Scribblenauts is a Little More Disturbing Than We Think

Scribblenauts is a game coming out in September with an interesting twist of originality. It's a puzzle game in which to solve the puzzle or get to a new part of the level, you use the Nintendo DS touch screen to write in a word, and it comes to life in the game. So if you type in "bike", a bike will be created in the level, you character can ride it, and it has all the real life physics we come to know and love. Now many people then thought of the amount of perverted things that could be done with the game, but the developers said they didn't include and curse words or anything selection.

Well that's not the only thing they missed. When the ESRB got their hands on this game to rate it, they found a few weird things which made them give it a "Everyone 10+" or "E10+." The main thing they said was that if you type in two words at the same time, they both appear and have similar properties of each other. THe example they used was they type in "baby" and "steak" and a baby holding a steak appeared. Then they type in lion and a lion appeared, walked over to the baby and steak, and ate both of them. Because of the act of "baby eating," they gave the rating one step above "E."

I understand why they gave the rating what it is, but do they have to make public the fact that you can have lions eat babies to the public? If this game is meant for everyone, then you have to be really screwed up in the head to even think about having a lion eat a steak baby, not to mention the fact that they idea of entering two items at once wasn't even made public in the first place. With people knowing you can entering two items at once with this outcome, this can lead to worse discoveries but we will have to wait to find out the rest of these.
