Apparently, there was something about that in Japan, no four fingered characters are allowed because a sign of holding four fingers to someone makes them some sort of almost slave like meat packer, because presumably they kept losing their fingers, hence fours fingers is offensive. and Oddworld couldn't pay up, so they had to remove a fingers. Also, even thought the story is unkown, the 'Mudokons pops' graphic also had to be changed for Japanses players from a head on a stick to a happy ice pop graphic. Doesn't explain that story in the book. Apparently Disney has to pay $5,000,000 a year to keep Mickey mouse there. But thats probably small fry for Disney, knowing them.
And the actualy story is on apge 45. 99 is the awards and timeline page.
