Why was that advert banned I found it generally amusing, okay it may have been a bit worrying for the elderly but do they play games??? NO!!!
For all those who haven't seen the advert it goes like this...
"A woman is straining to give birth and then she strains and the baby pops out and flies through the window...then the baby starts ageing quickly until there is an old man groaning and he starts to fall from the sky. He then lands with a huge thud in a coffin and the screen goes black and Says... "Life is short, Play more" I found that amusing. I think that TV today is too censored, people are worried too much about the content. Who agrees???

People find anything offensive - Some might se it as noirmal, others not. Unfortunately, Daily Mail readers express their opinions more than we do....
