Microsoft Video Game Banned For 'Lesbian Sex'
Singapore has banned the Microsoft video game 'Mass Effect' because it contains a scene showing a human woman and an alien woman kissing and caressing each other. 
A local paper reports the highly anticipated futuristic space adventure game from was banned because in October, Singapore's parliament decided to put a ban on sex between the same sex.
Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong said that the city-state should keep its conservative values and not allow special rights for homosexuals.
Singapore is the only country to have banned the game, so far, and it is the first Microsoft video game to be banned in the city-state.
The move has caused an outcry among local gamers who say the decision was too strict.
In the past, Singapore has banned at least two other video games -- Sony's 'God Of War 2', for nudity, and Top Cow Productions' 'The Darkness', for excessive violence and religiously offensive expletives.
