That kind of justice may sound Greek to you -- and it is! The Greek government's ban on playing computer games in public got a little ludicrous when two Internet cafe owners were charged after police found customers playing online chess (gasp!) and the popular Counter-Strike game. Evidently the ban is a little too broad -- it's intended to crack down on gambling, but it doesn't have a clause to exempt computer games. A judge threw out the charges in the cafe case, saying the ban is unconstitutional.
