Japan bans RAPE games = 10-20% of their games industry.

Aw Jeez, I read Syt's link.

Mistake number one.

Pfft, these are a bunch of big softies who are just going to have to spread out back into the genre later to get some hard sales.

Aw Jeez, I read Syt's link.  Why aren't we nuking this country.

There was a "Have You Found Jesus?" ad banner at the bottom of the page when I went.

And is most definitely not an indicator of any kind of cultural shift or Hod forbid growth.

I'm surprised to find you so judgemental.

Why? I've always taken a hard line of that aspect of Japan. I still love it there, and would go back, could I afford it. (though not indefinitely or anything) Japan has the cultural sophistication of both the Past and The Future. It's what makes it so whacky and interesting.

Japan has the world's last remaining pre-dreadnought battleship.  They are beyond reproach.

Still, what makes their sexual hangups any more problematic than yours?

Yeah, but is it in service?
If so, what's the upgrade suit? What kind of weapons it have and what's its mission?

There is no fucking way in hell Japan have a 100 years old battleship in service.

Did it sunk any russian ships in 1905?

Of course it isn't in service.  Triple-expansion engines are worse than useless these days.  Its mission is to be a museum ship.

It's the Mikasa, the flagship at Tsushima.  From Mikasa's decks, the greatest, most decisive battle of the 20th century was fought and won.
