exploitation of women in a game like BMX XXX which is an extreme sports game where one has absolutely nothing to do with the other...what the heck! I can picture my friends little brother (if he managed to get his hands on the game somehow which wouldnt be hard at all) now snickering with his friends about naked women doing stunts on bicycles while collecting coins to look at peepshows and being like "This is Awesome! we need to find the other coins to see it all man!" I'm pretty sure that was Acclaim's idea all along. I am not in anyway trying to be rude to younger gamers at all...I'm just saying i hope Acclaim doesn't reel people into buying the game for the gimicks and not have it offer any good gameply. I'd hate to see that.

got lost on a tangent again...sorry my bad

I can't really picture many 18-35 year olds playing BMX XXX for the sole purpose of the X-rated material. IMO

Well, I don't think they'll go that far...maybe in their undies? :laugh:

Exactly. I can imagine a scenario like that too. It'd be outrageous. I, too, have no problems with nudity or a more mature theme in a game, but as long as it has something to do with the storyline. But...a game like this....it'd just be so...inappropriate and pointless IMO. But hey, if it's cool with everybody and all, then there's nothing else to say, ya know?

BMX XXX, isn't just gratuitous it's humorous, and it is the humor in this game that is the underlying foundation.

[merylsilverburg]

Well, fairly old thread, I know, but I just heard today at school from a class discussion on obsenity, that "BMX XXX" is actually not coming out and is going to be banned. Apparently, the guy with this info said it was because nudity was going to be added in and that was the last straw. Just thought you guys wanted to know and see what you think of this.

[Infernal Mass]

hi Meryl :)

actually it's only being banned from Walmart Toys R us and ..well here's a link.

http://www.cnn.com/2002/TECH/fun.games/10/15/game.xxx.reut/index.html

[merylsilverburg]

Ah, thanks for the link. :) Well....that's interesting, the first game to have nudity and all....I wonder how sales will go? ;)

[Infernal Mass]

actually though i don't know if i'll be gettin this one.

I'm anticipating the other controversial title :sarcasm: that Tecmo is releasing in December. DOAX, looks amazing.. the graphics engine is ahead of DOA3's.:shock: Also, according to the games beta tester..the gameplay is much smoother than Yu Suzukis' recently released Beach Spikers.

are you going to buy/rent either of the two?

[Redpyramidhead]

HEy I can't say I mind naked women at all, but whats the point of putting them in a video game like this where it is has nothng to do with anything?? Sure...for somebody who's enough of a dork, it'll be funny and even entertaining as hell, but whatever...
Hey and maybe I'm old school, but I don't enjoy a lot of these gross out "comedies" being made like mad these days. I prefer real wit. If these writers think they're so funny why don't they turn out something worth our while.
This game just seems so immmature to me thats all.

What other controversial title that Tecmo is releasing? :confused: Are you talking about DOA Volleyball? If so, how is that controversial?
Well....that's a good question. I don't know if I'm gonna rent BMX XXX 'cause I don't wanna look like some horny...uh.....chick. :right: But yet, at the same time, I'm intrigued about how bad this game is and all.

Red: Yes, I agree with you. I also don't enjoy those stupid weird gross "comedies". I don't really see how people can compare GTA3 with this game...I mean....the two seems totally different IMO. GTA3 is all about action/adventure involving gangs, violence, and "the dark side". This....this game is a sports game where...um...nudity or raunchiness doesn't really fit in.

Yeah DOA volleyball..sorry for the confusion i usually call it DOAX for short.

Alot of people are talking about how it's in the same league as BMX XXX :disturb:.. from what they've seen of it. They think it's some sort of lesbian island date simulator.. or something. :laugh:
It is going to have questionable content but it's in good taste.

[merylsilverburg]

Uh.....I know the game is gonna have all the chicks from the DOA series, but lesbian relations???? :peoples: That's just dumb. :disturb: I do admit though, that creating a game with all the ladies in skimpy little suits is just to entice the men (j/k :D) but still...it's not so bad that girls can't play the game either. However, BMX XXX is just going too far.
Maybe I can secretly rent BMX XXX or something....:laugh:

the game got a 5.4 :blergh:

Probably because its the most stupidest game I have ever heard or seen. Doesn't the world have enough pornography aired?.. And even if there are some videos of some naked females kissing each other's body............ I dont seee any sense in it......... I mean Duke Nukem had some sense in it..... but an extreme sports game with tons of nudity is just plain stupid. Its like Smoking to me, no f*cking point to it!.!

Do bikers all across the world deals with nudity while doing stunts? I love skateboarding (which is a similar sport) and it has nothing to do with single double or triple XXX related things.

This game gives bikers a very bad name. Period. (My opinion, if anyone loves it, go ahead and play with it all *night* half way through everynight).

No surprise there. :laugh:

[Beretta55]

late reply i know but i think this game is just total trash i havent played it. but putting naked women on a BMX just for sale's is one of the lowest thing's i have ever seen and heard. i just liked bmx games for biking and doing trick. but while rideing i will be seeing two dog's doing it scare's me:laugh: plus making your own biker is cool but i wouldnt care to make a nude stripper. but i think this game is just a all time low in videogame's.

but yeah i dont mind nudity in game's if it helps a story along then thats fine with me. but this game is just like showing boobie's just for the hell of it.

[FlexMasterRice]

honestly......i naked women are great. and naked women in video games great too. lets just have naked women everywhere! :phew:

but no, seriously....They're doing something new, it's gonna be a new level in video gaming.....love it or hate it.

personally....i dont mind it. (no, offense to any females)

[JNinja11]

all i'm saying is, let Acclaim make andsell the games they want to and let people buy a game that they want to but of course depending on whether that kids parent(s) or guardian(s) give the ok for them to have it

[FlexMasterRice]

I agree with you JNinja.

Some kids can secretly get the game without their parents knowing it. Besides, many parents already blame the videogame industry for many stupid things (like violence) and I'd just hate to see what parents would make of something like this (that features full-frontal nudity).

that is very true kid's can sneak game's. like blockbuster i saw a kid get bmx xxx for gamecube and his mother didnt even ask. oh well at my blockbuster they are pretty much taking them off the shevle's.

[FlexMasterRice]

oh well....kids have to grow up some day.....better soon than never...

It can be seen as a good thing too....if a gaming company is bold enough to make a move like that, it is only progressing the gaming industry. I'm not saying this game is particulary bad or anything (there are far worse games out there in terms of gameplay, graphics..you name it..) but it takes the bad to know what's good....and vice versa. I just think any step the gaming industry makes is always a positive step for the future of games.

i rented the game for gamecube. it's a pretty cool game some of the character's in the game are funny. but i like create a rider mode *not for the naked woman you fool* but i have one guy with punk black hair,gry sleeveless shirt and blue baggy pant's. then i have a jason type character i made:laugh:

[FlexMasterRice]

you see, you guys judged the game before even playing it just because it made a bold statement that you didn't like. We have SOMEone who at least likes the innovativness of the game...

ah well whatever...

Yeah well, I'm sure it's fun for some people to go around and do missions only to end up unlocking stripper videos and all. :disturb:
And besides, this thread was really supposed to talk about what people think of it...I never played it so it's true that I can't say things about it without doing so. But considering the reviews of people who have played the game, it doesn't seem very appealing in the end.
Besides that, since the game already has an "label" on it being a "naughty" game, I don't want to go around and rent it and have people look at me strangely. :right: I might if I disguise myself. :laugh:

[Beretta55]

you dont really see anything really. and you can just avoid the stripper video's if you please so you can avoid the nudity in this game. so far i have just been taking my fav biker and just tearing it up at the dam it's a fun game if you liked previous dave mirra's. i rented this game and got no weird look's....but i didnt look behind me:laugh:

Hmm...I guess it wouldn't be so bad....I haven't played Dave Mirra's games, so I can't really say anything, but are the controls and all smooth like THPS? Yeah, I know skating and biking are different, but...:P
Maybe you didn't get weird looks but I'm a girl. :laugh: It'll look very strange for me...:laugh:

[Beretta55]

if they do pop them int he nose! muahahahahaha only kidding. but maybe not as smooth as hawk but there are more move's you can do in diffrent way's. it's quite hard for a first time but you can ace it in like 30 mintue's or a hour. that's the learning curve but the goal's get harder and harder and the character's are funny. but i suggest you rent this game it's dave mirra with humor and nudity that can be avoided.

Just out of curiousty, I doubt it because you said it was a dicussion about obsenity because we were doing "Current Event Friday", but do you go to Toms River High School North..? Around the date you posted that I brought in an article from cnn.com that was discussing the game..I would just find it strange if you were in my journalism class..lol:roll:

[merylsilverburg]

Ah no, sorry I don't go to your school. XD It just must be a coincidence because the class I was talking about is American Government. This game must've just been huge news around that time. :laugh:

Frostman: Good plan, I'll just smack them if they do look at me. :laugh: But thanks for telling me...I do like Hawk's controls and all, but if you say this game is alright, then maybe I'll check it out for the PS2...since it's censored anyway. :)

[TtTackler]

Ah, kay. :P

I've played the game for ps2 myself (my brother got it..and he will get it again for gc when he gets gc because he wants to see what the nudity if really like..:roll:), and its not really anything more than really funny. The gameplay is 'meh', but some of the missions are really frustrating. The multi-player games are fun though :phew:

[FlexMasterRice]

in the end it just all comes down to preferance....:cool:

i think even if you do like sports games, or any game in general, there may be a good game that you wo'nt like or there will be bad games that you just for some reason like. It truely is weird...
