Switzerland BANS violent games

http://www.mcvuk.com/news/38103/Switzerland-passes-violent-games-ban

No ET for the Swiss? :<

Quote: "The likeliest outcome seems to be an outright ban on the production, distribution and sale of any games deemed to be unsuitable – most likely anything with either a PEGI 16+ or PEGI 18+ certificate."

Quote from a user of a Finnish site where I found this from: "I believe that this will remove all crime in Switzerland."

Isn't censorship just great? :)

If not interested, here's a hot chick from Two and a Half Men: image: emmanuelle_vaugier_8

back to the stone age!
sucks2be them
doubt there's something a government can do about online distributed software.
(not taking the shitty idea's of certain countries into account :P)

But i already find their reasoning totally laughable :D
(á la - 'those games are bad, tv shows etc. have a bad influence at our children and should be banned' :D

To some extend I'd agree on some tv shows, but still there's nothing proving that playing those games has a bad influence on your behaviour life or what ever...it simply can has a bad side effect - e.g. you not going to work, be frustrated spend all your money on it or what ever it might be. BUT that can happen if you get too involed with anything possible...gambling, sports, etc.)
they can only stop the possibility to dl such stuff from swiss internetpages..
Parent
and we all value the high amount of swiss dl pages ':D'
Parent
yeah i know .. but i mean that the only thing they could control

Parent
Good, because you're not wanted.
Parent
My mum wants to see me again, I'm sure of that.
Parent
When are you back from Australia? Having a good time on Bondi Beach?
Parent
June, and Bondi is overrated. There are wayyyy better places nearby.
Parent
Why are you over there for so long? I've not been yet, waiting till I finish college i guess.
Parent
Why not? :D Just finished school so I got some time off now. We are travelling up the east coast + Tasmania and Melbourne. Takes some time. :)
Parent
And some money, lucky you! :<!
Parent
Yeah true. I worked for some months and was lucky that my parents could help me out. But it's worth it. The trip to Australia I mean. Absolutely awesome here.
Parent
Tempting to live over there when you're older? :)
Parent
Sydney would be a possibility, yeah. :)
Parent
Awesome, well have fun dude and i'll speak to you when you're back!
Parent

And here we've been talking about how close-minded Americans are...
