This is old news if you're a close follower of The Movies modding scene, but hasn't really been given any attention for some reason.
In a thread posted over at The Movies forums, a member points out that a picture of somebody's baby appears in the game files in a texture called "Marine.dds". Quite who this baby belongs to has not yet been determined, but it is an amusing easter egg nonetheless.
A Marine Baby
More interesting, is when another member posts that there is something suitably dodgy in the game files for him to be unwilling to post it for fear of punishment from the higher powers.
Intrigued, and armed with the information that it was "A painting of a nude woman", I popped into the newly released "The Movies Editor" and performed a quick search.
A Nude Woman
This is what then came up. I can't say I really see the fuss myself, but it is a nude woman and it is present in the actual game as sold in the shops. The game is sold with a "Teen" rating, which mentions nothing about nudity being present.
I then did a search for any sets that might use this image.
Usage Search
Two sets actually use this texture, but on closer inspection they use specific texture coordinates which mean the nude woman is not visible. The game as shipped does not ever show the nudity.
Having said that, the Hot Coffee scandal involved content that could only be unlocked by modifying game files. The exact same can be said for The Movies. I'd be interested to see what the fundies would say if they found out about this - coupled by the implied sex scenes available in The Movies and (with modding) full on nudity it would make for quite a racy pornographic game in their eyes.
Sssh, better not tell them then...
