yeah it also suprised me,but they should do it more often like this,so noone feels left out :P

Aren't Europe slighty stricter than America when it comes to censorship?  That might have something to do with it

^hmm im not so sure if theyre stricter,thats why i asked it,it might be the reason though

censorship in europe ???? well I don't know all europe but in france when it comes to boobies and F bombs you don't have a single bip or overlay in a movie.... hell you even have soft porn on free antena TV every now and then... now video games I would expect the same... I personally don't pay really attention to that... it just pisses me off in the US when I watch pulp fiction or a show to hear bips all the time... talking about that you have a fun and informative documentary call FUCK about the F bomb and the FCC

America is a polically correct country and the crime rate is not exactly low like it is in Japan

oh yeah how about modification of original art creation ??? freedom of speech ??? I mean it's simple in france they do it another way instead of censoring they don't allow the channels to broadcast certain ratings before a certain hour at which a kid of that age is supposedly not in front of the TV... makes more sens to me... and honestly it should be up to the parents to decide what their kids can hear and see... ratings being there to make them aware of the content... if behind you censor it what's the point of the rating ???

sorry for the off topic lol... but doesn't it bother you to have those beeps and those lame blurry insertion in movies you like when they are on TV??? and honestly you see more violence in everyday news than most movies, even commercial are sexually oriented and are on TV at all time almost....
