make it simple.... don't buy games from the japanese company dedicated to electronic games which is sueing these guys (I do not want to commit moral offense to no one), get some exciting, thrilling games that fulfill your wishes because nowadays everybody is so touchy regarding the moral and etc. etc... if the company had moral they would not be creating games where explicit blood is shown, it's not moral for the society to have a company paying a programmer to endanger the mind of people like us, or?
