Germany Bans EU CoD: Black Ops for PC
- Thread starter John Funk
- Start date
It's still a shame that some governments don't seem to think an adult can make a choice whether to purchase a game with violence in it. It's not looking to change though, so I just shake my head and my 25 year old self will be enjoying gore to a happily elevated level when this is out 
I think actually what surprises me more was the cutting out of the Rolling Stones. That, is surely bizarre.

Germany banned Madworld for the wii, no big surprise they banned/censored this game aswell.
Ach nein that game contains violence and music...(lol wut?) that haz to be banned.
Logic phail much? It's a 18+ game, thought adults were allowed to play what they wanted =/

THEY TOOK THE ROLLING STONES OUT??!?!?! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!
Oh wait, I live in America, so I'll be fine.
On a different note, I didnt know they were going to have contemporary music in this one, I thought they were just going to use the same orchestral/generic heavy metal soundtrack that almost every war game seems to have these days.
As much as I hate to admit it, I think I'm actually starting to get a little excited for this game. I wont make up my mind until I play it, but this game is deffinitely starting to look like one of the best installments in the series.

Im facepalming at you defending a milked to death franchise that only dumbfucks spend 70 euros every single year. And Black Ops seriously looks like a mod for MW2, all they've added is new perks and killstreaks and guns, no new features or anything, which is all Treyarch is capable of.
Our children are losing their sense of morals because of that gosh darn rock and roll!Labyrinth said:

I'm facepalming you yet again cause you don't have a clue what the hell you are on about. I even helped you see what you said wrong.
I would like you to do REASEARCH before you try and say this COD is exactly the same, except for a few guns and perks.
here let me help you.
1). Theatre mode, not new to games, but new to COD
2). Wager Battles, basically gambling your in game credits, in the hope to double, or even triple your current credits.
And finally if that aint enough, let me show a specific page on this very site.

No new features you say?
Enjoy
Oh wow, you named 2 new actual features. The rest of the features on the page are pretty much gameplay adjustments.arc1991 said:http://www.threadbombing.com/data/media/54/facepalm_implied.jpgNazz3 said:

And honestly, when looking at the footage, it looks exactly like MW2. They've made almost no changed to the hud or gameplay, even a few decent modders could make more changes to a game. And they're also talking about a mode where you start with a pistol and the more kills you get the better weapons you get, there was a mod like that for CoD4. Thats what I really meant when saying that it had no new features, it looks just like MW2. I dont know why so many people wanna buy the same shit all over again every year. Besides that, the game couldnt look any more unbalanced.
The Gameplay, Graphics, and HUD are fine, why change them when they work? it is NOT the same "shit"Nazz3 said:Oh wow, you named 2 new actual features.

you can believe what ever you want. Fact is, this game IS different and is at least trying to make a difference.
And for everyone else saying "Huh?" at that particular bit of censorship, the lyrics for Sympathy for the Devil include the lines :John Funk said:
That probably has something to do with the decision to remove the song from the soundtrack - German law isn't exactly big on stuff that's reminiscent of the Nazis (especially if it doesn't say "PS: the Nazis were fuckheads")
And they've always been a bit draconian and well, German, about violent content, bless 'em.
I don't really care about this specific case, but in my opinion this is just giving people more reasons to pirate stuff and bypass security measurements or use blood patches.
Geez, I can understand their disapproval of the game, but they have no right outright banning it. Seems to infringe on those inalienable rights every human should have.
