Gears of War 2 witheld from Axis powers

Gears_2_withheld.jpgAs further punishment for World War II, Microsoft won't let Germany or Japan have Gears of War 2. If Vichy France were still around, they wouldn't get it either. The Italians should consider themselves lucky.

At least that's my theory. The official word is that there isn't really an official word, but it sounds like the game is having problems navigating Germany's notoriously violence-squeamish ratings board and there simply aren't any plans announced yet for a Japanese release.

On a completely unrelated note, India won't get Fallout 3.
