1 - haha
not a big deal.
Atleast Sony showed respect for the whole audience of the PS family.
Not everyone who is interested in E3 is a M-rate gamer.
Some are just there for games like Rachet/Modnation.

1.1 - read the article will ya
it says nothing about family or children. it just says it cut some footage, including some of which had some gore.

besides would the reasoning really be that the Sony Corp "cares about the family?" or would the more logical reasoning be that they are trying to avoid a lawsuit?

True, not that big of a deal, however if you read the story in it's entirety, because of the edit the audio for the remainder of the video is out of sync BIG TIME.

1.3 - disappointed...
Two years in a row, Sony screws up their E3 conference footage. Last year, Part 2 or Part 3, I forget, was zoomed in really close, I think it was cutting off people's heads and stuff. That, at least, was accidental (I think). This, clearly, was not.

I noticed that too, I saw that video from the news I posted here: http://www.n4g.com/events_e...
First , I thought the video had framerate issues,or my video tool is broken, after that I remarked that it was cut down, I was so pissed off!
And sony, try to be not so stupid, deleting such awesomeness from the video with best quality ever is ruining GOW3! protecting the kiddies is not a good pretext, all the kiddies in my family saw the boobs, the guts, the head ripping and were only smiling not TERRIFIED!

Yeah...

They censored quite a few scenes. I wanted to see the whole showing on my TV, but I don't mind.

I understand.

5 - HMDI + Gametrailers
For those of you lucky enough to have a laptop or PC with a HDMI port, just hook it up to your HDTV and stream from sites that have the full thing, like GameTrailers. It's probably not 1080p but it looked pretty good to me (and of course it's the full uncut footage).

They also have footage of the rest of the GOW demo that wasn't even shown at the live presentation:
