Online retail giant takes Japanese rape computer game off market

ONLINE retail giant Amazon has taken from its virtual shelves a Japanese computer game that lets players simulate raping girls.

The video game, called RapeLay, being hawked on Amazon by a third-party merchant, was deemed inappropriate after it was brought to Amazon’s attention Wednesday night.

According to game review site Giant Bomb, RapeLay is a “molestation simulation that allows you to terrorise a woman and her two teenage daughters, with events ranging from groping on a train to gang rape and forced abortions”.
