Beer Pong Goes High Tech
If the rumors are to be believed, frat boys across America don’t even have to leave their sofas to play beer pong. Their favorite drinking game is coming directly to the computer thanks to Nintendo’s Wii.
JV Games Inc. has announced that its newly formed Frat Party Games will be releasing a Beer Pong video game in mid-June 2008. The game is a take off of the popular (though Lord knows why) game of beer pong. In beer pong, the object is to eliminate partially-filled cups of beer by throwing a Ping Pong ball into the cups (Mmm, how appetizing!). Apparently, this transfers easily to gaming via Wii.
The Wii version, which is controlled by the user’s movements and not by buttons, will feature two styles of play: traditional Beer Pong and Speed Pong.
No word yet on the rating - I would guess it would need to be rated “M” for mature.
What do you think? Are gamer manufacturers going too far? Should there be age restrictions to purchase the game? Or is it all just good fun?

Shouldn’t it be rated I, for immature?
