It can be a bit frustrating, but the in-game hints are very helpful, and I've posted a short list of "translations" in the game area. ie. What they ask for and what they really mean.

The point is there are no female images in the actual game, I know i played it (for the girl i regret to say), and until recently i had no idea that these parts of the game were stolen (borrowed if you prefer).

It's the exact same picture. . . An NO it isn't even remotely suggestive. To say this picture is in anyway sexually suggestive is to say that the costume website is using sex to sell their costumes.

What is questionable however, is the placement of these advertisements. I'm as liberal as they get, and I firmly believe there should be no censorship on the internet, I believe there is a large market for sexual content, and it's not degrading the world to offer it to those who want it. However, to get to such places on the internet, you generally have to search them out, I had a difficult time showing my nephew an article on his favorite fighter in the UFC, seeing as every page has a pair of tits flashing on screen, saying save the queen now for free. Again, the same advertisement while my nephew was searching up video games. It's purely explicit advertising in the hopes to catch those off guard and garner interest. There's no doubt it works, there's no doubt there's a market for it, but it's shown in the incorrect places, and as a 21 year old hetero male, to make me say that shows how over the top the ads are, it's not so much dirty, as its dirty, and on every single corner of the internet That being said I still tried the game out at work , and not only is the game a horrible rip off of PC games from over 15 years ago, it's filled with people asking where the tits are, what they've managed to do was build a flawed, and horrible game, and than filled it with horny teenage males. I say don't bother making a fuss over it, they can't stand to operate for much longer with an aggressive advertising campaign that quite frankly isn't bringing in any customers that could pay even if they wanted to I don’t think anyone here is arguing the sexual angle, more over it’s stated numerous times in the article it’s working, and for that they hit the nail on the head.
