"A girl was forced to strip naked and beaten with stiletto heels - compared the chilling scene to adult video game Resident Evil."

Man I totally remember that part where you had to pick up the stilletos and rape that chick. It was one of the most memorable RE moments.

Well, although it's not well worded, I think the article is comparing it more to the horror element of the game...the fact they beat the girl so badly there was blood all over one wall, for example. Which, in fairness, I think is a pretty fair comparison.

If they're trying to compare it to the Alison scene in RE5 then this is fail, but they don't seem to be blaming the game or any of the usual shit, so I think they're just saying that the attack was so horrific it was like something out of RE. Hell, they've got the whacked out Chris boxart from RE1 there rather than an Alison image, so...

The kid could have said that it was like that one Halloween movie, or Hostel or something. Resident Evil appears to be neither a priority of these journalists nor a scapegoat.

Isn't that more like GTA? I thought they had a feature you beat up prostitutes (most of which are really sex slaves irl btw, they don't get to quit when they want to)

I think RE treats women pretty well overall.

A child compared it to a video game and once again without any research the media has managed to twist the story. Instead of focusing on the horrible acts upon this young girl they choose to pick out the reference to a game because they know that it sells. Just like all the other video game stories, i don't doubt that another similar case occur's and it snowballs into another un-educated boycott by the media, influencing the ignorant. I hate this tabloid shit.

Remember that time when the kid who beat this other kid was blamed on Manhunt?

Oh yeah, it was the victim that played Manhunt, not the attacker. They forgot to mention that little bit. Ugh, stuff like that just pisses me off.

And let's not forget the "lesbian sex scene" in Mass Effect. At least the dumb broad came out and said sorry for lying.

Thank God Jack Thompson was debarred (or was it barred?) from protesting against video games... makes my life that much happier.

Again, folks, no one in this article is saying that Resident Evil caused this. The comparison is purely because there was blood all over everything and I think we can all agree that it does happen in Resident Evil. Yes, whoever it was who made the comparison (the article makes it sound like either the girl or the dickhead recording the attack) could have said another game, and another game might have been more suitable (I have no idea if we regularly see walls splattered in blood in GTA or something) but they apparently knew RE better. But no one's blaming the game this time. It's just a comparison.

See, and there you have the classic journalism dilemma of profits vs clean reporting. That wouldn't typically make it past a good editor (one that is in it for actually reporting), but by just throwing in one little comment, its amazing how far a story can reach ;)

Nobody remembers the heel advert for re1?
