Without Germany, my career at Destructoid would besodull.
If it wasn’t for theircrazy legislation regarding gamesor theiramazingly badfilm maker du jour, I’d be known as “thathipster who craps on people’s musical tastesand espouses the benefits ofan all-bear government“. Thank you Germany, for turning me into the Elijah Lovejoy of the gaming world.
So what has Germany done this time? Apparently theGerman branch of Amazon.comhas decided that Sony wasn’t gouging people enough with the price of their PlayStation 3 console, so they’ve decided to take matters into their own hands. They are nowforcing people into purchasing a PSP and a copy ofRidge Racerin order to pick up a PlayStation 3. What if you already own a PSP? I imagine they point and laugh at you as you add another to your growing library of useless Sony branded plastic.

I have a dream that someday Germany will redeem itself, possibly by offering me large sums of gold. If you Germans make it happen, I won’t even ask where it came from. It can be our little secret.
