Its a good job PETA hasn't seen Shootano where you go around blasting Dinosaurs heads off, and I am sure they would take issue with Lara Croft popping off innocent Tigers and Monkeys. At least when Yoshi dies it is his own fault because he is deluded and thinks he can fly but ends up chucking himself into a chasm.
The cabagge pic... makes me ill... I played this at a previous time (before summer, I think). Although I like the gameplay, the premise is rather weird. I mean, there is WAY too much blood! Also, Peach infidelity-slaps Mario (which I doubt that would actually happen).
I wonder how PETA would treat Bowser...? ...I think they would vehemently support Bowser because he is a TURTLE and Mario is being a "meanie" to turtles.
By the way, copyright does not apply to satire and criticism...
P.S. I "played" the Cooking Mama parody. Actually, I only played the "vegetarian" part. I left everything else alone (even when I pondered as to whether I would crack the eggs, even though the timer finished while I was still pondering...) and got all "Don't be a saint!"s.
Not too shabby. Something fun to play when I'm bored. I think their Cooking Mama one was the funniest. ( http://www.peta.org/cooking-mama/ ) Very bloody, of course.
PETA won't stop me from eating meat, but they sure know how to entertain me with their spin-off Flash games.
Vegeta: Just...just...transform damn you... Bulma: We are going to have a penthouse sweet...and he'll drive a corvet...and we will make love every single... Zarbon: (transforms) Bulma: KILL IT WITH FIRE!

Cooking Mama is completely infringing on a trademark!
Cooking Mama herself responded about that one: “I would never put rat in my Ratatouille,” said a feisty Mama while beating some eggs. “Like any accomplished cook, I create my recipes to appeal to a broad range of tastes and preferences. My only goal is to ensure you leave the table well fed.”
Majesco doesn't seem to care, after all, it IS free advertising. I highly doubt that Nintendo will do anything either, after all, it is just a Flash game.
I agree that PETA isn't the cleverest when it comes to promoting their message, but I support many of their positions -- there's a reason we don't allow American beef and dairy imports in the EU! I'm still surprised that battery hen rearing is legal, though it looks like slowly but surely the UK is at least moving towards elimination of that practice; hopefully that will be outlawed in the near future or voluntarily abandoned.
PETA serves a purpose, but the problem is that some time ago they seem to have decided that the best way to accomplish their goals is to be as annoying and dickish as possible.
That, and too many of their members come off as self-important A-Holes.
"The government of the United States is not, in any sense, founded on the Christian religion."
After reconstructing my head for a few days, I decided to threaten my life once again and play the game. To be honest, it's not actually bad (quite entertaining with the stupid "Mario isn't going to save the princess" joke), but it's not going to stop me from eating McDonalds once every few weeks. But the biggest problem with this game is that I still don't get the point. Why is PETA making random flash games about saving/killing animals and spoofing video games at the same time? I just don't get it.

I've never heard Yoshi complain about being ridden by Mario, but I always have a little chuckle when, in Mario World, Mario hits Yoshi on the head for him to lick a goomba!
