    Hmm would be interesting to see a adult version of steam/origin.

    I understand the developers argument but I feel Steam has to pull out the pen and draw the line. Porn is porn and I feel it should never be sold at a market as free as Steam. Either start an age enforcement policy and ruin the fun for everyone or push it out.
    BTW I'm still offended that they are now selling porn (50 shades of grey) at the Tuks campus bookstore as well as every 2nd book store.

    Umm why?

    While 50 Shades of Grey is a badly wirtten book that I have no idea why is so popular, why should it not be sold at bookshops?

    Yep, keep this crap off Steam. There's a difference between having a game with erotic undertones and a dating simulator.

    It's a cultural thing so I doubt there will ever be a single right answer to this situation but yeah I don't think 'adults only' material should be on a service like Steam.

    Last time I checked there are no pictures in 50 shades. So why should it offend you? Im sure if you go to the Spar around the corner you can find a magazine that features some busty bimbo flaunting her jublies for all the world to see.

    Its only popular because of the men making such a fuss about it on the net, it, like Twighlight, is just another book go to any exclusive books or CNA and there are entire sections filled to the brim with erotic and/or cheesy tween books.

    As for Steam Redlighting this I think its the responsible thing to do. There is enough negative criticism of the gaming industry without its flagship digital distribution platform flaunting porn, lets not beat around the bush (excuse the pun) about this.
    Im not sure how Steams age verification works but if anything my only criticism of steam would be that it doesn't do enough to stop under aged kids from buy/playing age inappropriate games.

    It meets the bare minimum requirements for age verification. Just a quick age verification before you get to the store page, and that's it. I don't even bother putting down my real age because it takes too much time. Just scroll down with the mouse wheel and select whatever I see first.

    In that case they definitely did the right thing by relighting this. Would have drawn a lot of negative publicity for steam when parents started getting up in Arms.

    What do you mean by 'bare minimum' what other steps should they put to verify your age?
