Still No Call of Duty for China Gamers Getting Xbox One

Chinese consumers will get their first shot at legally buying game consoles today after a 14-year ban, as Microsoft Corp. begins offering its Xbox One in 4,000 stores. The trouble is none of its most popular titles are available because of government restrictions.

Shame about the government.

[Gazondaily]

Destiny has violent content? Come on!

[christocolus]

Apparently the game features weapons(futuristic weapons).

I wonder will games like conkers bad fur day or even Jak and Daxter be allowed there? Cos it seems weapons/shooting of any kind is prohibited but then again MS is working really hard to bring Halo5 to China i wonder if the weapons will be removed entirely from the game.

[BiggerBoss]

@christoculus. How would they remove guns from Halo? Lol. Unless they just ship forge mode to China or something I don't see Chinese gamers getting halo anytime soon

[XBLSkull]

Yeah only gotta wait til 2016 before his term is up though, be here before to long man. We'll get through it.

@AlphaBlackWolf96
oh okay, I just see the words "shame" and "government" and that's the only thing that comes to mind

[AlphaBlackWolf96]

He was talking about China's goverment. Not Obama's presidential term.

[WeAreLegion]

You say the word, China, and we'll come democratize you.

With Love,
America

[Software_Lover]

.......... You mean demoncratize?

[AlphaBlackWolf96]

lol

[WeAreLegion]

No. I mean democratize. It's when you make a country better. ;)

[hkgamer]

yes let 'Merica come to save the world!

lets teach the world how to make money from weapons, lets help countries and give weapons to everyone.

[Eonjay]

And to think, we Americans complain about our intrusive government.
In China, they take censorship very seriously. It wont stop console from selling, but it will restrict the types of games that are legally sanctioned in China. And the funny think is, I would love to play some games by Chinese developers.

[AlphaBlackWolf96]

I don't actually know what Chinese games are like, save for some free games I played on the WeChat app.

[sAVAge_bEaST]

So,, No FPS , unless you shoot rainbows, and flowers?

[LookAtYou]

Chinas trying to save their people from endless money grabbing rehashes.

[hkgamer]

definitely, the chinese people dont need to waste money on money grabbing games made by companies outside china. lets make an identical game instead with a slightly different name and make money ourselves =P

[Shadow Man]

Not a huge problem, once they find a way to hack it they'll get to play all the games they want.

[hkgamer]

think destiny would have a hard time, its very mmo like so i presume lots of updates are needed which would be a pain because it would need to be approved by the chinese company partnered with microsoft.

also wondeing if cod isnt being realeased announced in china because they may have a deal with tencent games. maybe tencent games own the cod license in china. i dunno.

looks like games will take a while to get released in china, so maybe cod will come in 6 months time?
