While we know Capcom for Mega Man, Street Fighter II and Resident Evil, in Japan they’re known for releasing the most games with the CERO-Z rating. The taboo CERO-Z rating is similar to getting slapped with an NC-17 rating for a movie or getting the dreaded AO rating from the ESRB. Currently Capcom has eight CERO-Z games and most of them are developed outside of Japan. They took a risk to publish the Grand Theft Auto series and are releasing Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas on January 27, 2007. The gamble mostly paid off since the GTA series has been fairly successful in Japan. While some of their published CERO-Z games come from Rockstar, killer7 and Dead Rising were developed internally.
