US gets the Uncensored RE 4
I was just reading my EGM and I was rather suprised. Japan the land where they have animated sex and gore that puts most US rated-R movies to shame is getting the censored Resident Evil 4. While the US is getting the uncut decapitating version.
Am I the only one that finds this odd?

Japan gets the censored version? What the hell? Isn't this the same country that has half their video game outlets devoted to hentai dating sims?
Maybe it's because of some Japanese custom about a certain type of violence in the game. |

hmm... that IS odd... maybe they only accept drawn extreme gore. its probably some culture thing, or they dont like graphic images of the living dead...

Take that, Japanese Video Game Industry! Now you'll know what it's like to get a game that's missing vital gaming content!

the main edit is decapitation. I would say more, but that might ruin the awsome

I've also heard the american version of DMC3's normal mode is the Japanese' hard mode.
How strange. The same japanese industry didn't give us the real SMB2 because it was 'too hard' |

Do you know if anything else was cut from the game? The Novistador's acid bath attack might be worthy. Was decapitation removed from the Japanese version of the REmake? Because it was in that game as well.

Anything that reveals bones is undoutably censored. So the body probably just boils completely away, rather than revealing the skull.
