More Info On Omega Force (Game Developer)
Looking to find out more information about the company. Don't seems to have any info about them on the Internet - Other than they are an external game developer for Koei.

 * They may hold a record for the game developer with the highest ratio of games published to amount of information out there about the company. Tempshill (talk) 19:07, 14 August 2009 (UTC)


 * semi irrelevent but koei had a patent applicable to kessen 2, and I think also the dynasty warriors series http://patft.uspto.gov/netacgi/nph-Parser?Sect1=PTO1&Sect2=HITOFF&d=PALL&p=1&u=/netahtml/PTO/srchnum.htm&r=1&f=G&l=50&s1=6729954.PN.&OS=PN/6729954&RS=PN/6729954
 * I think they are entirely koei funded or owned (not independent), and mostly japanese judging from the credits of their games.83.100.250.79 (talk) 21:17, 14 August 2009 (UTC)

The Simpsons
Has The Simpsons ever been banned in some countries? David Pro (talk) 19:54, 14 August 2009 (UTC)
 * imdb says "China:(Banned) (Banned from Prime Time TV)" --80.176.225.249 (talk) 20:15, 14 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Venezuela. I think the episodes with Nazi paraphernalia are banned, or at least edited, in Germany. Adam Bishop (talk) 12:02, 15 August 2009 (UTC)
 * From memory... I believe they had trouble with an episode in Brazil. I don't know if it was banned by the government or if the local station refused to show it. --  k a i n a w &trade; 21:24, 15 August 2009 (UTC)

I think the general rule of Simpsons episodes is that if they do an episode set in a forign country, that country promptly gets pissed and bans that episode ;)Library Seraph (talk) 23:56, 15 August 2009 (UTC)
 * I know you're joking, but that is certainly not true of episodes set in the UK; and anyway in that case the "country" has no power to impose such a ban. (And "pissed" means something different here too:))  AndrewWTaylor (talk) 16:28, 17 August 2009 (UTC)
