Interesting discovery while installing BoP UK on German PS3

[Headset]

I,ve got the German Version (USK - 12) of the game and bought it on 04.09.2009. Other shops in Germany listed the Game for 30.09.2009. Don´t know why. I can confirm that in the German (USK)-version some spoken Words like "Adolf Hitler" are faded out. But this is the only thing. On the same DVD is also the English "uncut" Version.You only must set your Systemlanguage to English. I can only say that for the PS3 version of the game.I think all EU Versions are the same Multilanguage DVD.

Hi, hab deine Antwort bzgl. uncut version gelesen. hab da noch ne frage zu: ich kauf mir also die normale deutsche version im laden (media markt, saturn etc.), stelle meine PS3 auf enlische sprache und schon werden im spiel die original insignien des 3 reichs angezeigt bzw. ist hitler nicht mehr aus den zwischensequenzen herausgeschnitten ?! stimmt das so ? das wäre ja ein witz...aber auch cool, weil man dann doch die ganze WKII atmosphäre geniessen kann.

dann hab ich noch ne frage: in den videos werden immer details zu den flugzeugen in blau und rot angezeigt...ich finde das sehr unrealistisch und würde das lieber gern abschalten. ist das über das menü abschaltbar ? oder hängt es vom realismusgrad ab den man spielt ?

danke schonmal für die antwort

gruss

I really find it funny that Hitler's name had to be cut out. At least in history books it's allowed to print his name...

Seriously? I guess if they pretend he didn't exist it makes everything ok?

This is just like classic books that contain racial epithets - some people want to "clean" the books up, and all that is accomplished is ruining the context of the story - the atmosphere, the story, the characters, ect are all diminished by whitewashing contents.

If you want people to see how wrong and ugly something is, you show them the naked truth - you don't clean it up and then present it.
