Q u o t e:
Haha, is the government of Germany really going to ban all violence games? That is so ridiculous... The president has probably seen the 'Angry German Kid' -video.


I'll tell you, won't happen.

But our president (Bundespräsident = Horst Köhler) didn't say anything regarding this matter as far as I know.
Our chancelor (Bundeskanzlerin = Angela Merkel) neither, as far as I know.

I guess it's just the federal ministers who want that. Perhaps I'm not up to date.
But as I said: won't happen.

They also wanted to ban Paintball and after huge uproar from all the paintball players they let it go.
I expect a way larger protest if they decide to ban "violent computer games".

Q u o t e:

You probably won't be playing D3 at all if the legislature passes.


What do they want to do: put buying violent games under punishment? raid my house? take my computer?
They don't have the power for that and aren't that stupid.
