    Only in Europe...damn censoring pussy bastards. Here in America, we like our blood and gore. Then again, we did get the censored version of Sacred. It makes little sense.

    That should be roll, not role.

    I also haven't seen either Kill Bill yet, but I'm seeing vol 1 on Thursday night, and vol 2 on Friday night. I'm all for bloodfests, not because I'm inherently violent or anything, but I like good action. That said, I probably wouldn't like Freddy vs Jason. I don't know how to differentiate between "good" and "bad" violence in movies, other than I just know which ones I probably will and won't like.

    Americans are pussies too. They can take a violent game or movie but when its a real world of shit and when the body bags start coming home you shit yourselves.

    Your Italian is wrong I think. Leccare is an infinitve, non existent verb, you should say "Mangi" if your talking to a person or "Mangiate" if your talking to a group e.g. "Mangi figa!" or my preferance "Mangi la mia merda!"

    Dammnit!

    It rules. Watch it, watch it as soon as possible. Oh wait, you already are. It's a good movie, anyway. It has great lines, but you can't expect different from Tarentino.

    I'm sure you're right. My Italian is pretty broken, mostly only good for swearing, and that badly. I have excellent pronuciation, though, and I'm taking an Italian class next semester, and then hopefully spending next spring in Italy. Anyway, I can understand it better than I speak it, like the last thing you said was "Suck my shit!"

    I'm pretty sure the CIA has somethng to do with Germany's cencorship laws. Who knows what the sight of blood might trigger in a young Hun? Remember that little thing called world warII? Yeah, we don't need to give them any ideas with stuff like, GTA3, or Unreal Tournament. They might win next time if we start training their children with violent video games.

    ...or perhaps the people who in the end suffered as hard as any other, besides those now dead, the germans - might have something on their mind when they want to embrace avoidance from slaughter and the cultural aspects of goregames.

    I think Monkey's right on this one. I'm not going to insult either Europeans or Americans, because I don't really care. I don't see the point in arguing over this, or even calling people pussies.... except Chunkers, but that's because he's got a DAMN fine pussy. So yea, I remain adimantly neutral. I don't think it should really matter why/who censors the movies/games/etc, as long as they don't do it where ever I live. :p

    Personally I must say that I'm happy that they take out certain things in certain media - for example I wont find childporn when opening the morning paper, or pictures that will damage personal integrity - the later being self censor.

    I'm sure some germans really like the fact that C&C came with black motoroil instead of red red blood, or that Ninja Gaiden removes the splatter.

    It should also be said that without the gore you can sell the game with a lower age rating, and such perhaps gain more buyers, or not, buy you might want to try out the former.

    ---

    Now for some perspective, the fact that people cared that Janed Jacksson showed her breast (and no tthe nipple) for 2 seconds on TV - I actually watched the superbowl and didn't really think about what happend at all, it was just a boring halftime show (I did mute it under kid rock). The day after what is the word on the streets, well something like this "america is in turmoil after Janed shot her breast on TV".

    Kisses were forbidden through self censor in hollywood for some years

    as for games, time for some soul and paper searching - read the latest Edge and check up the thoughts from Redeye.

    Censorship, like pretty much everything else, has it's place. Too little is bad, too much is worse.

    Censorship should all be self-censorship. If a newspaper or game contains something you don't want to see, you don't get that newspaper game or whatever.
    Censorship should be based much more on market forces than it is. Sex and Violence are parts of life, very common and large parts of life, but for some reason in media they have to be hidden away.
    However, yes, printing childporn should be prevented. If the Germans want their different version, they should be able to inform Westwood and Westwood may make it to sell more copies. It should not be governmentally enforced that they cannot sell the gore version.
