    I've been away for a while due to personal reasons.

    Yes, it's not the first time I hear about this law. I've read a couple of Greek articles about it and I can say this situation is very funny. Since they can't do anything about the home users who play games on their PCs and the ones who play games on their cellular phones, I think this "Law" won't last for too long. Sooner or later the Government must stop these ridiculous thoughts about gaming and focus on gambling. These are two different words. They must realize it.

    I agree. this is unbeliveable..


    Actually does it also ban the selling of such devices/applications?
    Is it illegal to buy it from a shop, will they firewall all "Game" sites on the web?

    Ohhh can they sue MS for including Solitair and minesweeper in their OS's ????

    Sennectus see your PM's.

    According to what I have read in theory at least, you CAN be prosecuted for owning any electronic device that has a game on it.

    As I said earlier, sooner or later they will realize this law is just crap. It won't last for too long.

    Greece was where modern civilization began. Are they taking it back?
