Spoilers abound.

>Games takes place during Christmas
>Elijah wants to become the new messiah (birth of Christ) in a world of Snatchers
>Snatchers are machines which follow his orders (religious faith)
>Prayer is useless and jokingly adds an option to the menu when Gillian is about to crash
>Only church in the game is literally a Snatcher assembly factory
>Said church also gets obliterated by a laser cannon later on

How did this game get past the censors again? Snatcher thread.

Because Sega does what Nintendon't.

There are actually more than one

All censors cared about back then was direct visual content. You could've written anything in the story and it'd pass.

A lot of games from that time includes a malicious church that tries to win influence through faith

This. Only Nintendo cared about censoring religious imagery in games back then.

Why did they changed the placement of Gibson's corpse in the Sega CD version?

Didn't know about that. Probably one of those silly decisions CEOs make, which wouldn't matter anyway, just in case the blame wouldn't fall on their ass.

Breath of Fire barely hid it. I was surprised.

They voluntarily rated it MP-13 and Nintendo heavily censored the SNES port.

No idea. It was obvious in the original version that his coat was buttoned, but on your screenshot it kind of looks like he has been turned over (he wasn't though, you can still see the line for the coat right above his head).

Replied to the wrong person. See >>3299761, they deliberately showed his bloody neck in the SegaCD version.

I know they into trouble for designing one of the Zelda dungeons into a manji, since it looked like a Nazi Swastika, which is how I suspect it started. A lot of cross imagery in games Zelda II, the Castlevania series and Dragon Warrior got edited out from the U.S. version.

>I know they into trouble
I don't believe it's genuine consumers who complained about shit like this back then. I think the whole controversy around video games in the '90 was a result of companies trying to undermine each other position which led to a shitstorm.

From The Ultimate History of Video Games
>Protests came from all directions. Educators and parents complained that Nintendo was distracting children from their studies, a 1989 study stated that Nintendo was partially to blame for a 10 percent decrease in the cardiovascular fitness of American schoolchildren,2 and Jewish groups protested that the outline of the third dungeon in a game called The Legend of Zelda was an inverted
swastika. When a Seattle-based group called Families for Peace protested outside Nintendo headquarters during the 1987 holidays, Hill and Knowlton executives had to scramble to preserve their client's reputation.

<conspiracy_theory_mode> The question is, who gave them the idea? Where did they learn it from? I doubt parents and teachers would spend so much time on the game to discover the floor plan was a swastika </conspiracy_theory_mode>

Is Elijah the most cucked villain in any video game?

It was kinda obvious when you filled out the Dungeon 3 map. If they weren't watching their children playing, then they probably found it from one of the Nintendo Power guides.
