Well, no. I used OAG in the politics discussion where, as usual, they nitpicked one dodgy article and spent two pages ragging on it. It was the "Get Woke, Go Broke" list, I believe.

You should read up on Japan's view on censorship. Guys saying that Sony has become "America's dog" and that.

Edit: And, as I said, it did a number on smaller companies.

A bad website is a bad website. You can't have one part of well written and sourced correctly.. and have one poorly sourced with a massive political bent. Bad - is bad.

You didn't answer my question about what "Nothing quite like Western views being injected into Japanese culture, eh" means. Your "list" has games censored in JP but not US. But also in US but not JP.

And not wanting to sell 18+ games isn't censorship. It is just not wanting to sell them.

And you do need better sources. If I can grab a random game off the list and see the massive bias required to put it on that list - you messed up. The list is thus corrupted as is the website.

Have a look at the Tweets in this thread. Sony America taking it upon themselves to decide what Japan does and doesn't get. You don't see a problem with that?

One site may be bad, but what about Push Square? Or any other site that covers Sony's censorship policies?

Do a quick Google search. This shit isn't popular.
