| COKTOE said: Ok, so Red Faction was considered "harmful to Germany's youth". Cough. I came across this gaf thread, which is quite old (2010), but the list of banned games is staggering. I had no idea videogame censorship was so out of control there. Again, it's old, but it should give you and idea of how bad shit is in Duetschland. Fallout 3?! WTF?! |
You obviously never played Fallout 3. You can shoot off all limbs and the head as well. A critical hit in the head will also cause it to explode with eyes popping out and everything. It's easily one of the goriest games out there.
The GAF OP labeled the games in the list as "Cannot be sold to people under 18, no advertising, no displaying in stores" and that is completely right. You referred to them as banned, but they aren't. Retailers are allowed to sell them and everyone 18 or up is allowed to buy them. There are a few exceptions such as the games listed in the much smaller "banned" category. Those are still allowed to be owned though.
