Comment A new generation of political refugees ? (Score 1) 124

Crytek leaving Germany because of a law prohibiting them to advertise and sell violent games directly to kids ? That would give the expression "political refugee" a whole new sense.

Seriously, we already have had examples of that kind of laws. I can't remember now in which country it has been prohibited to sell and advertise some product to minors, causing all the industry, for that reason, to emmigrate, staff and employees and their families. The product was alcoholic beverages, I believe...

I bet that law will be as efficient. The kids already know about the game, they'll be more interested in having it, they'll love the challenge, and they'll find young adults to buy it for them.
