From what I've gotten out of Call of Duty, it isn't just senseless killing. It has historic values.
Also, freedom and liberty? What freedom game regulation destroying? It is already regulated by age groups. It would just be more regulation by enforcing this act. Unless I totally misunderstood you. :p
I do personally feel, though, that game regulation like this needs to be taken upon the hands of the people who buy them and the people who sell them.
Don't say that, perhaps the politicians are watching and will steal your idea...Quote:

And when I really want to have a game that is not allowed to be sold in Germany, I can still import the German version from Austria, or use some illegal sources to get the uncensored US-original...
I the end, I don't think they will be successful, expect supporting the illegal downloaders...

(btw. i'm german too)
http://www.dcemu.co.uk/vbulletin/ima...ilies/rofl.gif - my opinion.
I am from Germany and I must say it really sucks. Its not the will of the german players. The TV made Reportages about games only from their bad side, and frightened the older stupid people, which have now clue of Video Games. Its all because of our crappy Gouvernment which didnt recognize and hear to the Gamers in this land. Uwe Schünemann and Günter Beckstein are the main Persons which are responsible for this.
I must excuse my country. It was not the decision of the Gamers, we had no possibility, no voting etc. to tell our opinion. Its like a dictatorship to me.
As another Citizen of this Sorry Nation I'd have to agree.Quote:

Instead of coddling them and getting to Government involved.

The Maximum given Sentence for most Violent Crimes here in Germany is only about Fifteen Years, probably less with good behavior.
Only the truly sickest of Crimes like that Case with those Cannibals. ~I think they did receive a Life Sentence though.~
Although I forsee little problems with this applying to Half-Life, or other Ego-Shooter Gamers.
Hell Herr, Thompson would be proud of us!!
You can say that again! I mean look at how our Government stole our Currency and powned us with the Teruo!Quote:
