Battlefield 3 game banned in Iran
The Iranian authorities have officially banned the computer game Battlefield 3 , developed by the studio DICE and published by Electronic Arts. Sale of Battlefield 3 is prohibited in all computer stores in the country. The plot of the game in the fictional near future provides for the assault on the Iranian capital Tehran, using tanks and aircraft. Before the introduction of the official ban, many were afraid to sell the disc - there were rumors of police round-ups and arrests of shop owners.
The military conflict begins with clashes in the area of the Iran-Iraq border, after which American troops are moving inland to neutralize nuclear weapons. Intensive firefights take place around various industrial sites in Tehran, as well as in urban neighborhoods and the historic Tehran bazaar.
In Tehran, the Marines have time to find a container with nuclear warheads, which Russian arms dealer Amir Kafarov illegally sold to Iranians. The Russians in the game are represented by a rather friendly nation: Russian special forces simultaneously with the Americans begin the hunt for Kafarov, and get to him first. The commander of the Russian detachment informs the Americans by friendship that the nuclear warheads have already been sent to Paris and New York.

Official sales of Battlefield 3 started on October 25th, with five million copies sold in the first week. Although there are no official EA resellers in Iran, the locals are actively downloading the pirated version via torrents. As history shows, such bans usually only fuel the interest of gamers and increase the popularity of the game - including in the very country that initiated the ban.
When will the studios release the game with the bombing of US cities and the murder of the American militia? This game should be an absolute world hit.
