How come google tells me Steam sells this but I can't find it in the Steam store?
Here.
After I click on the link, all I get is this

http://store.steampowered.com/

I guess they don't want Germans to buy this even though the Hexen & Heretic Collection is not banned here. Awesome!

Sorry. :(
I wonder what other games they don't show me in the Steam store...
It costs $9.99 USD. I can get it for you and send it as a gift if you send me an amazon.com gift card in exchange.

(The gift card thing is because I'll be spending that money getting a book tonight or tomorrow anyway, so it'd be better for me than paypal or a GoG to add to my ever-growing backlog of games :P)

Thanks for the link.

WOW, there are 5 pages of games I am missing from my Steam store. WTF!! I can understand why they aren't showing me banned games like Manhunt and games with Nazi symbols in it but not showing me Hexen 2. WTF.

It depends on a region. For example, in Poland DLC for FEAR 2, DLCs for Fallout: New Vegas are not avaible at all.

It appears that in your country Hexen and Heretic classics are not avaible, sorry :(

That sucks. I can't understand why is that. Because in Poland there is no video game censorship, but some games are not avabile to buy. And then they are surprised that piracy in Poland is high.

Thanks for the info, though. Didn't know Steam is selling such great game pack. Unfortunatelly, there is no Heretic II in this package (my favourite game)

But the reason why Commandos games are not avaible in germany is strange for me. Is it because of nazi flags and symbols in the game? Because as far as i remember
nazi symbols are forbidden now in Germany?

edit: what? Drakensang: River of time is not avaible in Germany? It's a german game, for christ's sake? What the hell?

I don't know why Drakensang River Of Time is not available in Germany... But yeah, Nazi flags and symbols are only allowed to be shown to educate people about the Nazis. They are not allowed in PC and console games.

River of time isn't avaible in Poland also :/

And about nazi flags this is strange, because in Commandos game you FIGHT nazis, there is easily shown who are the evil in this game.

But law is law, I presume..

I think in all games with Nazi flags and symbols, you fight Nazis so I don't understand that law...

Some people say this is because the government wants to vaporyze Nazis from history, but I think they just want to cut off the modern Germany from Hitler's Germany as strong as possible.

But I don't think that's the right way to do so.

Yeah, I don't see Poland censoring the old hammer and sickle in most games. And Russia allows games that feature a gigantic Stalin on the battlefield (see Stalin vs Martians).

That's because Stalin was a positive character in this game :D
