Dante was rolling in his grave when they made the game into something that has almost nothing to do with the poem he wrote,except being set in hell.GreyWolf257 said:

A game set in Hell. That's NEVER, EVER been done before.

What I find funny is the achievement is called "Bad Nanny" which is gained through killing babies. Killing children and such are not really qualities in a good nanny. So, you'd be an a Bad nanny, which is the name of the achievement.
But can this little joke of horrible baby murder being called something so mundane as just a bad nanny, be seen as is? No! Someone has to come along and tear it wide open and make a big fuss about it. Just live and let live.
So what? Neon Genesis Evangelion crossed the line when giving psychological disorders to the cast of characters, it doesnt change anything when someone complains, im surprised in fact that this country aint supporting this game since it has a HUGE hard on for religion.Tdc2182 said:

Um, nannies? You should be aware that there are better ways of getting noticed. Create a new child care management system, or something with a degree of innovation behind it, for Christ's sake.
Of course, if you have no imagination- and I'm guessing that many of you don't (don't get me wrong- I have met several childcare providers who are actually brilliant, but merely have little to no ambition)- you could always do something that will at least further your own ends *gasp*, such as going on strike.
Wow they need to reach around and pull the stick and three or four inches out of their asses. Hell make it five or six and we might even see a smile. If this wasn't involving nannies they wouldn't have looked twice.
Hey, INA, remember: it's only a game; it's not real. Close your eyes if it helps.RollForInitiative said:
Oh, yeah- the four year old took a shit in the cabinet and the dishwasher's on the fritz. Clean it up.
So why does monkey-god person get sent to an asylum, but man-god person? They're both equally unbelievable and inane.oppp7 said:
It's sad the insults that get thrown at these nannies just because they dislike a very small portion of a game and are speaking out against it. They don't want to ban the game, they aren't denouncing the violence, they're just understandedly miffed at the killing children part and on top of that having their profession mocked in the title. God-forbid they take advantage of freedom of speech. Seeing the amount of insults towards them on the first page is just a greater testiment that people feel that they can be absolute assholes when the cower behind a monitor.
And yes, I would say that to your face.
Towards the idotic achievement, I dislike it but not because of what it wants you to do but because it's gimmicky. It's as if the game already has a complex and is screaming for attention months before it's even released. That's a bad sign in my book.
I played games long ago on my computer that had wit, plot and depth that never had to resort to such stupid tactics. Yeah the graphics suck by today's standards but the game was so good that didn't matter; unlike today where the only thing a game has to offer are it's graphics and gimmicks.

I'm still concerned as to why we've delved so far back in time in the whole books-to-movies thing. Esspecially in the case of poems. I'd much rather watch Prose Edna and Canterbury than Divine Comedy
To be fair, at the time this book was written, this was all as close to fact as you got.Spekter068 said:
Just a quick note - Catholics do believe in purgatory and Dante's Inferno was written by a Catholic. While most people only think of the hell portion of this work, there are two other sections, purgatory and heaven that rarely get noticed by the public now.Chipperz said:Yup, that makes sense, I'll take your word for itzidine100 said:
...Does this mean that all unbaptized babies go to Hell now? I'm gonna need a priest...
Unbapitized babies were thought to go into a place called limbo, which is neither heaven nor hell, and the could not leave. This view has been disgarded more or less by the modren Catholic church and it is thought that they go to heaven, although some still believe in limbo. The reason they went to limbo was because they still had origal sin yet had not done anything in their lives to condemn them to hell.
Just thought I'd clear that up
I actually love the fact that they love religion. And Ive known that they were going to cross the line with this game alot. Its just I dont enjoy killing women and babies in games. I prefer gangsters and undead nazis, because those are the image of evil. But kids?raxer92 said:
These nannies are doing the game more good than harm.
Angry organisations going 'Harumph' never seem to realise that they are giving the offending media excellent publicity.

It's funny how no one ever protests about the King Herod story in Christianity.
That's more horrific kid killing than in any game I can think of.
Also... they're late to the party, Dead Space already did the baby killing thing.
