Today, the ESRB removed their online ratings summary for Dead or Alive: Paradise due to its inappropriate content. The original summary said that the game contained "creepy voyeurism," and a "bizarre, misguided notion of what women really want". It also flatly stated that "Paradise cannot mean straddling felled tree trunks in dental-floss thongs."

The ESRB apologized for the "subjective" summary and have now released a more appropriate one.

The rating summary for Dead or Alive Paradise was posted to our website in error, and we have since replaced that version with the corrected one. We recognize that the initial version improperly contained subjective language and that issue has been addressed.

Our intention with rating summaries is to provide useful, detailed descriptions of game content that are as objective and informative as possible. However they are ultimately written by people and, in this case, we mistakenly posted a rating summary that included what some could rightfully take to be subjective statements.

We sincerely regret the error and will work to prevent this from happening again in the future.
