Mass Effect 2 & Heavy Rain down the drain

It’s becoming a disturbing trend lately, recent games are either getting banned outright, or are left out of the Middle East region completely. The decision to ban a game takes some time, so much that some games are banned after they hit retail. A recent example of this was Mass Effect 2, which officially got the ‘Banhammer’ from the UAE’s National Media Council yesterday! Yes, the game has already been out in stores since last month, and only now is it getting the ban. As usual, no official reasoning was given but it must be the sex scenes that a player could reach, while pursuing romantic interests pretty late in the game.
