Visit  China Cracks Down on Online Gaming [Crackdown 3] China Cracks Down on Online Gaming [Crackdown 3] in Crackdown 3 CensorshipChinaChinerFree SpeechOnline GamingPC
By Owen Good
el 10-Oct-2009

You could go through the Oxford English Dictionary, pick a noun, and China's likely cracked down on it. (Except counterfeit goods). Online games that are "unhealthy" (says the state) are the latest target, and 45 have been shut down.

State authorities said the games "encouraged players to engage in illegal activities such as drug trafficking and prostitution," according to the Beijing News. The offending games were run from abroad and had not received permission to operate in China. Wait, so, CrimeCraft's available in Chengdu? Wat?

Here's my favorite detail. According to Agence France-Presse, "more than 200 online games had been investigated as part of the campaign, launched to coincide with communist China's 60th birthday on Oct. 1." Kotaku agrees that that is how you f—-in party down: Just start bannin' the hell out of everything.

That gives me an idea. Oh, and, because I just got off the phone with someone from the U.K. I would like to say the following: "Chiner." That is all.
