i can't remember the game but there was one when you entered a swear word it would then come up "bad boy" |
| Malenko:
off topic, my buddy josh and his father always entered their initials as SON and DAD; I always put mine is as TOM (even though I've always spelled my name Thom) |

There are many games which do this, some of them even censor non-swear words. I seem to remember several Capcom titles censoring 'SNK' etc. It's always amusing when you open up a rom in a hex editor, when you're initially studying it, looking for hardware / manufacturer clues and find a bunch of censored words in plaintext. This being US games collection, but in many cases you can find similar lists of censored words ;-) |
