The Internet is home to videos where a man shatters a mason jar inside his own rectum, and yet Sony has the nerve to tell us that God of War III is too extreme for the Internet. Unless Kratos defecates into a cup and starts eating it while fisting the Numa Numa guy, I think Sony is taking the piss.
Nevertheless, Sony is claiming that current game images are simply too graphic for any gaming news site to post, thanks in part to new technology that puts independent intestines inside of character models, allowing them to freely spill everywhere once Kratos disembowels them. This little trick is known as "Zipper Technology," which is really quite vivid once you think about it.
Zipper Tech was due to be shown off in a new GoW III trailer, but Sony apparently cut it after deciding we couldn't handle the brutality. Come on Sony, we're hardcore gamers -- we've witnessed every sordid sex act ever to be performed in front of a camera, and stared, mouth agape, at pictures of what may or may not be Hitler's corpse. We can handle a few digital pooptubes, methinks.
In other news, I need to play this game.

Jesus that was graphic jim...ok, now where are the screens sony?
Also, I'm just coming to the end of Chains Of Olympus on PSP... Man, that game makes my palms sweat late at night in bed. It's intense, as close to a violent wank as I am getting at the mo without a violent wank.
Is this relevant?
Imagine the size of Prometheus's rubber.
Alrighty then.
2greekwargods1cup FTW!
I think movie producers that do that are than worse than scum. Taking my cousins and little sisters to watch Prince Caspian, rated pg, and explain to my aunt and mother why they were scared for life.
...(continue from my first post) is not fun. Fuck that shit.
What dissapoints me is that typically when you are told you can't see it yet for reasons like these its because it isn't working up to snuff, which also means it might not make it.
Peter Molynuex I'm looking at you.
In all seriousness though,
"The Darkness" had Heart Eating in it.
@ zombieplaytapus & Zombiekiller
We have a winner.
Please, Sony, you're making a farce of yourself. You should give your fans at least a little credit.
Sony has been treating their fans like retards ever since the announcement of the PS2... Geez, this is the sorriest attempt at hype that I've seen in the past year.
@ Mockingbird
Holy hell that would be a monster i wonder how many years it would take trojan to wrap that piece up!
OMG... is your dad alright?
j/k j/k, that was just too easy.
I'm not dead...
