Armageddon was or almost became illegal here when it came out while it was such a pixelfest. Powpowpow Powpowpow .

@whimsical Wow. I remember some people, nations... probably like Germany really overreacted to the game. Censorship was terrible, green blood to make people into zombies etc. Probably some content was removed, too...
Really... fuck censorship. -
Edit: after research perplexity said this: No, Carmageddon was not illegal in the Netherlands, but it was certainly "almost illegal" in the sense that there was significant political pressure to ban it.While other countries like Germany and Brazil implemented strict bans or censorship laws, the Netherlands maintained a more liberal stance, though not without heated debate.

@whimsical So... wow... There's even a Wiki dedicated to the game's censorship: https://censorship.fandom.com/wiki/... .

@D-4got10-01 imagine, spongebob got censored. We had once Johnny Bravo and a series where the Devel was within with a red naked butt all the time. Donald Duck killed goofy (doofy?) also in one episode by throwing him in the water with an anchor. Everything was so much more fun. No panties in skull girls anymore. Never heard of that game but blasphemy!!

@whimsical Yup. 'Johnny Bravo', 'Donald Duck', 'Bugs Bunny', 'Cow & Chicken', 'Dexter's Laboratory' all great cartoons.
Haven't played 'Skullgirls' but I've looked up a video, && know what was supposedly censored... Gals had very short skirts... no idea why they'd see the need to censor the upskirt panty shots.
I've skipped SpongeBob, for some reason. Perhaps it never played over here.

Carmageddon is coming back, nice. Title is 'Carmageddon Rogue Shift' && looks like it has borrowed a bit of gameplay from 'Burnout' series... or so it would seem judging by the video:

Here's hoping it'll be much better than 'Carmageddon Max Damage'.
