Kotaku And Gizmodo Parading Nude Videos As Gaming/Tech News

The Bitbag writes, "I was doing my usual morning surf when I stumbled upon a few clips on kotaku.com. One was a clip of a man playing Sambo De Amigo in his underwear, the other was a woman, Shay Laren playing Wii completely nude. Not only that but the clip showed her in her bedroom getting dressed. It also showed other full frontal nude shots with no Wii in site! "

looking for some hard evidence? huh?

And if this doesn't work wonders for hits, then there is always the PS3 vs Xbox 360 flame bait.. somewhere..

[TheSadTruth]

PS3 with its triple core processor and multithreading capabilities can render approximately 14 trillion floating point operations per second allowing for better rendering of boobs than the Xbox 360 and Wii combined. Coupled with the fact that Blu-Ray has better visual fidelity and is a better playground for porn than HD-DVD, it's obvious that this console war is over. PS3 has helped me to lose my virginity also because it also help to secrete pheromones marginally more than the Xbox 360 which helps boost my sexual prowess when in the vicinity of the opposite sex.

PL4Y BEY0ND!2!~!1

The videos are still there. Shay Laren is 'Very Nice' *best Borat voice*

[Joey Gladstone]

So now Wii is catered towards Parents, the Elderly, Kids, Teens, and most importantly THE PERVERTS.........they're going to SWEEP the MARKET......

"Not only that but the clip showed her in her bedroom getting dressed. It also showed other full frontal nude shots with no Wii in site! "

Is that supposed to make me mad and disgusted??????

A kid can hear and see worse things on the internet than a beautiful women nude.....

[Azures]

It's arguably less damaging to a child than the expletive filled rants you'd find in the comments on either site. Its not like it was sex either, it was just her bouncing around nude, what is so unwholesome about the female form?

[tordavis]

Nothing at all. But the sites showed a lack of integrity KNOWING that minors surf their sites.

[OC_MurphysLaw]

Well...as a guy I had no problem watching that chick. She was hot...i barely noticed the Wii part...I was more focused on her cans than anything else going on.

That said...I find it a tad irresponsible for Kataku to post that on to their site with out even a hint of an age restriction, etc... I mean basically its just a porn clip..its not even really game related.

[coolfool]

It's the fact that people will only watch the "good" bits and not really care about the wii (why would they) is what makes the clip completely unconnected to gaming.

The wii is just another/new excuse for her to be bouncing around. Which is what these clips are about, great curvy women bouncing around for some reason or another.

Nothing wrong with it but it should either be left to other sites or come with a good warning.

[TheSadTruth]

So nothing is wrong with killing people in game's like Call of Duty 4. There's no need for age restriction for watching people get slaughtered but apparently an age restriction is needed to see a pair of breasts and some pubic hair.

[tordavis]

100% WRONG! When Microsoft and Sony and other companies send us videos that are rated M or higher, we HAVE to put an age gate on them or we aren't allowed to post them. That's why, if you haven't noticed, Gametrailers and Gamevideos and IGN age gate all their clips. It's an enforcement of the ESRB. In other words, they are keeping us publishers honest.

[gamesR4fun]

lol ps skip the first vid on kotaku the seconds where its at ;)

[Mr_Kuwabara]

I don't mind.

[REALZILLA]

That is one way to get viewers

[nevelo07]

i enjoyed im not gone to yall and i hope all you guys would also

[tordavis]

OMG they fixed the site! No more fanboys!

[PeeboDaKilla]

from the phantom disagree I see there's at least one fanboy left

[Vitalogy]

Useless!!

[BrotherNick]

I really don't think that should be on there, although it's really hot...well it doesn't show well to the industry...gamesradar does it too lol.

[jorellpogi]

I don't mind such videos. It will spice up the surfing.

[Masta_fro]

i seriously doubt she can read...wonder how many people noticed that.

[Frances-the-Mute]

she's sexy...lol, but the video bored me, sorry guys

[mr_potato]

Mmmm well that is a way to get casual gamers interested... mmm i might get some crazy ideas here.

[Boink]

kotaku has shown naughty stuff before, they always put the NSFW warning.

whopdeedooo.

[tordavis]

NSFW does not mean not safe for kids.

[Commando47]

Im a dude so this kind of thing will seem cool to me...

But this a gaming site, if i wanted porn i would go somewhere else.

And the Xbots and Sonybots...

why cant we all get along?? Lets play in peace from now all shall we?

[KozmoOchez]

Models need money too! They have families to support

[LinuxGuru]

Honestly, tactics like nudity and pornography to garner website hits are lame, and desperate.

Honestly....porn isn't even interesting anymore, partly because I'm engaged and I get all the crazy sex that I could ever want, anytime I want. Sometimes, it's even demanded from me!

Woohoo!

[SlippyMadFrog]

Just wait till after the wedding, then its back to good ol porn :)

[TheImmortal]

well all i gotta say, that was HOT O.o, like river of drool hot, that being said, it has abosltelu NOTHING to do with gaming/tech and has no point on a game/tech site like Kotaku and Gizmodo
and that being said really tired of hearing people whine about some boobs seriously, I can curse, shoot peopl e with automatic weapons, blow things up, slit throats, rip things eyeballs out and all that other hardcore gresome things we see on video games and trailers, and you get offended by some pubic hair and a pair of exposed breasts, as if seriously the people who go to these type of sites have never in there life seen a nipple and as such will become depraived sexually and scarred for life -.-

[tordavis]

Hey listen up. If you read the article you can see that I bookmarked the page. I love boobs just as much as the next guy. My problem is that Kotaku & Gizmodo sites are open to surfers of all ages. It's not like they had a LINK to the site. They embedded the videos right there on their site. Now maybe you don't have kids that play video games, but I do. Kotaku isn't on the banned list. There's absolutely no reason for them to have that video on their site. I'm not offended by the video, I'm pissed because of the lack of journalistic integrity of the aforementioned sites. I can swear, kill people in games and do all that sh!t too. I'm an adult though. Also, why does the originating site have an age gate? You replied without really thinking things out like a lot of people did in this thread. Maybe most of them actually are kids. I used to sneak my dads porn when I was a kid. :)

Bottom line, my article was about publisher responsibility that's all.

[JeepGamer]

Apparently Giz just can't learn from its mistakes. After getting banned from a convention and then crying about it they're still doing stupid things.

[Rims]

Kotaku proved what a low level sadistic site it is.

[smashballs]

HAWT +1!!

Too bad I wasn't directing that video.

[Salvadore]

Looks like a slow newsday for both of them.
