I cant wait for those generation to die off
(not just because a game was banned but there are many more reason for me to hope they will all be gone soon.)

Nicht alle Spiele die 16+ sind, sind zensiert zum beispiel Saints Row 4 ist unzensiert. Das witzige daran ist das im Grundgesetz steht das KEINE Zensur stattfindet Spiele wie Dead Island sind die besten Beispiele das sich daran keine Sau hält.

Mir hat sich nie erschlossen, warum die deutsche Vorgeschichte dafür sorgt, dass Nazi-Symbolik aus Spielen entfernt wird. Man müsste meinen, es wäre sogar sinnvoll, dass es Spiele gibt, die Nazis als Feindbilder integrieren. Verherrlichung gehört weg, keine Frage. Aber alles raushalten, wo ein Hakenkreuz drauf ist... völlig sinnfrei... ^^

Es gibt verbotene Spiele. Verboten, nicht zensiert (ja, denn Juristen lieben Semantik-Spiele). Zwar alles was "gewaltverherrlichend" ist. Nur, was das ist, das ist unklar.
Oh, und "rassistisches Nazi-Material". So wie z.B. Return to Castle Wolfenstein. Sehr rassistisch. Und nazi-istisch. Oder anders gesagt: Blödsinn.

I used to believe that games wasn't banned in Brazil, until I found several games missing in Steam without reason. There isn't a real pattern around here (i.e. violence, homosexuality bans) but each one cut out have stupid reasons (like anything else with the current government).
No censorship is permitted here, at least.

Gosh, it seems like Germany is hell. You have this stupid GEMA, lots of games banned or censored. That's horrible, I feel sorry for all German people.
By the way, that's just ridiculous that governments ban games like they're hard drugs or something really dangerous. Here in Poland we have lots of stupid laws and totally stupid politicians but at least we have freedom in matter of games, I'm pretty sure there are no banned games.

None. We don't ban games here. You can buy any game you want in most of the stores, because no one gives a damn about PEGI and that kind of stuff.

No games banned or censored here in Portugal, as far as I am aware.

Injustice Gods Among us Ultimate Edition in Hungary. Reason: There is a DLC costume for Superman, which shows the sickle and the hammer ( Soviet Russian autocracy symbol ). For this f*ckin 1 DLC costume WB refused to sell the game in Hungary. And Steam doesn't list it either.

Mercenaries II is the only banned game here, as fas as I know. I agree with the reasons, and the game is a piece of shit anyways

Just an off-topic thread about a subject I am pretty curious about.
I will start first. Living in Singapore, widely known as the country that bans chewing gums, canes SOBs for vandalism and hangs people for drug-related offences, censorship and banning of games are surprisingly rare.
Banned/censored games
Mass Effect - homosexuality [Ban lifted]
The Darkness - excessive violence [Ban lifted for Playstation only]
And that's it?
Some games like all GTA games cannot be bought online. All games including the ones only for 18+ can be bought in a game store, provided you show your ID.
So what are the games censored or banned in your country? Leave your comments below.
