"Beer Pong" game created by morons, protested by morons

Apparently the picket posse heard about upcoming WiiWare game "Frat Party Games — Beer Pong" and they're not pleased. Check out THIS LINK for the story.

And, if you ask me, both sides of this argument are just failing to use their noggins, so I'm going to set them straight right now:

JV Games: Were you just asking for this sort of publicity? You must have been with a game title that includes the words "Frat" and "Beer." Come on, guys, did you need to make the binge-drinking aspects of this game so prevalent? You know, a Wii party game (titled "Party Games") came out not too long ago that features Beer Pong — and everybody knew it was Beer Pong — but they called it "Ping Cup" instead and ended up having gameplay footage on Amazon.com with no complaints. Hell, the only complaint was from me when I saw the gameplay stunk so bad.

Protesters: Do you really think kids between the ages of 13-21 need any downloadable video game to make them want to drink beer? There are 20 different places on TV or magazines that can teach kids what Beer Pong is, and countless other places that will entice kids to drink. It's unavoidable nowadays, so the only thing parents should be doing about this game is what they should always be doing — talking to their kids about the dangers of alcohol so that when they inevitably get their grubby little mitts on it, they are smart about it.

Both of you badly need a dunce cap and a time out.

On a related note, I know somebody who didn't drink but needed to play Beer Pong anyway, so she did so with water. She was the only person who vomited at that party.
