10 Console Games That Will Probably Be Banned In China

6. Deus Ex: Human Revolution (PC, PS3, Xbox 360)

Deus Ex: Human Revolution, the 2011 intellectually-challenging reboot from Eidos Montreal, sets the player twenty-odd years in the future, travelling through Detroit, Singapore, Montreal, the Arctic Ocean, and a fictional (sound familiar?) city near Shanghai. It's basically Shanghai in twenty years. China in the future? It looks a whole lot like every other city in the game: inequality is brought to the biological level thanks to unregulated and free-market transhumanism, leading a society of corrupt technocrats with super-human powers. I'm sure this isn't the future China wants to sell to its citizens, especially with the country progressively allowing business to completely take over. (Probable) Official Statement: Banned for "presenting a horribly inaccurate vision of the glorious People's Republic of China" and "having a racist portrayal of a poor homeless woman; seriously not cool guys."
