China Bans 50 Games

Posted by timothy on from the it's-an-unfree-county-bub dept.

Stargoat writes "The official mainland Chinese news agency, Xinhau, is reporting that China is banning 50 gaming titles. These titles include Battlefield Vietnam, The Sims 2, and FIFA 2005. A similar game banning event occurred six months ago in China, but not to this scale."

    It would be funnier to watch Polish kids invade Germany. Belarus would never know what hit them.
