The Guy Game

The Guy Game is a 2004 adult puzzle game released for Microsoft Windows, mh:awesomegames:PlayStation 2, and Xbox, developed by Topheavy Studios and published by Gathering of Developers. It was directed, produced and designed by Jeff Spangenberg, the founder of Iguana Entertainment and mh:awesomegames:Retro Studios. After he left the latter by mh:awesomegames:Nintendo's request as he was found to be using one of their computers to host his own personal website with inappropriate materials, he founded another company named Topheavy Studios, with the main objective of producing this game based on his lifestyle.

Why There's a Lot Wrong with This Game

 * 1) To get the elephant in the room first: The game is considered  child pornography  by U.S. law standards thanks to a lawsuit sent by one of the girls featured in it, as she was not informed that the footage they took was for this, because at the time of recording, she was only seventeen years old. This results in all produced copies to be stopped and recalled. To this day, it is the only video game in the U.S to be illegaly sold and owned, other than Custer's Revenge, which was banned in Oklahoma City due to it being offensive to Native Americans living in Oklahoma.
 * 2) * Thanks to this, Topheavy released a DVD version called The Guy Game: Game Over, containing additional stuff and bonus features. However, this version is incredibly rare due to Topheavy going out of business.
 * 3) Like BMX XXX, it relies on FMV for its sexual content, which was already obsolete when the game came out.
 * 4) The objective of the game is to answer the questions given to the girls (referred in this game as "hotties"), and if they answer it incorrectly, they will flash their breasts, which is considered not only sexist by today's standards, but also prostitution. Also, thanks to the "Flash-O-Meter", the more the player predict the outcome, the meter rises, which leaves the flashing less censored, which can also be creepy, knowing the lawsuit mentioned earlier.
 * 5) The gameplay itself is a blatant rip-off of You Don't Know Jack, minus the interesting questions and presentation, and even the charm.
 * 6) The game's host, Matt Sadler, is a bland and uninteresting announcer with zero charm about him compared to the numerous hosts in the You Don't Know Jack franchise.
 * 7) When playing the Xbox version on an Xbox 360, there is audio choppiness in the videos under the bonus unlockables, and on the extra videos at the end of an episode.

Reception
The game was met with mostly negative reception by critics and audiences for its sexual content and lack of gameplay. IGN however gave it a positive 7.7.

After this game flopped, Topheavy Studios filed for bankruptcy and its founder, Jeff Spangenberg, vanished from the public eye since.

Controversy
Four months after release, the woman featured in the game sued Sony, Microsoft, Topheavy, Gathering of Developers, and Take-Two Interactive, with her claiming she was never informed that the footage of her was used in the game. After the lawsuit, The Guy Game was banned in the United States. Along with BMX XXX and Criminal Girls, The Guy Game is one of three games available on the consoles to be prohibited from being streamed on Twitch due to said lawsuit & the FMV nudity.
