Trivia

To avoid having the game banned in Germany because of its violent nature, major modifications had to be made to the game's story line and graphics. The game now takes place in a parallel universe called Hysperia (!), where mankind was completely wiped out by machines (Terminator, anyone?). The machines then began to develop human-like emotions, which also led to common human problems such as war and crime. All humans, including enemies and the main character John Mullins, were therefore replaced by Cyborgs. The censored german "Soldier of Fortune II: Double Helix" is regarded by most players as "the most censored game ever in Germany". A doubtful title indeed...
