PushStartSelect.com : "I walked into a local comic book store the other week to find a toy had been censored. The toy was the General Lee from Dukes of Hazard, and the censor was a piece of paper taped across the top of the car. What it was blocking was the Confederate flag, a portion of the car that made it iconic wasn’t allowed to be seen for some odd reason. A toy….This wasn’t the worse thing either. I know censors often ruin everything on basic cable, but they are now moving to video games and saying we are not allowed to play them anymore?"

Trying to decide the best DOOM game is like deciding who your favorite child is. You love every one of them, imperfections and all."
For the first time since 1994, John Romero has given DOOM II fans a new level. The level is a product to provide support to Ukraine. 100% of the proceeds from the level will go to Red Cross and the UN Central Emergency Response Fund.
Actions that are actually doing something to help. That's really cool. Refreshing to see this after the armies of companies do their grandstanding me-too do-nothing support message online for all to see.
Acclaimed creator John Romero took to Twitter today to announce that he has created a new level for Doom II, and it’s a special one.
Now this is an interesting one. I'm no expert but I don't think that the level was censored, but more like; edited.
Since the purchase of Id by Bethesda, I think that Bethesda bought every IP of Id's but Wolfenstein.
Sure, Wolf 3D was in Rage...or WAS it? Personally, I only saw a low textured blue and grey wall...hmm. Plus Activision published Wolfenstein developed by Raven more or less around the time of the Id buyout and when you add the fact that Wolfenstein wasn't Id's IP in the first place it makes you wonder if they really have the right to make further 'Wolf' games since being bought by Bethesda.
No..........Manhunt 2 was censored.
Bert and Ernie couldn't even live together anymore because of fucking morons of parent groups, church groups etc claimed B & E were "GAY" for doing so, as well as living in sin and would tarnish the delicate minds of our precious fucking youth, and heavens forbid, maybe the kids might think being gay was OK, or even worse ... make their kids gay from simply watching it, where, upon their deaths, they would burn in eternal hellfire. Cant have that happen, Oh No No No. This innocent children's show must be stopped and condemned in the lords name of all that is righteous and saintly. Pathetic.
Poor poor Bert and Ernie, torn apart for evermore by self-righteous morons. Welcome to the 21st century, and the continuation of the devolution of humanity. And people wonder why I am a misanthropist...? ...because they just make it too easy.
"What it was blocking was the Confederate flag, a portion of the car that made it iconic wasn’t allowed to be seen for some odd reason."
For some odd reason? Really?
Also, I really don't think that level was censored.
