Third one definitely had blood and fatalities. With a Konami Code you could unlock one button fatalities. Good times. Unless you had increased the time to enter a fatality and did a stage fatality on a stage without one. Then you had to wait a looooong time for the opponent to fall over.

True. Half Life 1 was awful in German. All the marines were robots. And when you shot a friendly human character they sat down on the ground shaking their head.

Same thing was done in Counter Strike when it went commercial, making it really hard to know whether someone is crouching or dead out of the game.

Patches to put the blood back into games were immensely popular. You'd often find them on the same sites you'd find cracks on.

And of course the effect all the censorship had was that having the latest and greatest most brutal game was more important than having a fun game. You were the king of the schoolyard if you could give the other kids Blood.

Bin nie weit gekommen, aber ich habe es geliebt. Meist habe ich aus Versehen Harakiri begangen, wenn ich mich zum Essen hinsetzen wollte.

I desperately wanted to have this game but it was basically impossible to get in Germany. I was lucky to have Mortal Kombat Trilogy.

Yeah, this guy doesn't know enough drug dealers and only fans models.

Nono, the lawyer definitely knows what makes a good game.

Yeah, I should have realised that everyone is talking about the US. Everything about their medical system sucks. It's powered by greed and not much else. I bet most third world countries have better health care than them.

Yeah, I'm in Germany. It is widely known that the US medical system absolutely sucks ass. Doesn't mean that the concept of health insurance sucks. In most of the developed world it works well. It's only the US implementation that is majorly flawed.

What is this thread? Since I got chronically ill my insurance has paid my salary for a year and is now paying into unemployment and pension for my wife, who's caring for me. And besides that they're still paying for all our medical expenses despite me not paying into them anymore.

Yeah, I had to fight for them to pay for a transport. But overall they definitely are offering a service I am greatly benefitting from.

Works with non-Steam games as well. I even had community profiles for Diablo 2. You just have to give the game the correct name and it should just work™.

Da erleben jetzt die Dresdner ihr blaues Wunder.

Beim Urlaub in Angelsachsen die Besitzerin des Bett und Brechschnells als sie merkt, dass wir Deutsche sind: "Sie werden die harten Betten lieben. Und Sie wollen keine Würstchen zum Frühstück."

Was soll ich sagen, sie hatte recht. Ihr Bett und Brechschnell war fast so gut wie das von der Norman Bates Kopie, der ständig von seiner Frau sprach, die wir nie zu Gesicht bekamen.

Angelsächsische Spanier? In meinem ich_iel?

Ich trage einen Bart, weil ich nicht die Energie zum Rasieren habe.

Wir sind nicht gleich.

I was glad my server did this the other day to make sure the data Lemmy put into my database is secure.

If you're looking for the best bang for your buck nothing beats assembling it yourself. A pre-built is always much more expensive to pay for assembly.

Aber, aber, das passt so gut zu einer Riesenechse!

Mit dem Lied hat auch die gar nicht wirklich verstorbene Lady Di versucht Adolf Hitler aus der Fassung zu bringen und einen Weltzerstörungsknopf drücken zu lassen. Hätte beinahe funktioniert.
