GDC08: learn to say USK the German way!


While attending the Gamerscore Blog Meet-and-Eat this evening we were fortunate enough to run into Boris Schneider-Johne, part of Microsoft Germany's Xbox team and an all around amiable man. After a long conversation about the cultural differences between German and American gamers (they love their Catan over there), we eventually settled on the topic of the Unterhaltungssoftware Selbstkontrolle (USK), Germany's software ratings organization. While it's often hard to wrap one's head around the particulars of the USK, one difficulty outweighs all others: how exactly do you say Unterhaltungssoftware Selbstkontrolle? Boris was kind enough to set us straight in the audio clip below. Just don't ask us to repeat it.
