Nighthawks, the long-in-development vampire RPG due to be released later this month, is the latest game to run afoul of Steam’s increasingly stringent rules regarding adult content.

Somehow she manages to maintain this attitude, even though the news she delivers is always so convincingly, unbelievably bad.
