However, do note that the 18+ rating in Germany was before the 1995 re-rating and it's been 16+ ever since. Whereas in the US it was just rated down from "porn" to "17+ only". Note that R is also one of the two MPAA ratings that are legally binding. The movie currently is "adults only" in every country (listed on IMDB) aside from Germany, Italy, Sweden and Iceland. And in quite a few of the current "adults only" countries, it was re-rated to LOWER than its original rating at some point. My basic point stands unchanged: people who think the German government bans movies and forces game publishers to make blood green and insert robots annoy the fuck out of me, because it's at best wildly inaccurate and at worst just plain idiocy.
