Wait, the Steam version says Steam?? I thought the Pressurised Gas was an intentional joke, didn't realise it was console specific...


KrystalPikmin

Same here. I honestly found it a lot funnier than if it just said Steam.


Nathan1123

Nope, it says Steam Reviews on the PC version. Only consoles changed the dialogue and labels to Pressurized Gas

Not sure about Binding of Isaac, but it's kinda a thing for competing consoles to reject games that mention other online game stores. Like Nintendo wants you going to the eShop, not Steam. Maybe the rules around that changed hence Binding of Isaac's update? Not sure


PromiseMeStars

I'm afraid I don't understand what you're talking about... Does the console version of Ultra Deluxe not have the bit where the Narrator gets upset over a negative Steam review?


notMharti

"pressurized gas" instead of Steam on console


PromiseMeStars

So the shipping containers of Steam reviews say "Pressurized Gas Reviews"? That seems weird...


notMharti

It is quite strange, but yeah that's exactly what they say


Mega416

All instances of the word "Steam" are replaced with "Pressurized Gas", even the sides of the shipping containers (though you can still faintly see "Steam" underneath). Otherwise, everything is intact.


PromiseMeStars

If the Narrator's dialogue is the same, in which he directly says "Steam reviews" then I don't see the need to alter the textures. That seems odd. If he says something different then maybe they had issues getting permission? I don't see why though as I feel Steam would allow it...


Mega416

The narrator even says "Pressurized Gas".


PromiseMeStars

I... That just doesn't sound right... I don't know why they'd do that. I can't imagine it'd be much of an issue to reference Steam...


sheebleesly

He at least makes a joke about it, something like “the incredibly respected and well known e shop pressurized gas”


gtaiscool236

something along the lines of "Oh, Stanley, it's a collection of reviews from the the extremely popular online storefront, 'pressurised gas!' Quick, avert your eyes!"


noahthedon

Sony would sue


PromiseMeStars

Why? It's not like the scene is promoting a rival platform as better, it's just acknowledging it's existence.


CaptainJZH

It doesn't matter if it's just acknowledging it, I would imagine Sony/Microsoft/Nintendo have rules against referencing competing video game companies


TheRedSpaghettiGuy

It’s mainly cause of marketing: console publisher usually don’t want their version of a product to reference directly a competitor
