Lollipop Chainsaw Censorship and Premium Edition

Hi gamers!


I'm REALLY excited for Lollipop Chainsaw, as far as I'm aware there are no *real* limited/special/collector's edition version of the game, sadly. It's a little early to say, but the amount of research I've done on the topic it appears Japan will only get the premium edition. Don't be alarmed though, *we're* not missing out on anything and by *we* I mean the US/UK. (I've stopped buying new games in Australia) the Japanese premium edition will only unlock the gore, sexuality and dual audio in the game, much like the US release but adds an additional outfit.

XBOX 360 and Playstation 3 will have their exclusive "premium" outfit. Below you'll find them. The bright pink "rider" suit is exclusive to XBOX 360 and the "cutie waitress" outfit is exclusive for the Playstation 3's premium.


If you want the extra outfit you'll have to cough up extra. There isn't much said about DLC for this game yet, however there's some feelings that these outfits will hit PSN Stores in the US. Making these outfits Japan exclusive is rather crazy, but since the Playstation 3 is region free there is nothing stopping you from owning this exclusive edition. For XBOX 360  users you're stuck with your region's default outfits sadly.

This is a form of censorship for the game, however it seems to only effect Japan's release. As Australian games don't have R18+ rating I wouldn't be surprised if this trend follows onto Australian release of Lollipop Chainsaw.
