GGL Wire » Germany too scared of Jericho, denies game’s release

Germany’s videogame review board, USK, is notorious for not allowing certain titles in the former Third Reich to be sold and it seems that it is time to add Clive Barker’s Jericho to that list. With games like Manhunt 2 and Gears of War banned, it’s actually no surprise that the gore fest that is Jericho was denied the right to see the light of day in Germany.
