Games and stupid reasons why they are banned in many countries (P2)

There are many reasons why a title games are banned release. Legitimate cases such as being too violent, too sensitive, insulting religious beliefs are not discussed but indeed, there are a number of reasons. ban game extremely crappy and difficult to help, after listening but only know how to shut up.

EA Sports MMA
​

​

Denmark is not a strict country in terms of game censorship, even more relaxed than other countries. However, all that has not been able to stop the government’s aversion to EA Sports MMA, caused by the game jumping too many ads for different types of energy drinks. At the time of the game’s release in 2010, Red Bull as well as any drink containing more than 150mg of caffeine per liter was considered illegal in Denmark. Electronic Arts did not edit the game because of that, it didn’t even release it in Denmark.

Homefront
​

​

North Korea is a closed and militaristic country. In Homefront released in 2011, players will fight against the invasion of the North Korean army to protect the US territory. Unfortunately for Korean gamers, the country’s government was concerned that the game’s release could cause antagonism with North Korea, so Homefront was quickly banned from releasing in South Korea.

Command & Conquer: Generals
​

​

Command & Conquer: Generals is one of the games that are also banned in China. Although China is depicted as an ally of the main character in the game, the game allows the player to directly destroy famous Chinese landmarks such as the Hong Kong Convention Center, the Three Dies Dam, and the Great Wall. Thanh, … Not only the government but even the gamers in this country are not satisfied with that. Telling the Chinese people to bomb Tiananmen Square with their own hands is a difficult thing to accept. The people of any country are proud of their national heritage.

RapeLay
​

​

RapeLay is exactly the game about rape and as expected, it is banned in most countries. However, in Argentina, the reason for the ban is not necessarily due to the sensitive topic of the game. In RapeLay, there is a scene where the main character stalks and sexually assaults a woman and her two daughters. The main reason RapeLayb was banned in this country was because one of the woman’s daughters was underage. This means, if the other daughter is old enough, Argentina can completely accept the release of this game.

Greece bans all games
​

​

Yes, you heard me right, Greece has a law banning all video games. In 2002, to prevent illegal gambling, the Greek government banned all electronic devices and software. They believe that all software has the ability to make someone a gambler. When this law was enacted in 2002, the internet and technology played an important role in science, it was even possible to raise babies in test tubes at that time, so trust in technology and electronics only makes people sound really naive and ridiculous. Not only Greek citizens but also foreigners residing in this country must comply with this law if they do not want to get involved with the law.​
