Not so much user generated, as user observed. Some of the more warped minds out there have noticed that Mario takes a somewhat keen liking to this poor bunny rabbit. Or perhaps the bunny rabbit is rather pleased at Marios attention, as he looks quite happy towards the end. This one only just qualifies for inclusion in to Little BIG Pricks, as there is no knob to be seen. It’s borderline.

This innovative ‘interactive art’ genre game was released in Japan and North America on the PlayStation 2, it featured a clever drawing tool allowing players to create their own characters. However, in the wrong hands, the games introductory sequence becomes something quite different…

This flash game is an internet legend. It went viral in a very short space of time, and was eventually snatched up for a full release title (Line Rider 2: Unbound on consoles and other platforms in 2008). It’s concept is simple: draw a line, and ‘ride’ it. Well, it turns out, lines were not the only thing people wanted to ride…

Amongst some social circles, this game is perhaps known purely for its penis creatures. Will Wright’s follow up to the legendary Sims only needed it’s “creature creator” software to be released (months ahead of the full game’s release) and the internet was flooded with videos of penis monsters.
Really, this game is legendary in the field of knob jokes.
Platform: PlayStation 3
Release date: October 2008
TTC: Roughly an hour and a half.
This truly innovative and creative game, available on PlayStation 3, features the ability to create pretty much anything. So it’s only natural that knob jokes can be found in this game. At least, for those users who keep their levels on their own machines. The game rather sensibly moderates any levels which users choose to upload…
So strong is the desire to draw penises in video games, hackers have gone back to the Nintendo classic, Super Mario Bros 3, originally released on the NES, to put penises in to the game. In this example, hackers have created emulated versions of the game to give our favourite fat Italian plumber a little penis sticking out of his blue dungarees. This, is clearly very wrong.
