[font=Tahoma] I\'ve heard pretty much what people have been saying about games sold in NA, like RE; Gun Survivor, BoFIV, and Tron Bonne, although there are other game manufacturers who are getting bossed around by the ESRB, or whoever is in charge of censorship. But are there any other popular games whose contents are altered because of it? I want to know how certain games are done so in what ways.[/font]


Anyone remember the Junebug joke?

Oh, censorship has evolved (thank God!). In Dragon Warrior III, in a town, there was a whole city put asleep. When you manage to wake people up, you can go talk to them, of course. In the original NES game, one of the girls says: \"Was I snooring?\" In the GBC remake, which had a better translation, she says: \"Did you do anything funny to me?\" ;)

We here in America are crazy with this kind of censorship. Everyone freaks out at any nudity or suggestive content in video games, and the same with animal creulty and violence. For some reason, most Americans seem to think that noone knows the difference between what is acceptable in video games and what is acceptable in reality.

In MML, I know you can kick animals alot... In the US, you can\'t. Also... Jim\'s comic is really a porn mag in Japan. Also, in MATB, in Japan, you give #40 a PORN MAG. He\'s really a HORN BALL.

I dunno anything about CT though. x.x

America = Wuss

I\'ve never seen a nation go nuts over a nipple being shown or somebody say \"shit\" in public. It\'s sad to watch really.

As long as those Yanks keep teaching their children what the bad words and vulgar stuff are then it would be indeed no wonder that they make such a big deal about those little things.

Those GODDAMN MOTHERFUCKING DICKWEEDS really need to pull their heads out their asses and realize that civilization doesn\'t have to rely on such matters.

Personally, I think it\'s just homegrown, closed-minded prudishness that starts this kind of issue. They always cry foul and shun anything they deem impure... that\'s just the way they are, I guess, which is the main reason why I prefer the Japanese version of all the games I like over the english versions. If you can read the language, the comparison is consistently conclusive: America, land of the free? Just an illusion.:(

[font=Tahoma] Well, you might have heard about what Wario says in the Wario Advance manual. He mentions a lot about \"shitting in his pants\", \"dumping out a big one in the crapper, which wouldn\'t flush well\", and even picking his nose \" (by the way, I think there was even a picture of him doing so in the manual, although I dunno if you guys have it in your versions) The Japanese really enjoy such disgusting humour, although I\'m sure the US would ban such contents in their games. Just too much censorshippe, eh? [/font]

Sounds like something I\'d discuss! ....At the dinner table. No, I\'m not that tacky. Don\'t probe. You\'d not want to.

....CT. Censored? I wanna see what they\'d cut out. Mmmm... Frog and Dalton stuff...

The USA is mainly full of idiots, that\'s why.

And I agree with Elementalist in a way.. I don\'t mind censorship usually, because it hardly ever takes away something important to the plot. Oh wow, you can shoot birds in MML..big deal. Go shoot snipers in Goldeneye if you want to shoot. :P

And as for that Wario deal...glad that was taken out too. Ew..just eww.

Censorship has a few good points, but when they start cutting out the \'flavor\', it\'s a different game. (That also means Megaman and Rock Man are almost two different games.)

I agree. On certain games, I wished the ESRB should just slap on the rating of the game as is and let people decide if they want it or not; not them saying \'We are protecting you, that\'s why we edited this.\'.

It\'s the game companies that edit games.

Otherwise, the Lunar Games would\'ve never made America, especially THE GUYS SPRING. The actually BLURRED KYLE\'S ASS. XDXD AND HE WAS NEKKID! Just an observation. o.o

[font=Tahoma] Well, for one thing, due to all the lewd and gory ( or even disgusting in any way!) jokes they show on any mangas or animes they have here, I guess kids here learn to \"fantasize\" at a very young age. Like if you were to look at any of the Korokoro Comics mangas, you\'ll sometimes see pictures of perverted kids running around with bikini bras they snapped off of a girl ( or young lady ) who\'s clutching her breasts. There used to be a kid\'s ( yes, targeted at kids!) anime a few years ago, that sometimes showed scenes where a sexually aroused guy has a huge erection! And I was terrified to actually see such things on a kiddie-catered anime.[/font]:eek:

You should see the X-rated toons on the net, I laughed when I seen a pic Megaman and Bass doing something completely nasty with a cheap imitaion of Roll with a bust. They even called Megaman\'s you know what an M Buster.:rolleyes:

I have been told that the essence of being Splash Woman is not in attaining perfection, but in the attempt.

If so, then Splash Woman in general does not qualify as, well, human.
