Mass Effect Banned in Singapore

To be filed amongst marginally interesting news, Mass Effect has a slight bit of controversy as the lesbian scene gets them banned in Singapore.
For those of you who have been following the updates on Mass Effect lately, you would probably have heard about the love scene that also raised quite a stir - since you can potentially enact a lesbian make-out scene if your protaganist is a female. But see, i'm not even using the word sex here because in all honesty that scene was quite tastefully done. If you were expecting a raunchy Lust Caution movie-inspired sex scene, then you're going to come away disappointed. Of course, when a video like the one shown in Kotaku (see link above) makes its round do you really expect our censorship board to let the game pass through its net? Of course they don't!

So here's the sad news coming from official sources. Mass Effect, the wonderfully crafted RPG from Bioware is now officially BANNED! The irony though, is that the ban probably only serve to intensify the game's demand here.
