SALEM, OR–State legislators from Oregon to Rhode Island have taken the unprecedented action to ban a video game prior to its release and, in fact, prior to the game even being announced.

“We took this step to caution any game maker that might be thinking about making this game,” said Candace Clockmeyer, a lawmaker in Oregon representing a commune at the foot of Mt. Hood. “We felt that the threat of a viral, graffiti-based game would destroy the natural beauty and sovereignty of Oregon.”

Several game studios contacted about this ban seemed surprised, but unconcerned.

“Frankly, we weren’t developing that particular game,” said Jason Linget of Hyperbole Game Studio. “We tend to focus on game involving boobs that bounce around a lot. Now if they were going to ban that sort of game I think you’d hear quite an outcry.”
