The law deals with "media", i.e. the whole Quake 2 CD has been put on the list. I guess the actual problem is that kids could have too much fun with too much sputtering blood, killing human-looking opponents. Probably there could be a version without red blood and with obviously non-human targets that would be acceptable. AFAIK for some other games, special german versions have been created with such modifications. > This looks like a bug in Germany rather than a bug in quake2. Maybe... But that's how the law is, see DMCA or whatever. Michael Below -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
