Re: This Old Pinball Opinion Poll

I'm with E-Hacker. I really like the idea of having both options on one
DVD -- one cut with less (or no) Candy, and another with even more than TOP
7. Same video -- just a matter of whether or not certain scenes are
included.

My issue is I don't want my kids to see this, yet they're up doing homework
sometimes later than me. It's almost impossible to watch a video without at
least one of my four kids around.

So if the DVD tools are there -- let's get a PG version (no S or F bombs, no
Candy) *and* an even-more-naked Candy version on the same disc, selected at
the menu. That would be my nirvana ;-)
