Plenty of interesting cases, Mega Man X4 (which maybe should have been Teen to begin with the blood in the FMVs), Xenosaga (Teen? Really? Not to be prude, but....) and Wild Arms going from K-A to Everyone 10+ with the remake. The ins and outs of the rating system are pretty interesting.

      You should avoid buying the remaster because you're uninterested in it, not because of this minor censorship. I played Tomb Raider 1 a few years ago, and I never even noticed the image. The guy who is chasing you is usually pretty far away, and you're so busy trying to stay alive (because the game is so hard), that what's on his back is the last thing you'll be paying attention to.
      The censorship is completely unnecessary, but it's not a deal breaker by any stretch.

      Back then, the game was running at very low resolutions, everything was pixelated. And that's on top of everything I mentioned before, Pierre being far away, him only showing up infrequently, Pierre moving quickly, and the player frantically trying to survive. The last thing you'll notice is the image on his back.

      Geneva Conventions Act
      The Geneva Conventions Act incorporates into Canadian law the Geneva Conventions, which are the foundation for International Humanitarian Law (IHL). IHL strives to protect the rights of civilians and those taking no active part in hostilities during times of armed conflict.
      The Geneva Conventions specifically prohibit the use of the red cross emblem by any organization, individual or corporation other than the following:"

      The red cross appearing on a med pack within a video game set in the 1990s causes no confusion.
      It's just an exercise in government censorship.
      The Geneva Conventions are guidelines for what nations laws should be pertaining to warzones.
      They are conventions that depend on nations to make laws and nations decided to interpret "shall not use" in the most censorious way possible, completely detached from any sort of humanitarian purpose in a warzone.

    To be fair pixelated graphics are already a form of censorship, so a nude with old school graphics is not really considered as a nude, while 2024 graphics could make it as what it is.
    And I also like the new design and tend to think it is even more adapted to the concept of pin up models too, as they often adopt a sexy attitude without necessary showing anything...
    I think the message at the beginning of the remaster and this jacket are to anticipate a possible woke polemic. People who already existed at the time it was released would understand mentalities were different and couldn't be shocked, but some of the ones who weren't born might not share this opinion...
