    Available at Target!

    Gaming website Playfuls.com reported earlier today that in light of Fox’s recent Mass Effect debacle, US retailer Target is pulling the game off of shelves. They didn’t cite any sources, so I decided to make a few phone calls to see what I could dig up.

    I called two Target stores in California, one in Santa Rosa (near where I live) and one in Berkeley, and spoke to people in electronics who had heard nothing about it. I then phoned the other end of the country, a Miami, Florida Target, and the employees at that store hadn’t heard anything either. Finally, I checked Target.com and found that they still have the game available as well, with no mention of it going anywhere.


    Unless somebody else can prove otherwise, I think it’s safe to say that this rumor is false. That’s good to hear, as the last thing we need is for Target to jump on board this misinformed Mass Effect Porno bandwagon.
