Yesterday TheGameReviews.com featured a story regarding the decision of Singapore’s Media Development Authority decision to ban Mass Effect from being sold in the country due to a in-game scene which depicts a intimate scene between a human woman and a female alien which were in opposition to the country’s conservative beliefs. In a new step forward for the country, which has had a long history of banning games that it deemed contained too much mature content, reversed the ban it made regarding Mass Effect. This was due to an announcement made by The Board of Film Censors that has decided to allow the game and others that would otherwise be forbidden using a special classification until a games classification is put into place in January. The purpose of this change in policy is to allow various kinds of games to enter the market in order to be purchased by the general public while also providing the gaming industry and the public at large information about how Singapore’s game classification system will work and the benefits that it will bring to the market when it is put into place starting next year.
