Six Days would feature a meticulously accurate in-game version of the city, real life Marines and their likenesses, and recreations of the events of the battle.

In , Konami backed down from publishing the game. Atomic Games announced that the game is finished and still coming out, but has no release date.

Microsoft and BioWare's sci-fi action role-playing game Mass Effect has enjoyed immense popularity for its expansive storyline of alien invasion, extensive dialogue trees, and, of course, numerous romance options. But not all countries share the positive view of the latter. Commander Shepard can be a male or female in the game, and romance options exist for a variety of characters of different genders and races.

This didn't sit well with countries with more conservative views on sexuality. Mass Effect was banned in Singapore because of the possibility of homosexual and specifically lesbian and cross-species encounters between a female Shepard and the feminine Liara T'soni, though the ban was later lifted in favor of an M18 rating.

The Manhunt series follows a death row inmate who is captured by a mysterious man called the Director and brought to a place where he must kill in extremely brutal ways to survive. The murders themselves are shown in a hyper-realistic manner, with stars awarded for more graphically violent kills.

Rockstar Games are going to appear on this list more than once; they've made some of the edgiest and most popular games of the last two decades. But while it's no surprise to see countries and government banning Grand Theft Auto or Manhunt , it may seem surprising to see their classic Bully, about an English schoolboy working his way through the boarding school system, on here.
