While I don't closely follow the video game field, people seem to
make sure that I'm shown anything that qualifies as particularly
"bizarre".  "Custer's Revenge" is, uh, well, hmmm.  Let's put
it this way...  It is pretty much the standard sort of game where
there is a task you are attempting to perform as many times
as possible to attain the highest score.  In this case, both the
target and the device being used to "reach" the target are 
rather, uh, "atypical".  

The game is degrading, disgusting, and without any value except
possibly as a novelty.  However, I know of no laws requiring
anyone to buy it or play it, and so I view those groups complaining
about its existence with the same disdain with which I view
any groups attempting to control the entertainment choices of
consenting adults.
