While true, you didn't mention how much it's been (ab)used for marketing reasons. And honestly: an enemy shot in slow motion with copious amounts of gore hasn't anything to do with creativity. But a lot with getting press.
Acting against censorship is one thing. Being critic about what and how the industry is trying to sell their products is another. Somehow, somewhere, the second part got lost.

Go ahead and do so. If I remember correctly, the playboy still can't be sold openly without a cover that hides everything on your side of the border, correct? Oh, and we still laugh about that Jackson / Timberlake stunt which achieved that every liveshow on US TV get's delayed a few seconds.

That has nothing to do with the Constitution itself; that's righteous assholes managing to get their way despite what the law of the land says. And the bitch of it is even the authors of the Constitution were assholes who wrote about equality and freedom and then still pulled the shit they did with women and minorities.

That sounds about right. I couldn't really think of a good way to respond to that so I just didn't.

Also, it doesn't matter whether someone thinks an enemy shot in slow motion with copious amounts of gore has nothing to do with creativity, it's fucking awesome and much better than some of the shit we can see in movies that consist of real people, though actors, pretending as hard as they can that they're in pain.


Do we win?

Copious amounts of gore is rather vague, it can actually be a realistic depiction of blood and flesh ejected through an exit wound which would probably put this on roughly the same level as the slowmo face punch from raging bull that everything ever involving boxing has ripped off or it could be a ridiculously over the top instance where the blood goes pssst in slow motion, the victim turns to the camera covering it in blood which then drains off forming the title of the game which would put the scene on roughly the same level as 70s schlock horror

God I'd love the watch the German cut of Kill Bill !
Beatrix getting out of the Truck =>cut to Hanzo dialog=>Beatrix sitting on the plane=> Roll credits...

Can't get the whole German censorship overboard thing , I can join the army at 18 yet I can't watch depiction of combat events in a freaking video game.
Don't get how or why should the government intervene in such matter aside from slapping an M ratting all over it.

Let's just wait for the Australian approved release.

So if you imported an uncensored version into Australia or Germany or wherever, is it illegal to own that copy?

Yes, and The Party will hunt you down and send you to a ... re-education facility.

I just hope nothing like what happened last year with Modern Warfare 2 where the game was nearly banned because of that airport killing stage video.

Better do it now, before that small minority make a "Hot coffee" style shitstorm, costing them a lot more money than it would to pull the talibans out right now? I can understand them being pussies :)
