I don't remember CoD4 being censored.
Makes me think this is just more of Bethesda's idiocy.

Yeah bitch you will make people wonder why Bioware's writing is so dumb that you must detonate a whole nuke just to take out a small base.

As for japanese. I don't know. Judging by their anime they are pretty fucking dumb. I remember there was this anime where a human doctor created a virus that makes human race incapable of reproducing. But then the evil androids who want to destroy humanity come for that virus and doctor refuses to give it to them because she doesn't want it to be used against humans.
This is just... bizarre.

And we are being spammed with this ridiculous shit - see what only two nukes can do to the whole world

But nobody nuked US and we still got fucking dumb Transformers movie, and also dumb (something) Movie series.

WW2 games are reasonably successful in Germany, I believe.

Of course, it does give us the opportunity to correct the mistakes of our ancestors by winning key battles of the war in multiplayer matches. :wink:

If find this very silly. Almost every Japanese science fiction have nuke involved. Massive nuclear attacks happen almost in every gundam series.

I expected a name change for the Fatman. It is a little insensitive.

Yeah, and African Americans call each other nigger all the time, why is it suddenly racist when Michael Richards does it? That's not to say the changes are not silly. Seems to me Bethesda are just playing safe, no surprises there.

And what about all the fat basement dwellers in the US? I think Bethesda should feel sensitive about their itty bity feelings as well.

Nuke Taboo my ass, there's plenty of nukular action in Japanese stuff. If they're fine with stuff like Akira where Japan gets fucked in every possible way, then they can deal with a tiny mushroom in AMERICA.

Either the work of Bethesda/Zenimax on their own or some hyperactive and misinformed external agency. The Japanese wouldn't give a shit.

Over there.
If tentacle rape is okay, why are pussy shots pixellated in real life Japanese porn? Not that I'm interested in seeing the hairy beasts they keep between their legs (though the rare Brazillian shave is still hidden), but yeesh! Warped sense of right and wrong, tbh.

Godzilla has nuclear breath for crying out loud.
And that particular metaphor for nuclear warfare is also saving the world from other monsters on a weekly basis as well...

You've got it backwards: it's because genitalia are censored by law (a law written by the american occupation force after the war, by the way) they had to bypass it with tentacles. Of course, there's always The Dream of the Fisherman's Wife from 1820.

Sorry, I assumed everyone here had either already played it or despised its very existence so much that they would never play it.

Hmm, do we even have spoiler tags here?

You totally have to kill either Kaidan or Ashley.

Oh, I guess we do!

The point is that its OK for Japs to show nukular explosions themselves but its not Ok for invaders that burned two cities to do the same.


Also: Lucky japs... can i get a Japanese version please?
Oh wait the game is shit... belay that.
