how can they justify releasing an uncensored version in the USA and a censored one here.

If theres one country where any kind of violence in a videogame should not be allowed, its the USA.

Has the world gone mad?

Well shame that, its off my list.
I'll buy Manhunt 2 cause Rockstar tried, but companies that fold this easy and treat us like kids i'm not going to be a part of.
Any how got Killer 7 and that will be the first and last, i Do Not support Censorship and no one that does

I call BS on this its called damage control to take the flak away from Rising Star Games. Also I have lost all respect for SUDA 51.

If they're worried about the blood, why not give the option to have it turned on an off, dependant upon the parental control settings in the Wii?

Nice that means I wont get this game. Censored games is a no no. I wont waste my money on this.

BOYCOTT NO MORE HEROES!

Japan has strict regulations, most of Europe doesn't.
What happened Suda, I thought 'punk wasn't dead' and NMH would be "more violent than Manhunt".
Buy trying to get the casuals all you're getting is the loss of your true market, the hardcore.

I'll cancel my pre-order. I'm very disappointed.

Will not buy this game now, Killer 7's blood effects were intriguing and gave the title part of its soul. Censor the game and YOU LOSE! No buy from me.

I am very, very disappointed. Ridiculous violece was part of the game's unique style, and most important, soul. And I was really, truly looking forward to this game. Thanks Suda 51, you just ruined your game.

I will not be buying this game now.

THING ABOU****CHING KILL BILL, WITHOUT THE BLOOD. WHICH MEANS ****. THIS IS LIKE IT.

Lol I men****ching Kill bill without the blood, which means loss. sry for the caps

I remember how Suda said that this game was going to be even more gorier than Manhunt 2 and I was so looking forward to it. Now I wont buy it because its the inferior version of the game we are recieving.

"The US version of the title will include all the original in-game gore."

... so I'll buy the US version then. I'm very disappointed. Censorship sucks big time!

The broadly growing Wii market my ***. Does that not apply to the US in some way? Suda, you lost a costumer. No more no more heroes for me.

Good job we wont buy it then. Give us the american one with the blood instead.

Thats alot of bs right there. No blood=no buy.

5000+ people signed a petition to recieve the same version as the American one. Think twice before you are giving us this "original" censored game Rising Star Games. For your own good.

When I first found out that gore was gone I was very, very dissapointed. Now that I know it was the creator himself i am stunned.

But does it have other content then?

was so excited for this game, but wont be buying now, censorship coupled with BS excuses = no sale... as has been said, "no more sales"

NICE, REAL NICE. I was waiting patiently for this game and now I just give up. Screw Suda all together.

same here i wont get the game now when its censored

We get the game last here in Europe + it's the ungory edition. No thanks I pass!

I hope you change you mind because I wont be buying the censored one.

then the buyers will choose to not buy the game

no buy for me then.

Don't force me to download it illegally and modify my wii Suda,
I want to be able to give you my money fairly and enjoy it as a mature product.

Yes I dont want to import this game, PLEASE SUDA & RISING STAR GAMES, BE ON OUR SIDE AND RELEASE THE UNCENSORED EDITION. MAKE US ADMIRE YOU!

Okay nice... Europeans s*rewed again. Not gonna buy this. RSG and Suda 51 just lost ALOT of respect.

OMG THERES NO GORE IM NOT BUYING IT ANYMORE

you 12 year olds need to grow up and realize blood doesn't make a good game.

i will be buying it because blood or not, it is a good game and worthy of being part of my collection.

Blood does make a game like this. It's a part of its style so zip it 8 year old pony lover.

It doesn't matter if it has blood or not, cos it's the gameplay that counts, and it looks ace. BUT it would have been much more simple just to have the option for blood, cos it makes it much more satisfying. Anyway, with the amount of swearing and violence in it already, I wouldn't imagine that the people buying it would mind the blood.

i bet theres loads of younger people out there who want this game now that its censored.

After all red steel had no blood in it and was still a good game

I will not be buying this now...
shame really, as i thought it would be a good example of this so called 'broadly growing wii market'. It grows in more ways than one you know, older, younger... etc, i'm 22 and if i want to see some over the top violence i'll be looking elsewhere. it's not just about gore, it's about artistic integrity for me...

Yay for us, we get the game last, fully censored and they expect us to pay nearly double what the US pay!! Who do they think they'll kid into buying this!! Hardcore gamers? Not a chance in hell. Casual gamers? Again no chance.

Saying Europeans cant handle blood but Americans can is just plain racist!! And hiding behind Rising Star's back while fans raged at them was the last straw. Suda51, you sir are a disgrace. Not buying.

no blood no sales in europe !lots of people had this game has priority! now they will buy another game for PS3 or XBOX 360 !! there are a lot of new releases at the same time has NO MORE HEROES! and lots of people will modded the WII just to play the usa UNCUT version! what about that SUDA 51? thats what that stupid decision is going to do!

Make sense... not
I'll just get DMC 4 instead when it comes out.

@ 42
>Saying Europeans cant handle blood but Americans can is just plain racist!!

think before you type you imbecile.

If you want to see some blood, go slit your wrists.

Thanks for not supporting a good third party game, guys!

I am boycotting this game now because if we dont, we will keep getting screwed in Europe.

I dont give a f about supporting a good game while its censored=not good. Go and buy 10 copies american because I dont care about supporting sales of a censored game.

I second this

I got this game in america .its my favorite thing ever. if the censored one has black blood or whatnot . that would also be really cool . even more stylized I would think . but if its just the coins it will still rule . the game is over the top action . I cant get rid of my ***** !!!

Damn this... not buying now...

**** Suda and **** his bull****. If I'm gonna get NMH, I promise you all right here right now that I'll get it by means that will make sure that Suda or anyone else doesn't get any profit from it (except for maybe some poor chinese fisherman).

We must fight to have the uncensored version of the game in Europe!!! Sign this petition http://www.petitio....html
We have already over 1500 signature

This game looks so cool, except in Europe where for some reason kids are forced to buy 18 rated games so the blood has been removed (I guess they will get a shock when they cut off their friends arms copying the game) yes thats right in europe kids look 18, so we have to censor games. But not films for some reason...

Even though blood doesn't make a good game, I'm still very dissapointed, why should America ALWAYS get the good things out of games? Seriously?

This was one reason I wanted the game, but now I'm not so sure...

When do these video game companies ever give up their thinking in regional territories? It's a shame that our world with all its progress in globalization is so antiquated when you're looking at the video game market. Supporting the broadly growing Wii market, heh. I tell you what, that's just a marketing strategy... Less violence > lower rating by BBFC, OLFC, PEGI, USK etc. > More adults will allow their kids to play that game > higher sales. The cheerless fact is that No More Heroes never was meant to be a game played by kids... Well I won't buy a censored version, I'm really fed up with the situation here in Europe. We're almost always the last ones to be able to buy a game (besides the Australians), we have to pay higher prices than American gamers and we get censored games... No thank you!

In SUDA 51s infinite wisdom he has cost himself a customer. I was actually gonna buy this until I heard about this ridiculous decision. to quote Jim earlier "Suda51, you sir are a disgrace. Not buying." and neither will I

I can't believe this.I'd been really looking forward to this game. I won't be buying this now. It's completely bull****. They could have given the option of blood instead of completely sensoring it out. I won't buy this because the wii isn't just for kids. I'd like for more games like this to come out. I dont intend to only play mario and wii sports for the next 5 years. I want some real games. I want some GTAs

A big thanks to everyone who feels we can't be trusted with a bit of blood and that are minds are so easily damaged.

Thanks for looking out for us!

Cheers!

“The sales point of this game is action. Both I and Wada san have concentrated on making the best possible action game for the Nintendo Wii."

Really? Then why do the reviewers complain about 40% of the game being spent trying to [get to the game]...? How is that the best possible action, when clearly the assassination missions are great and the rest is awful? Watch the video review at IGN, for some ghastly details that belong back i*****, at best.

I was willing to tolerate all that, and was just about the pre-order the game, for the style, gore, etc, when I found this, looking for an official release date. But now...? No. I bought a Wii for THIS game, and THIS is how you thank me, Suda? What the HELL are you thinking? Do you EXPECT european gamers to buy it, now that you've removed one of the main reasons to tolerate and buy this very flawed game?

BOYCOTT [PAL] NO MORE HEROES!

"i*****,"

That would be the auto-censorship of... numbers, in case someone wonders what that was about. Nineteen Ninety four, is what I was trying to write.

The gameplays still there but without the gore it feels like the game has lost it's edge and attitude it's a damn shame. If i'd known my copy would be censored before i brought it i probably wouldn't have bothered with it.

Was in two minds whether or not I should buy this, Suda 51 just made the decision a lot easier. Boycott this toned down rubbish.

was really looking forward to this title, there are only a few types of games I like and with the limited number of titles out for wii, I have played the majority of the better ones. when I heard this was censored I thought I’m not that shallow as to not purchase the game for the lack of blood so like a complete muggins I bought it, after about 15 mins of playing I completely regretted it. I’ve seen vids on youtube of the yanks version, and the whole games is supposed to look like a manga cartoon and the blood looks brilliant. Completely ruins the feel of the game. Although I don’t agree with it I could see why the BBFA banned manhunt 2, after that kid in Leicester got murdered. But this is a comedy game, with cartoon graphics, it’s stupid. Seeing as it was the choice of the developer and not of the BBFA to censor this game, personally I think that it’s a publicity stunt and the uncut version will be released later.
I know it’s a bit naughty, but I feel I have no choice, after this and Manhunt, I think I’m gonna trade this in and get my wii chipped so I can download the US versions. Which means I will probably never pay for a wii game again. Big losses not only for Suda 51 but also for Nintendo.

They could of had an option to turn the blood on or off.

In Australia on wii, we get manhunt 2 banned outright, now this bs. if madword gets banned or is censored i'm pawning my Wii. Why should i keep it. i can play Gears 2, dead rising any number of mature 360 or ps3 games completely intact. Boycott this game. don't put up with censorship for no reason. if you boycott and their sales are garbage then the next game they won''t be so quick to censor, will they. paternalistic jerks, at least Rockstar had the balls to try and get it through. Suda51 what a joke he acts all hard. "gorier than manhunt 2" then censors his own game, what a lightweight. they didn't even try to get it through. No more heroes. yes there are but Suda51 is not one of them
