GotGame: Remember that adult-only Atari game? We do; and we put together a retro video review for Custer's Revenge for the Atari 2600.
Custer’s Revenge is not the only low point in gaming, but it was one of the earliest and lowest. This bigoted little "game" is a vivid reminder of just how far the gaming industry has come.
The author is just jello that he couldn't make a game as awesome as Custer's Revenge.
Best game for NES! 10/10
Of course it's obvious that's the point the real embarrassment is that you think it's not supposed to be obvious.
Jesus, as in 'not this crap again'.
Leave the past to rest when you have nothing current to get your panties all twisted about.
nothing had changed. There are still developers putting out highly offensive games for attention.
Custer's Revenge was a game that few people owned but we heard whispered about. So it's not like it was ever mainstream
A lot has changed, people put highly offensive things in games, but now anyone who complains about it is called a PC SJW.
That's because they could easily just move on to a game they do approve of. Why scrap diversity of style for the sake of one side's scream for censorship?
Exactly... Are you going to play it?
No, probably not. Move on, nothing to screech about here.
Yeah, well let's just pretend games about raping bound up women are perfectly ok. Just because I have no intention on ever playing it doesn't mean I can't think it's disgusting. I suppose you are going to play it then or already have based off your comment?
I lived in the Atari era, and I never even saw this game on the shelves.
People getting outraged almost 40 years on is just pointless.
Boo hoo. Have you played modern games. Gta let's you go into a strip club fir Petes sake. This game is just pixelated garbage but get over it. Games now a days are way worse
PS I don't own this or nor have I ever played it. I have no intention on either
Most people today don't even know this game ever existed. It's not much of a black eye, and it really doesn't show how far gaming has come. It's just one game.
Custer's Revenge is 36 years old. RapeLay came out just 12 years ago, and was far worse than Custer's Revenge. There are still games that get released where the most sexualized characters look like 12 year old girls. I'd argue that in this aspect, gaming has gotten worse since Custer's Revenge.
May from Sirus Gaming: Video games have taken many forms, too many interpretations and if you were gaming long enough – many of them produced a lot of heated arguments not only within the gaming community but people living on Earth. Many have spoken that video games cause violence and promote murder among young adults, thus it should be part of the world’s long list of mental illnesses or are they taking it too far?
Some also believe that the stories these video games show is just an inspiration from what truly happened in the real world or are these video games their real inspiration to do these violent and atrocious act? You be the better judge of that since I will be pointing out the most Talked about video games in history.
It’s funny how some things that were controversial back then are widely accepted now and vice versa
Wow what a shit list.
Never even heard of Bonetown before. And gta 5 wasn't nearly as controversial as the very first one, like it or not everyone knows what it is, no one is shocked like they were when the series debuted. San Andreas would rank above it too if you count hot coffee.
A real list would have to include Mortal Kombat 1, Manhunt and Hatred.
NoobFeed writes "The problem arises when the games themselves become demeaning or just downright cruel to those who aren't being marketed to."
Why does this stuff get approved on N4G? Hmmmmmm... Probably because there are too many horny nerds on this site that like to masturbate to this shit!
Man that's hot...
LOL
