===Violence controversy=== In 2000, after receiving a complaint from a member of the public about the explicit content of the game, the [[British Columbia Film Classification Office]] (BCFCO) investigated and decided the violence, gore and acts of torture were not suitable for persons under 18 years of age. In a controversial decision, the game was labeled an "adult motion picture" and was rated as a pornographic film.<ref>{{cite web | url=http://www.thefreeradical.ca/ministry_of_attorney_general_bc_.htm | title=B.C.
