Just give me 404 page not found. Are these the wrong links or is that the australia thing?

Whatever happened to that thing GoG did a while back with the release of some other game where they said "if you go into your account profile thing and tell it you're an american, our system will believe you, wink wink". Bring that shit back. I still have "my location" set to "united states" but it doesn't seem to work.

What happened to you GoG, you used to be cool.

Well, here are the devs' thoughts on the matter:

(If you hate Kotaku for whatever -- justified -- reason, just look for it on Polygon or any other video gaming news outlet of your preference, but the fact remains it's an official Dennaton/Devolver position.)

They could have received a court order or something. I'm just making that up, but I wouldn't be surprised if some sort of pressure had been wielded. You don't usually just wake up one day and say, "yeah, I'll do what The Man wants today just because I feel like it!"

IwubCheeze: Since when was consistency and rational thought a prerequisite to being lawmaker? :P

Here in China, it's illegal to own a video game console but you saw PSPs everywhere in the early 2000's, it shows you how seriously people took that law. Fast forward to today, mobile phones have replaced the function of portable video game consoles, PC gaming is still legal like it always was but owning a video game console is still illegal? Yeah, doesn't make a lot of sense, does it?

It's not just lawmakers though. While I was in the UK, I remember people I worked with shunning censorship but when they see something they don't like, their first thought is "it should be banned". Same thing with ""The government should get out of our lives" or "down with the nanny state" yet when there's a problem in society, they turn round and say "The government should do something about it". I'm sure this happens in other countries too.

People are such a versatile species, aren't we?
Agreed. Some of the biggest @$$h0les are those with a "save the world" agenda.
