German Counter-Strike LAN Ban

A story from a few days ago on GotFrag eSports indicates that anti-gaming backlash in Germany is continuing, as they report the German government has prohibited playing Counter-Strike at public LAN events. According to the story, this has resulted in the cancellation of multiple ESL Friday Night games, and the Convention-X-Treme tournament, and a translation of the German-language Convention-X-Treme Website discusses how this decision came down, and their efforts at meeting with the powers-that-be to discuss the situation. Thanks Ant and Planet Half-Life.
