They didn't censor her in the Genesis version of 1 and 2. As a matter of fact, the Genesis version showed even more butt crack.

Especially 2, when she's doing her flip kick you can see her entire ass.

It's not like Nintendo went around asking Americans what they did or didn't want to see in their video games. It was their own stupid internal policy.

Tyris butt from Golden Axe 2.

I don't have Genesis Golden Axe 1 on my computer because the game sucks, but go download it and walk upward with Tyris and you'll notice a big difference compared to the arcade (uncensored) version. She also had good butt crack when getting on a bizzarian.

Nah, using the nukes was the best move.

As far as censorship goes, it's almost never about "muh morals". Any company that does so is absurdly naive.

The biggest reason for censorship, especially back then, is preventing overzealous parents from suing them. Video games were very much seen as a children's toy.

Americans really don't have a problem with sex. Our TV shows are filled to burst with it, some even having full on nudity.

It's just that no one thinks those TV shows are for kids.

Video games, for a long while, were marketed as being a kids toy, and the vast majority of games were made to appeal to kids. So when you start trying to make more "grown up" games, there's gonna be some backlash.

Unfortunately, that stigma still persists today, though the people that think video games are just for kids are definitely a small minority.

They were the first to deploy nukes.

When others started getting nukes, suddenly they didn't seem to be as useful, because any strike would see a high risk of retaliation, and nobody wants to be hit by a nuke.

Hiroshima can be debated when it comes to morality. Maybe it was justified and Imperial Japan would have fought to death otherwise, maybe it wasn't, and scores of innoccents were immolated in thermonuclear fire, destroyed by shrapnel, and horribly poisoned, for no good reason.

I'm not sure myself, I wasn't there, hadn't been born yet, just thinking this thread should go back to being about retro asses.

I think it's an absolute shame so many innocents died, but the justification often used is that it was the only way to stop them, an enormous display of power, or millions more would have died.
I don't know how true that would have been, or if it was true, that it justifies the bombs.

I'd say it's pretty true since Japan was still willing to fight after the first bomb was dropped causing us to drop another and then bluff about having a third one.

I think honestly the Federal Government deserved those attacks, not unrelated citizens.

For instance, if all of the CIA were gassed, I'd be skipping in delight, but all those civilian office workers who weren't affiliated with the state, they did nothing to deserve it.

The people seldom have a say in what the Feds do, and frequently they aren't even told of what they're doing. They are coerced and goaded into supporting the state, regardless of how they personally feel about things.

This was best displayed during Vietnam, before the draft was ruled inconstitutional, "go fight in this jungle hell with ill conceived plans or we'll put you in prison."
