Well, I'm glad that Mellow seems uncensored, anyways...

So, is anyone going to tell me exactly what they did to No 1 Nation?

No1 Nation has the stangest censoring of all. They remove entire lines from the verses and it sounds like the whole song is being muted.

it sounds like ESRB does not want ITG to get as big as DDR is, they dident even censor "highs off u" but they censor "naked" and the "dark side"

At least Andamiro cut out the right things in PIU. I mean, cutting out things like "naked" and "dark side" is just rediculous. In PIU, the words "fuc k" and the "N" word (because DDRFreak censors these words too) are CLEARLY said. It's kind of funny actually.

On a unrelated but kind of related note, DDR has at least one song with the word "Nigga" in it.

Brownie points for you if you can name it, or another one i totally forgot about.

I never noticed any of the edits when I played...but I don't really pay attention to the singing.

"I am a robot, a robo little robot" is the best line ever.

Let's just hope that Guitar Hero doesn't have to face similar censorship by RedOctane in it's collection of songs.

So, from what I hear, 'Charlene' gets butchered (with no regard to lyrical context to boot, dammit), yet the opening line in 'Mellow' ("Have you ever smoked a big, fat Cuban cigar?") goes unscathed?

i say we all write letters to the ESRB to complain about this. There is absolutely no reason to censor anything in this game. It just completely blows my mind about all the poopy they put in movies and other games, and then censor stupid poopy that doesnt even matter. all they did was ruin it, they didnt make it any better for anybody.

oh and about no 1 nation, that is really weird. i dont think they meant to take the sound out in those parts because i used to play it in stepmania and one of my speakers was broken so the sound would only come out of one side. it does the exact same thing as the home version because during that part, the sound jumps back and forth between the speakers. since only one speaker worked for me, it sounded censored.
