Ninja Gaiden NO sera censurado en Europa

Our good friends over at EuroGamer are reporting that Ninja Gaiden has not been censored for Europe, at least not yet. They say Microsoft and Tecmo do not intend to censor the game in any country unless it will be specifically required to get it published there.

Indeed, although an official statement from Microsoft UK conceded that "minor changes may be made to ensure that the game satisfies ratings requirements in Europe," we were told categorically that the game will be submitted as is - with decapitations, head-stump blood geysers and exploding chest cavities intact. If, at that stage in production, the authorities in certain countries demand a few alterations, some changes may have to be made, but it's no more or less severe in this case than in any other.

Phew! I expect the UK version will be left unharmed but I have my doubts about the german one...
