It's like when the diks in the bureau of statistics brought in online returns for the last census, and totally stuffed it up. If you want to help, email the classification board and complain. For non-australians, every five years all Australians are required to stay home on a specific Tuesday night, and fill out a report on their family, lifestyle, jobs, income, etc, which the bureau of statistics analyses to allow for planning and stuff Last edited by Hidden Gunman ; 29 Aug, pm.
Its fine, hasn't been banned yet. Besides once we own it it doesn't apply afaik. It was the Womans Lot. The sex scenes in that lol crazy.. I have that also. Hidden Gunman, so true still funny though didn't expect to see that in KCD forum. Kind of makes sense. Bandy View Profile View Posts. Originally posted by Tits McGee :. Malaysia was not fond of a number of elements within the game, namely its hellish visions, which caused the area to ban it entirely.
Stereotypes don't always go over well in certain areas, and in Mexico, the state of Chihuahua took exception to the stereotypes that were perpetrated in this game. While it is available in other areas of Mexico, the locals in Chihuahua were unable to get themselves a copy when this game hit shelves. Instead of having an outright ban throughout the entire country, this fan-favorite is banned in a certain area of the Philippines.
The game grew too popular and physical conflicts arose in no time. Because of this, the area decided to make sure that fans of the game would have to go elsewhere to enjoy it. As is stands now, this is the only game that is banned in Nepal, making the area as a whole rather lenient when compared to some of the others on this list. The country banned PUBG because of the younger characters in the game being involved with delinquency.
Good thing the locals have plenty of other games to play. As a premier franchise in the gaming community, many people have played at least one entry in the Mass Effect franchise. For those living in the United Arab Emirates, however, there have been multiple games within the franchise that have been banned, and this is due to a certain relationship within the game.
However, PC gamers can scoop up a digital copy comfortably. A football game being banned? But how? Well, fans of this series know that this isn't quite like other football games, and the story mode features certain incentives that would make Charlie Sheen blush.
Australia decided that the game crossed the line and dropped the hammer on it when it was initially released. Edition: Available editions Global. Become an author Sign up as a reader Sign in. A screenshot from survival videogame DayZ.
Bohemia Interactive. Brendan Keogh , Queensland University of Technology. The reason: players could use marijuana within the game. Censorship Gaming Videogame industry Violent video games. Events More events. But fine, whatever. You can't tell the rest of us what to do, Brazil. You aren't our real dad. Let's take a moment and try to think of everything that could offend someone about Counter-strike. Rampant violence?
Terrorist involvement? Apparently none of those fazed the Brazilian government, though, because they banned it for a completely different reason: it contains a user-made map of a Brazilian slum, or favela. In case you aren't familiar with the concept, favelas are urban shantytowns where crime among the impoverished populace is rampant.
That's presumably why Brazilian officials took exception to a favela-based Counter-Strike map, dubbing the game "an attack against the democratic state" and banning it from sale in October Though the equally violent Modern Warfare 2 also has a favela map and wasnt banned so As in, over ten years after the game was released and began building its huge Brazilian following. Yeeeah, that ban didn't last long. I'm starting to notice a pattern here. Nations really don't like appearing in video games as obliterated wastelands.
That was the motivation behind several bans on this list, and I'm adding one more - Spec Ops: The Line was banned in the United Arab Emirates because it takes place in a destroyed Dubai. That's the thought at least, since not even the developer knows for sure.
But still! Who could've seen that coming, right? The interesting thing about this case is that the UAE is quite serious about its decision.
While it isn't unusual for a game to still be available in the country after it's been banned, UAE censor are cracking down hard on The Line, even blocking access to a demo 2K put out in advance of the release. The blow is extra harsh because the ban also undercuts its sales in countries like Jordan and Lebanon, which work in conjunction with the UAE's regulatory body.
Tough break, soldiers.
