Because it's stupid is a nice segue into the God Of War games, the now seemingly forgotten series of Devil May Cry-style action titles which put players in the toga of Kratos, a Spartan warrior who kills Ares and takes the violent deitys place. The franchise plays fast and loose with Greek mythology, as the angry slaphead careens around columns and crumbling temples as he fights all those monsters that appeared in Disney's Hercules, except now they have a load of jiggling breasts attached to them. It's not for kids!!!!! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wGsKQGIWquk And to really hit home just how adult and mature the God Of War games are, each one features a sex scene. Except they're video game sex scene as Carry On innuendo, with the actual carnal acts happening off screen. In each title, there's been a cute little mini game as the camera pans away from Kratos and his multiple lovers to, say, a fountain of a kid peeing whose stream gets stronger the longer it goes on and the more button presses the player gets right or, in the first game, a pot on a shelf rumbles off and crashes to the ground in a climactic smash.
