Exactly how I wanted to state it, but I couldn't piece the words together considering so many thoughts bombarded my brain at once.
Games serve a purpose and a good one at that.
As the parent stated, "Going around a fake city in a tank and blowing up every douchey car is just wholesome fun."

Blowing up enemies in Halo3..
Killing Zombies in Left4Dead
For those of you who would like to use the argument that if you can murder in a game then why can't you rape in a game.
Consider this. The purpose that games serve is to satisfy a sense of success and achievement. There is always some goal of the game, usually one that requires some game play skill. The goals are to save the world, or even more simplistically remove the enemy. Oddly enough these things DO happen in real life, it is called WAR!!!!!
Let's take GTA4 as a common example of a game where many not so moral things are possible. MOST gamers play the game to reach the goal and gain achievements. It is also great fun to explore the boundaries of the game by slapping hookers, robbing pedestrians, and shooting at cops, but if play the game where your only objective is to shoot at cops (ignoring the achievement of numerous felony stars) there may be some deep rooted hatred towards the police.
Now lets apply the same logic to this rape game. If you play a game with the objective of capturing and raping young girls you may want to look a little deeper inside yourself, and think about what your own objective is and consider why you would buy a game in the first place, then get professional help.
