    Nope, I haven´t seen any Color Climax films with any Danish voice. It was probably dubbed all dubbed in German, so no I have never heard Tove Jensens real voice, just to mention one of the actors. But there were a couple of English dubbed ones. And to be honest, I know one of the old Color Climax film makers. But he wants to be anonomous . And he has NEVER ever been a part of the murky side.

    well I could use the german spiegel as a source but that wont serve much either so just in case nobody cant read this due to the language barrier,well i cant help its a specific german topic so dont expect many non german sources to deal with it

    and no I didnt say AT ALL that racism etc are a german phenomenon exclusively,that would be insane

    BUT what I have experienced in personal is discrimination in a way that it will affect my life for a very long time,its personal and im not joking at all (i talk to my lawyer every now and then)

    BY THE WAY:

    I went to the customs today in order to get my non banned but unrated biohazard titles (which are rated in their respective german versions)
    and guess what I wasnt allowed to take them because

    "Yea according to the list theyre not banned or something but we re not sure,there might me illegalmaterial so we lll keep it and investigate it"

    k so another 3-4 months wait

    after 3 visits ive come to a conclusion that according to my local customs here I am NOT allowed to import:

    A) banned games (biohazard 2 and 3 on pc)
    B) not banned games (biohazard 5 for the PS3)
    C) games that have no rating whatsoever (biohazard 0 and 1 trial editions)

    means according to them I am allowed without doubt to import:

    D) german rated games

    well makes importing kinda senseless right?

    Nakian, I was of course thinking of Danish sources, since Danish is only spoken by 5.5 million people. So that is a language NOT spoken by many. So if you choose a source which is in a language not spoken by many, then go figure :)

    Out of curiousity what is it with german youth and their frequent importing of resident evil crap. Like there isnt anything else to get. And only those titles are always the ones that people whine about being stuck at the customs.

    How are they packaged anyway, does it even mention the contents? I had never problems importing "bad" things, then again I never imported bad RE titles :110:

    I've had multiple packages arriving from RWS containing all sorts of merchendise, games and development stuff a few years back for another game development, and I dare to say stupid postal is a little worse then fucking RE.

    Kinda get the feeling everything gets through as well as illegal substances but no flipping Bio/RE, I bet they got a huge Moral Poster on the wall telling them that's what they need to spend their time on looking for.

    Confirmed: Second Life, online adult games to be banned outright in Australia


    Damn something is completely wrong when it comes to shite like this. What the fuck ? I had faith in you Australia, but now you are becoming a mixture Victorian era UK, and Germany ? Damn, it is no wonder why the world is going downhill with all that censorship bullshit. What is next we all need some kind of drivers license in how to use a PC ? oh yeah we already have that here, which is called "A PC drivers license" but thank goodness it is NOT mandatory, but hey a little bit of this and a little bit of that and hey "presto" we are getting shitcanned on the way home from where ever we came from.
