+Hasse Wind Posted January 21, 2011 Posted January 21, 2011 THIS VIDEO CONTAINS CONTENT OF EMI. IT IS NOT AVAILABLE IN YOUR COUNTRY. Gawd, I'm so fed up with that sh*t!!! The big music corporations have a pretty tight grip on your country, it seems. But I understand they are afraid of piracy and fear the loss of money, so everything must be censored. It makes more sense than the complete ban on anything related to Nazis in historical computer games in Germany. I remember when I bought Combat Mission: Barbarossa to Berlin (a wargame about the battles of the eastern front in WW2) - it was distributed by a German publisher here. Everything with swastikas or SS was completely removed. They had gone so far as to also remove the Finnish swastika symbols, which historically had nothing to do with Nazism. And it was a wargame that tried to be as historically accurate as possible, not some neo-Nazi action game. Are the censors trying to make people forget the Third Reich existed? Such censorship has always seemed stupid, even dangerous, to me. *** Anyway, they don't make music like that anymore. Quote

Crossbones Posted January 23, 2011 Posted January 23, 2011 Saw Maiden in Atlanta Georgia many a moon ago. Piece of Mind Tour! and I thought I was the last Iron Maiden fan left. Rock On! Crossbones Quote
NS13Jarhead Posted January 23, 2011 Posted January 23, 2011 (edited) I saw them at an outdoor venue in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania (a statium on an island in the middle of the Susquehana River) as the opening act for Judas Priest back in '83. It took three days for me to get my hearing back! Both bands are still in heavy rotation on my Zune. Edited January 23, 2011 by NS13Jarhead Quote
+Olham Posted January 23, 2011 Posted January 23, 2011 At last, I found one video the lawyers must have overlooked. Here they are: IRON MAIDEN play ACES HIGH http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_zoCZ4QhOdU Quote

To this day my favorite strategy game. It's very sad they'd censor it to that extent. Quote

That is censorship at it's peak. And all that, because they are so very afraid, that it might be noticed internationally, that there might be some Germans, who are still or again thinking fashistic. Although: "to think" sounds NOT like the right word there.Such crapp exists everywhere. Edited January 23, 2011 by Olham Quote
JFM Posted January 23, 2011 Posted January 23, 2011 Not WW1 and a fan-made video but it matches very well with Maiden's "The Longest Day." Quote

+Hasse Wind Posted January 24, 2011 Posted January 24, 2011 You're kidding! I bought CMBB back in 2002 when I was a young lad of 15. To this day my favorite strategy game. It's very sad they'd censor it to that extent. No kidding. Fortunately it's easy to mod the CM series, so it didn't take long before we had the swastikas. But that was the last time I bought any WW2 game by a German publisher. We have no such censorship here, fortunately, even though Finland fought with Germany in the war. I understand perfectly well that it's forbidden to form a new Nazi party or something like that in Germany, but I can't accept the censorship of historical products, such as computer games, when they are not promoting Nazi ideology but merely showing the uniforms and emblems as they were back then. *** Olham, you need to kick out your silly politicians and replace them with normal, decent people like you.

+Olham Posted January 24, 2011 Posted January 24, 2011 (edited) I suppose that was meant to be a compliment, Hasse Wind. But as long as people like our politicians or music like "Modern Talking" is regarded as normal here, I would much rather remain the one I am - pretty crazy. My ideal are the British. But however long I may try - I will never be that crazy. Edited January 24, 2011 by Olham Quote
