@get2sammyb Because that's not what he wanted to make. Censorship is bad. Saying, "oh just make sonething else" defeats the purpose of free speech and makes you part of the problem.
@Flaming_Kaiser "13 years old is legal there." It really isn't. Japanese law is far more complicated, with almost all prefectures setting the age of consent at 18, or even 20.
I'm currently playing through 1 on the HD Double Pack and loving it. Need to get a move on and finish them both, so I can play this as soon as it launches!
"May we recommend that Takaki and his team focus on actually making a good game." They have. You're just too busy focusing on the sexual stuff and claiming that this automatically makes the game bad.
I remember when costumes were fun unlockables for beating the Resident Evil games, not for paying extra money. Due to Capcom's scummy DLC practices, I'm not sure if I'll bother.
No it doesn't. I want to like it because I'm a massive Streets of Rage fan, but everything I've seen/read seems terrible to me. The Remake by Bomber Games was a great sequel that seems far better suited to being called Streets of Rage 4. But perhaps that's just nostalgia talking.
I must be the target market. My PSVR collection so far includes all those games, bar Doom. Looking forward to Tetris Effect when it's physical, and maybe Moss, too!
Wow, Sony have seriously hit the self-destruct button, being taken over by offended Americans. They're an absolute shambles right now, and an insult to the memory of what they used to be.
"Given how perfectly the platform holder has navigated this generation, we have to trust that it knows what it’s doing..." That's when it was still a Japanese company. Since it became an American company, I'm losing faith.
I'm guessing it's Sony moving their main headquarters to America that's causing this. Why are Americans so sensitive? And why does the rest of the world have to suffer because of one country? I thought we'd finally moved past the 90s in gaming.

Re: Borderlands: Game of the Year Edition - Back with a Bang
I remember playing this for a few hours with a friend years ago, and thought it was one of the most boring games I'd ever had to sit through.
Re: Space Channel 5 VR Developer Searching for Ulala's Voice Actor
Genuinely, has the world stopped using the word "Actress"?
Re: Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 Is Selling an In-Game Sledgehammer for £25
Can Activision please just die already?!
Re: Senran Kagura Producer Quits, Largely Blames Rise in Gaming Censorship
@viciousarcanum You do realise they're not real people, right?

Re: Streets of Rage 4 Looks Great in New Gameplay Trailer, But Platforms Are Still Unconfirmed
Still not sold on the art style, and the new enemy juggling is a bit strange. However, I'll wait until we've seen more before I pass judgement.
Re: Persona 5: The Royal Revealed for PS4, Teaser Shows a New Female Character
An enhanced remake on the same console the original is on? Sounds like a cash-grab to me.
Re: Sony Reveals New Alpine Green DualShock 4 PS4 Controller
Looks awesome, and it's out on my birthday...
Re: Judgment Sales in Japan Halted After Voice Actor Arrest, Western Release Under Consideration

Re: Shenmue III Finally Looks Like a Real Video Game
I'm currently playing through 1 on the HD Double Pack and loving it. Need to get a move on and finish them both, so I can play this as soon as it launches!
Re: Yakuza Studio Has Gone the Extra Mile for Judgment's Localisation
Fantastic to hear! I was already super excited about this game; now it's a definite day one buy!
Re: Incoming Tales of Vesperia Patch Looks to Fix a Few Standout Bugs on PS4
Why does a remaster need a patch? Can companies not program properly anymore?
Re: The LEGO Movie 2 Videogame - A Factory Built Sequel That Plays It Safe
@Porco It's not the games being stale that bothers me; it's them being buggy, unfinished pieces of crap that bothers me.
Re: Judgment Sounds Like a Superb Return to Kamurocho, According to First English Previews
Probably the game I'm most looking forward to this year.
Re: Assassin's Creed Odyssey New Game Plus Arrives Next Week with Big February Patch
@Nightcrawler71 I did! Absolutely loving it so far, and I've only just got off the beginning island.
Re: Assassin's Creed Odyssey New Game Plus Arrives Next Week with Big February Patch
It's currently £26.99 at Argos. I've got a £10 gift card, and get 10% staff discount; effectively making it £15. Seriously tempting...
Re: Enormous Lay Offs Leave Hundreds at Activision Blizzard Out of Work
Utter scum. Just so the higher ups and investors can keep swimming in piles of cash.
Re: Charming PSVR Adventure Ghost Giant Launches Physically and Digitally This Spring in Europe
Looks sort of like Tearaway VR. Consider me intrigued.
Re: We Can't Imagine Sony's Happy with This Dead or Alive Xtreme 3: Scarlet Trailer
There's nothing particularly OTT in this trailer. Are you sure you're just not overly prudish, Sammy?
Re: EA Says Battlefield V Didn't Meet Sales Expectations, Despite Topping 7 Million Copies
I'm sure it still made a profit. Greedy shareholders are to blame for it being a "disappointment".
Re: EA Confirms New Need for Speed, Plants vs. Zombies Titles Coming This Year
Poor Popcap. Another company destroyed by EA.
Re: Senran Kagura 7EVEN Impossible to Release After Sony Censorship Row
"May we recommend that Takaki and his team focus on actually making a good game."
They have. You're just too busy focusing on the sexual stuff and claiming that this automatically makes the game bad.
Re: Indie Bin: Senran Kagura, Switchblade, FutureGrind
What an insulting way to review games.
Re: Days Gone's Amazon UK Exclusive Steelbook Looks Sexy
Strange definition of 'sexy'.
Re: Poll: Did You Buy the Resident Evil 2 Remake?
I remember when costumes were fun unlockables for beating the Resident Evil games, not for paying extra money. Due to Capcom's scummy DLC practices, I'm not sure if I'll bother.
Re: Retro Resident Evil 2 Skins Will Feed Your PSone Nostalgia
Are you seriously telling me that they couldn't get these finished in time to put on the disc?
Re: Streets of Rage 4 Continues to Look Rad in New Screenshots
No it doesn't. I want to like it because I'm a massive Streets of Rage fan, but everything I've seen/read seems terrible to me. The Remake by Bomber Games was a great sequel that seems far better suited to being called Streets of Rage 4. But perhaps that's just nostalgia talking.
Re: For an Extra $20 You Can Unlock Nitros Oxide Early in Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled
Disgusting behaviour by Activision, as usual. Hopefully no one will buy the more expensive version, so companies will stop this crap.
Re: Yakuza Studio's Judge Eyes Renamed Judgment
Shame it wasn't an announcement for Yakuza 3 - 5, but I'm looking forward to this.
Re: It's an Interesting Time to Be Posting The Last of Us: Part II Reaction Trailers
@FullbringIchigo Ditto. The first game was good, but overrated. The narrative was top notch, but the gameplay was so poor.
@ztpayne7 Yep, we exist. I'm not interested at all. Might eventually get the GotY edition when it's super cheap.
Re: Persona 5 and Persona 3 Dancing DLC Lineup Costs More Than Both Games Put Together
As expected from Atlus.
Re: European PSVR Mega Pack Bundle Offers Sony's Headset with Five Top Games
I must be the target market. My PSVR collection so far includes all those games, bar Doom. Looking forward to Tetris Effect when it's physical, and maybe Moss, too!
Re: Sony Showed Gran Turismo Sport Running in 8K at 120 Frames-Per-Second
@spoonard Sounds awesome!
Re: Sony Showed Gran Turismo Sport Running in 8K at 120 Frames-Per-Second
Still on HD. More than good enough. Still usually buy DVDs anyway, because they're cheaper, and work on more devices.
Re: Darksiders III - An Entertaining Adventure That's Stuck in the Past
I loved II on the Wii U. If it's similar to that, then I'll love III too!
Re: Sony Reportedly Bans PSN Account Over Cultural Misunderstanding
@naruball Not seeing anything.
Re: Sony Reportedly Bans PSN Account Over Cultural Misunderstanding
@naruball Where?
Re: Sony Reportedly Bans PSN Account Over Cultural Misunderstanding
Wow, Sony have seriously hit the self-destruct button, being taken over by offended Americans. They're an absolute shambles right now, and an insult to the memory of what they used to be.
Re: Sony Censorship Policy Removes Crude Items from Dead or Alive Xtreme 3: Scarlet
American "freedom" strikes another PlayStation game.
Re: Darksiders III Story Trailer Sends Fury After the Seven Deadly Sins
Loved Darksiders II, still need to beat I. Consider me hyped!
Re: Reaction: Sony's Decision to Skip E3 2019 Is Confounding, But One We Can't Judge Yet
"Given how perfectly the platform holder has navigated this generation, we have to trust that it knows what it’s doing..."
That's when it was still a Japanese company. Since it became an American company, I'm losing faith.
Re: Spyro: Reignited Trilogy - A Platforming Treasure Wonderfully Restored
Damn. This would have been a day 1 buy if they'd released the full trilogy physically.
Re: Huge Assassin's Creed Odyssey PS4 Patch 1.07 Increases Level Cap, Adds Gear Customisation, New Quest, and More
On the one hand, it's great that Ubisoft are improving lots of stuff, but on the other, why not do this BEFORE releasing the game?
Re: PQube Is Done with PS Vita, Says It's a Bird That Can't Fly
Seems ridiculous that there are publishers who want to support it, but Sony is actively trying to kill it.
Re: Red Dead Redemption 2's Sluggish Controls Analysed
So, bad controls are an intentional part of design now?
Re: Fallout 76's Gigantic Day One Patch Is Bigger Than the 45GB Game
That's disgusting. At least attempt to finish the game before releasing it.
Re: Guide: Spyro: Reignited Trilogy FAQ - Everything You Need to Know
I can imagine Activision's ad:
"Buy the remake of Spyro 1 for £30/$40, and for a limited time, download the rest of the trilogy for free!"
Re: PS Vita's All-Time US Best-Sellers Show Why Sony Binned System
Wow. And Americans constantly say that people in the UK have poor taste in games. It's true, but apparently not limited to here.
Re: Spyro: Reignited Trilogy Still Requires Content Download for Second and Third Games
So Activision are pulling another Pro Skater 5? Oh well, I still have the originals.
Re: Japanese Developer Sheds More Light on Sony Censorship Scenario
I'm guessing it's Sony moving their main headquarters to America that's causing this. Why are Americans so sensitive? And why does the rest of the world have to suffer because of one country? I thought we'd finally moved past the 90s in gaming.
