What's the deal, did they stop producing that game? Is it difficult to find? I heard it is a pretty stupid game any how.

It got the lowest ratings ever seen in most magazines. Most people that were trying to evaluate the game couldn't make it through the 50 minutes required to get to any of the videos. The puzzles are that lame.

The game is pretty lame, but it's also good for a laugh if you're a drunken frat boy.
The reason it was pulled is because apparently it contains images of a topless 17 year old girl. In the US a minor can connot give consent to do something like this so there is a very good chance that take-two will lose the lawsuit. http://www.gamespot.com/xbox/puzzle/theguygame/news_6115478.html
However this game is not child pornography as evildead2099 claimed.

Is anyplace selling this really cheaply?
...I can't see spending $40 on this, but I do think it will be quite a rarity, crap or not.

I was being sarcastic. :roll:
Funny how people make such a big fuss about a woman's chest but don't give a damn if the chest in question happens to belong to a male.

I will keep my eyes open for this one, since they pulled it I can see it should climb in value. From what I've heard some countries in Europe show all kinds of nekkedniss on TV and nobody has a problem with it, plus the crime rates are lower. MORE PORN LESS VIOLENCE! :)
Yeah, I rented it when it first came out... the game is pretty dumb, but it is somewhat entertaining. It's a little disappointing that the questions are all the same for a given round no matter how many times you play it, so if you've already played it, you can't play against a friend :/ (but you do get all the answers correct and see lots of boobies :) ).

Isn't there an option ot change the questions? I'm sure I remember it having that in the options somewhere. It may not match up with the video anymore but....if questions are the deal.
As for the questions, I don't see that much of a difference between this and Trivial Pursuit. Ok, there aren't that much high end questions but Trivial Pursuit doesn't ask the most challenging questions all the time either. 'What movie featured Carcharodon carcharias?' or whatever.
And let's not forget Trivial Pursuit tends to repeat its questions a lot when you play. And that means having to listen to the same commentary all the time. Having to hear Whoopi Goldberg speak in the game isn't a highlight.

Ah yes softcore porn at 11 PM. When I lived in Italy as a little kid I used to wait till my parents were asleep so I could watch it. This wasn't cable by the way, it was actually local broadcast stations.

Not 18 yet so I don't think I'll be getting this one. Curse my lack of age!

Has anyone seen this on their 'Previously Played Games' shelf for sale? I'd like to pick one up just b/c it got pulled.

You might get lucky at a Gamestop, that's what I did last week. I think it's higly unlikely that BBV would sell it pre-played since they don't have that many per store.

Actually, the law in Texas is unclear as to whether the age of consent in this state (the state the video footage in the game was filmed in) is 17 or 18. So this could be a landmark case that finally resolves the 17 or 18 debate in this state once and for all. Personally, I think that they should just lower it to 16 and be done with it, but that's only because alot of really hot 16 year old girls keep hitting on me here. I seem to attract them like a magnet. I dunno why. But if a girl hits on me, she will inevitably be only 16, every single time. And this ol' Mac Daddy isn't about to cross over from gaydom for a jail term!
