10 Most Controversial Video Games Rated 'Adults Only' In America

9. Indigo Prophecy/Fahrenheit

Known in the UK as "Fahrenheit" and titled "Indigo Prophecy" in the States, this game by studio Quantic Dream was actually quite a good time, at least until it goes off-the-rails in the third act. Oh, and around the middle of the game players can actually move their controller's joystick in a manner to simulate thrusting during sex. Yes, this title has a scene where if the protagonist says the right things when talking with an ex-girlfriend, players can engage in a rather explicit (at least for American tastes) scene of sexuality that essentially involves a sex mini-game. It is obvious how much potential drama this could cause, so Quantic Dream decided that in order to avoid getting an AO rating on the Xbox and PlayStation 2 the most naughty bits would be excised. However, "Fahrenheit," can be purchased in America in all its naked glory now that enough time has passed to avoid controversy by anyone who uses a website that sells digital downloads of games.
