Key points:
- Game was never planned for Sony
- Xbox version was cancelled at the last moment
- Reason was censorship
None of this surprises me nor, I imagine, most if not all of you, but it does run counter-narrative to some insane comments that I had seen before about how Microsoft would bizarrely turn a new leaf in order to court the Japanese market.
Also, I've never played Gal*Gun before but have had Gal*Gun 2 installed for over 2 years now. I'll probably give it a try in the mid future.
Yes, it's censorship to avoid allowing 20 tons of absolute fertilizer onto your console.
Being available on the store != being on your console. Don't buy it if you don't like it.
Maybe his morals are so weak that he thinks that game existing on a platform will convince him to rape kids or something.
I was speaking from Microsoft's perspective. Allowing things onto the store is allowing them on their console.
