The People's Republic Of China is the antagonist country in Call Of Duty: Black Ops II, one of the biggest video games of all time. Set in the far-off future world of 2025, the story sees the country as a world superpower engaged in a new Cold War against the United States. That probably didn't help matters in getting the game actually released in China, because nobody likes to play a game where they're the bad guys. In fact not a single Call Of Duty game has ever been released in China, with Activision currently testing the waters with an entirely new online title created especially for the country. So far it's failed to set the local gaming scene alight. In a world where AAA titles rule the international gaming world, China stands as a singular, unique exception. Consumption of media in the People's Republic is pretty distinct. The Communist regime keeps a strict handle on anything that could reach a mass audience, censoring TV shows, films, literature and even the internet. You know how weird the Chinese version of Iron Man 3 was? Imagine a whole gaming culture like that. Titles are censored, Sony and Microsoft fight not just for dominance but to even exist, there are games that have never made it to the west and people who's entire livelihoods revolve around playing such titles. That's just a smattering of the ten weird facts about gaming in China.
