I'm not sure if it's true but it's kick ass! The Greek government is once again turning into the raving mad-men they always were! A few more months and I'll be able to go home!!! hehe

Holy crap! Jeez, they just up and banned all electronic and computer gaming.... I for one am really really glad I do not live there

Though after watching "My Big Fat Greek Wedding" I was already pretty sure I didn't want to live in Greece

This law is a pile of shit

However I would like to point out that Greece is one of my favourite countries in the whole world - you may not want to live there, but please, please, if you're ever in Europe go see it. Wonderful country [img]smile.gif[/img]

It's true alright, ask Sir Bryonas who told us a while back. Something about violence I believe, the government wasn't happy with the messages being sent across by games like GTA3.
