** Different countries have different standards on what is and is not acceptable to include in games and they must be passed by that country's review board in order to be allowed to be sold -- one country may be fine with gratuitous amounts of gore and violence but comes down much harder on sexual content; another country may be the other way around. Hard-coding caps on those limits that can be tailored to each country means it's relatively straightforward to adjust the game to satisfy that country's standards.
