wtf @ banning
Has this ever happened with a game before?  |
Thrill Kill.
Somewhat related, except that its publisher (Electronic Arts) dropped it from its roster because they feared the fallout of such a violent/deranged game(it was rated AO when first submitted to the ESRB). Manhunt 2 is in the development can, has the publisher ready to press(maybe already pressed), but is being so severely limited by external sources.
I played it a long ass time ago on my friend's modded PS, seemed more comical splatter slapstick than Manhunt's dark style.
Brazil has very little tolerance for violent video games.
Germany does allow shooters, but they will censor it so that humans are not killed (i believe Half Life 2 has the Combine models exchanged for robots that "leak oil" when you shoot them). I remember reading how this came about after a massive school shooting was committed by a person enthralled in his video game fantasy world.
The UK, don't they have a censorship system called the Video Nasty list, banning certain films from ever being shown/purchased/smuggled into their country? One of them being Clockwork Orange
