Wikipedia Wrote:Since January 2008, the marketing of Counter-Strike is prohibited in the Brazilian territory, by decision of the justice of the country . The judge argues that Counter-Strike and EverQuest games "bring immanent stimulus to the subversion of social order, attack on the democratic state and law and against public security, impose a ban and withdrawal from the market." The company claimed that the game stage that the court used as a reason to ban the sale was cs_rio and that was in fact produced by fans, not available in the original game. However, the judge Silva Costa won and the game is banned to be sold
Nonsense, there is a very solid CS scene in Brazil. The country adopts, as US and Europe, a classification system, no movie, game or music are banned from being commercialised, there is only some restriction to where it can be sold and who can consume them. There are plenty of stupid judges giving lame sentences left and right and all of them get overthrow by the Supreme Court. If you want reliable facts, wikipedia is not the place to go.
Brazilians likes AC caus is awesome and free, period!
