Maybe after seeing Velvet Assassin or some of the violent WW2 games, they're getting worried that Germans might actually know what happened between '39-'45 .

Velvet Assassin is made by a German developer located in Hamburg, Germany. What you are saying doesn't even make sense.

To add on, fuck you coolbeans, the Germans are one of the most repentant countries out of all the 3 Axis powers, made Holocaust denial ILLEGAL. I can't say for their education system, as I wasn't raised there, but I'm sure they don't just skip/skim that part of history.

Yeah we ( The Germans) still suffer from WWII. You can't be patriotic in Germany. It is impossible. I was born 40 years after the WW II ended, so I can fairly say that I have nothing to do with it. Same for my parents and even my grandparents (my grandfather was 7 years old when the war started) but still, we have to deal with it.

I really think Germany did well after the second worldwar (with the help of others of course). Germany was totally destroyed after '45. But the country was re-built and look at it now. Germany has a so unique history from the evil in mankind to a re-united country and a open minded society with lots of immigrants. And as a German who experienced all this, I think you have all reason to be proud. But as soon as you say: "Hey, I think Germany is a pretty cool country to live in" you will hear the response: "Never forget Worldwar II!" We did not forget WWII and we won't forget it, but it is nothing bad to be proud of what you achieved in the past 60 years.

 

And yeah, Gears was never released here, but it was imported from austria (same language) so sales in Austria must have been insane.
