whooo!! South Yorkshire for the win!!!!

I'm pretty sure all of us who work on SPOnG, and who grew up in Yorkshire, did so in West Yorkshire.


One of our number was, of course, born and brought up in Doncaster...

Very strange indeed. So what's gonna happen when Link Crossbow Training hits the market, will they slap an 18 on that too?

I can understand RE:UC getting that rating, but the peripheral getting it is weird.


Well I don't understand exactly what is getting the rating. My understanding is that you buy the Zapper as a stand alone peripheral that comes with a free game, Crossbow Training. RE:UC is a stand alone (18 rated) game that will work with or without the Zapper. It won't come bundled.

If that is the case, then it's the Zapper peripheral that's getting the 18 rating (could be because it's getting bundled with Link's Crossbow Training, they really don't like crossbows in this country either) and if that's the case then I wouldn't be surprised if Nintendo choose not to release it in the UK at all. That is something I think we should be worried about.
