    Their pussy habits have been around for quite some time, just recall the removed content in the jpn version of Biohazard 4.

    But you guys in Japan are still better off than we in Germany who are, along with Australia, really fucked off. House of the Dead for Wii hasn't even been released here, everyone had to import it from Austria :lol:
    I have even heard of policemen digging themselves through DVD forums and raiding the houses of certain members whose collections (they posted on the board) contained forbidden material (for instance Braindead DVD, Manhunt PS2/XB, any Wolfenstein w/swastika's).

    I find it funny to read the Difficulty By Region page on TVTropes and note that 99% of the examples are cases where the U.S. version is substantially (and often nightmarishly) harder than the Japanese version. Sometimes I can't help but feel as if Square was the only company that did dumbed-down games for the U.S. market. :p (And then they made up for the infamous "FF2" with FFIVDS, which will eat your pants and everything you've got under them.)

    Foreign counterparts are not the same company.

    Its pretty stupid to censor bloody video games. At least make it an option. That way parents can turn it off if their kids playing the game and it still gives the option for responsible adults to have it on. Regardless though, how is some digital blood going to effect a kid anyway? I grew up on violent blood filled games and I'm ok :)

    When the movie 'Gladiator' came out, my neighbor convinced my dad to take me and a friend to see it. My neighbor said, "There's just a little ketchup on the screen." I just think of blood in movies and games as ketchup.

    I saw it on vacation in french. All the french dudes were laughing their asses off at the fight scenes. Then came one scene where Commodus is pissed that the crowd likes the Gladiator. My brother and me were the only two laughing. Weird...

    What part of MadWorld and No More Heroes (and its impending sequel!) do you not understand?

    Not saying the big-name titles don't scream "family-friendly" or that most of what's available isn't shovelware, but the platform's got some good games on it all the same.

    yep, there are plenty of adult games for Wii. Only this month Dead Space Extraction was released to rave reviews by not only the Wii press but also fans of the original 360 game.

    I didn't feel like FFIV DS was all that hard, I think it was about right. It forced you to really level a lot, which was fine because I found the battle system enjoyable (I'd never played FFIV before).

    It really provided a good motivation to get everyone to Level 99.

    Try watching a comedy in Japan. The whities and Japanese never laugh at the same stuff.

    Too true. I've laughed at many a thing in the cinema while all the Japanese are silent. The last movie I saw in the cinema was 007 Quantum of Solace. There are a few good sarcastic lines in there that only I found funny.

    So, is this a translation thing (subtitles vs the english heard), not getting the intricacies of the dialogue transferred over?

    i think ti's just the dialog isn't funny in Japanese. Same reason a lot of Jokes in the series Shin Chan don't transfer over to the American version at all.

    I've completed no more heroes already, thank you.:katamari:

    What I was trying to say is that, even if there are some adult games on the wii, most of them are just children games. That's a fact.

    Sega censored the game, but I would'nt be surprised if that was because of nintendo, or at least because of the wii's reputation...

    I don't really like the wii, but you've already guessed it...

    Most of the times puns and whatnot are left untranslated. They don't work w/o a rather drawn out explanation.
