Many if you may know that Germany has very strict law's regarding youth protection against violence, explicit sexual content and other material in the media (TV, Movies, Games, Print etc.). However these laws prohibit games like Command & Conquer: Generals, Unreal Tournament 2003, Soldier of Fortune series, Quake series and a lot of other great games to be sold, advertised, displayed or reviewed in public. Retailers may sell the products to adults under the counter but they mostly don't, because they don't even know there's an 'uncut' original version. The content of games in monitored by a circle of people in the Bundespruefstelle fuer jugendgefaehrdende Medien. Germany goes a seperate way in judging video games and rating them although there is a pan-european solution, ELSPA. You can participate in the initiative against indexing video games in Germany here.
