Authored by Mark Hefflinger on November 15, 2007 - 1:31pm.

Singapore - Singapore's Media Development Authority has banned Microsoft's (NASD: MSFT) "Mass Effect" video game in the country, over a scene that shows "a human woman and an alien woman kissing and caressing each other," Reuters reports, citing the local Straits Times newspaper. The country's parliament last month voted to let stand a ban on sex between men. Other titles that have been banned in Singapore due to sexual or violent content include "God of War 2," "The Darkness" and the "Grand Theft Auto" series.
