5 Video Games Sony Forced To Be Censored 

It's always funny to see how in America nudity in game is taboo yet super violence and gore is super acceptable while in Europe it's the opposite.

when the microsoft version of Conker is more child friendly than Nintendo's version

They should Censor the Emoji Movie.

And yet Sony had no problem with nudity at God of War. Go figure.

A game character cuts off someones head and holds it up as a trophy, no one bats a eye... a woman's breasts bounce for half a sec and everyone loses they're minds. Logic, not even once.

You know what's funny? I remember seeing BMX XXX at my local game rental store, Hastings, when I was a kid. My innocent self almost bought it because all I knew was it was a bike game similar to Matt Hoffman's Pro BMXing 2 on PS2. Little did I know what XXX meant. I think it was too pricy so I skipped over it. What a crazy story that would have been if the game was only a little cheaper. XD

Clock blockers is hilarious

There's a new Sony censorship controversy : Senran Kagura Burst's remake will not have it's "Intimacy Mode" (which is basically a mode where you can grope the girls). The decision was so sudden it *delayed the PS4 release!* Even worse : not only is the Steam release not getting censored, the Reflexion spin-off, which is basically "Intimacy Mode : The Game" and also *Switch* Game (meaning that Nintendo can decide on what should be done with the game what shouldn't), got localized *totally uncensored!* This means that Sony is now *worse than Nintendo when it comes to censorship!* Censored Gaming, you *must* do video on this controversy!

Its interesting how PS fans are usually the ones to tell us how Nintendo is a kiddy console company, yet their Overlords are far more strict, especially in the country where most of the arguing comes from.

And people say Sony don't censor.

The censors are really ridiculous when you see what is so in movies to see. Apart from that there is not for nothing an age restriction and if a game is only for adults is released then this has to be uncensored.

Sony is suffering from boobphobia too.

Sony are the real Clock blockers here

Yeah cause Sony is kid friendly...

US: OMG, tits, censor it! EUROPE: meh. JAPAN: meh. EUROPE: OMG, guns and violence, censor it! US: meh. JAPAN: meh.

It seems like sexual content are always the biggest target of censorship in gaming while over-the-top violence is not anymore.

Each region censors games. Every region, including Japan. It's just what is censored, why, and how that differs. Most video game players are adults, so are the ratings boards stupid or just ignorant? But hey, Australia has zero teen crime, right? They censored bad media and teens no longer commit crimes. They just march and blink in unison. Or here's an idea; have parents teach their kids right and wrong and the difference between reality and fantasy.. And let adults play games uncensored.

Way to be consistent sony.. Also thank you Kojima :)

I didn't even know BMX XXX was on the Gamecube, let alone less censored than the PS2 version...... wow

2:02 Fun fact. All 4 One was originally going to be called 4Play.

Funny how you called Conker Live Reloaded a 360 title , lol

And this is why if you want to make sure your stuff stays uncensored, you release it yourself on PC without having to go through some corporate overlord gatekeeper. If you must, put it out on Steam censored and link a decensor patch.

Translated!! Here is the breast touching dialogue, now in English: 4:18, game menu: 見る = watch 触る = touch 話かける = talk 背伸びやめる = stop pushing to the limit 4.20, player: ちょっと触らせてもらおっと。 = Let's let you have some (breast) touching. 4.23, female character: な、何するんですか！ = Wha... what (the heck) are you doing!? 4.29, player: ...a "D" = a woman with a D-cup bra size pair of breasts

What game is shown with the dragon at @7:42?

And yet some people still claim that Playstation is more mature than Nintendo consoles. At least Nintendo doesn't requests from other companies to censor their games.

Have a video in which you speak of the censors or changes that had the series of Sakura Card Captors ?

Funny how Nintendo, a company well known for having a family friendly image, has the least censorship. While Sony is so afraid to cross any lines. Same with Microsoft with the XBox remake of Conker.

Here's another example of stupid censorship: GTA V is banned here in Saudi Arabia, thats O.K if not for that there's a game same like it that game is Saints Raw the third. Funny thing GTA V is available on Xbox

Cutting someone's head off? Nothing. Beating someone to death with a crowbar? Nothing. The slightest breast bounce? F*ck it. *Censors the entire game* -Sony

God of War's "Bros before Hos" trophy was censored because the gaming media, and snowflakes, hated it.

They force the devs to censor the games thats hella dumb

0:13. It was for the original Xbox. Not the Xbox 360…

No mention of Indigo Prophecy/Fahrenheit? That release was censored in the US on PS2 because it would've been rated AO, but was uncensored in PAL territories. Strangely enough, the PS4 remaster was uncensored but still rated M.

In 4:31 is, as far i know, the only moment that the Breast bounce is actually smart. Because the dialog inflects not in the character, but in the actual player itself! The system is there to free use, but everyone knows that YOU are the perv there Nice one Kojima

Mom: what job do you want to do later ? Me: *Breast Bouncing Supervisor*

So when you say that the european version of twisted metal is censored does that include the uk version too?

2:20 what game?

Hey anyone know the game at 7:42?

I don't mind these games being censored because I'm pretty sure the western side made them to, PlayStation always gave us fan service, with Neir, DOAX3 etc & other reason why region free & imports will always be a thing, I always perfer PC/Sony

And people say Nintendo is too kid friendly

Ok I can understand the clock blockers one lol

Okay, so whats up with the R&C Locked and Loaded title? I have never seen a PAL copy with that name. All the copies of the second title have been Going Commando. I think I have seen a flyer in one game case advertising R&C2 as "Locked and Loaded", but I though that was either for the American audience, or a title they changed last minute.

Nice job on the vid keep up the good work 👍

Stealth Bastard Deluxe was similarly renamed to Stealth Inc: A Clone in the Dark for Sony platforms.

4:36 I MISS OLD KOJIMA!!!!!

God of War Ascension didn't interest me much, but i was thinking about buying it anyway since i am a fan of the series. But when i found out that they had censored it here in Europe, i thought : fuck it, not gonna buy it.

You know how much I hate censorship? So much so that I changed my profile picture just to say "fuck you censorship, I can do what I want!

kinda weird that my copy of bmx xxx is uncensored well except for the short strip tease.

Ahh how was the game at 7:42 alled again? I remember that it was quite an eyecatcher before the PS4 released

Pretty much every R&C title, especially in the US.

Wait a minute bmx xxx was censored on the "manly ps2 cool kids console", but not on the " lunch box kiddie toy nintendo console" ?!

I wonder if any of the DMC games got changed in that particular way

It's official: I have no concept of Nintendo's standards, anymore.

It's funny how when he says "Sony is not alone in doing things like this. All major companies have done similar things in the past" And then proceeds to name only Microsoft and seems to purposely not name Nintendo for some reason.

Couldn't focus for the first 20 seconds, was trying to figure out of that was the Persona 5 BGM playing.

Censored in gaming is like wtf.

i'm not native english speaker, what does the ratchet e clank names mean ?

Stealth Bastard was also forced to change to Stealth Inc. Too bad, as the former is a way cooler name.

Lol was their innuendo in the panned ratchet and clank movie?

So wait the suggestive titles of the ratchet and clank games had to be changed for europe yet bmx xxx was fine? Also for europe? I... I don't get it dood... "Breast bouncing supervisor" now that's the ideal job

Thanks for the effort on the videos; could you kindly cover any outstanding censorship in Latin America. Thanks for any reply.

I saw some Knack footage in the end. Don't tell me they censored Knack! They won't touch Knack 2, will they? Oh say it isn't so!

Clock Blockers is a hilarious title.

They could had use " A Crack Back in Time."

It's completely ironic because NINTENDO is normally the ones that censors games on their platforms. My oh my. How the tables have turned.

Im still sad that rachet and clank's names were made benign instead of sticking with the great funny theme

FACT: There is NOT EVEN ONE gaming platform company (Sony, Microsoft, or Nintendo) that's willing to have anything to do with AO (Adults Only)-rated titles! I believe that the reason is that AO-rated titles suffer a similar stigma to NC-17-rated films. You see, the leading reason for the ESRB to rate a game "AO" is some sort of strong sexual content. By the same token, the leading reason for the MPAA (Motion Picture Association of America) to rate a film "NC-17" is again: some sort of strong sexual content. It is due to this sexual connotation that: most brick-and-mortar stores refuse to carry AO-rated titles, and ALL gaming consoles (PS4, Nintendo Switch, etc.) absolutely REFUSE to accept AO-rated titles for their platforms. This means that pretty much the only way to buy an AO-rated title is to buy it for PC as a Digital Download. This can be from Nutaku, MangaGamer, the games' own websites, or even Steam. Here's a link to the Steam store page of one AO-rated game: "Hatred": store.steampowered.com/app/341940/Hatred/

Conker is an original xbox remake, not xbox 360.

There was a clip of The Witness towards the end... What could POSSIBLY be censored in that game??

Really funny to me that nintendo of all people was okay with BMX XXX

It's funny that in America standards don't allow nudity and in Europe they do but when it comes to violence it's the other way around

You might want to share with us what they did to Heavy rain as well as Beyond 2 souls, also some shit regarding the new release of Yakuza and the missing goons.

The new Ratchet and Clank reboot has no replay-value, even with new game+. It was a let-down.

We need more self-publishing

I don't understand why the games industry still insists on self-regulating as if they're selling toys instead of acting like every other media.

Why did Hohokum appear briefly in here, lol?

I wonder if they push boundarys cause they know it will be toned down. You want 75 aim for 100 & they'll knock you back down to 60.

why is it name bmx xxx what cuz its based on the movie

Am i the only one shocked that Sony censors games that Nintendo leaves untouched?

Oh

Oh man, the 90's... sometimes I forget how things were back then... have we evolved and I stopped paying attention???..

Hideo: Yare yare daze..

acclaim is responsible for the mortal kombat series

A little a ironic that Sony is more strict on censorship than Nintendo of all companies

It would be nice if GTA was A rated but it would lose sales

It really pissed me off how Conker was censored on Xbox. You'd think Microsoft would be less strict than Nintendo but nope! I bet it had something to do with the Hot Coffee bullshit that was going on close to the game's release.

What the fuck. R&C Locked and Loaded is called *"GOING COMMANDO"* in foreign countries? Why the fuck? What?

God damn! Bmx xxx is pronounced bmx triple x. I rented the game on Xbox no censorship at all.

I wanna see why Ape Escape had 2 English Dubs?

Acclaim takes BMX XXX to: Microsoft: "Sure! Bring it in! Boobs and all!" Nintendo: "We don't care. Do what you want." Sony: "No! Cut that nudity out! We will never allow bare breasts to appear on our consoles, you lewd monsters!" (Although to be fair, BMX XXX wasn't a good game, nudity or not.)

Sony didn't force the Europe versions to be censored, that was Europe's motive. You just didn't have enough things in the video.

Is that Persona 5 I hear in the background? *cracks knuckles* Welp, time for a heist.

Such a great name gone to waste lol "Clock Blockers"

Couple of this decision actually make sense

A lot less suggestive? Full Frontal Assault?!

I don't see why people get so upset that Live and Reloaded had slightly more censorship than the original game. Mechanically and visually it's the definitive version of Bad Fur Day, and the multiplayer wasn't half bad either.

When Nintendo is the open publisher... Sony is doing something soooo damm wrong

This is why I’m going to get a Switch instead of a PS4/PS5. Nintendo is ACTUALLY FINE with this stuff, as opposed to Sony, who forces companies to censor their games for the PETTIEST of reasons. I mean, even Kojima agrees!

im in the hospital

if i made a game i'd say, take it or leave it. don't want our original entertainment? then don't take it. or just change the ratings?
