Oh dear... Oh deary dear...
First of all, this list has Doom 3 (Ok, understandable) and Quake 4 (lol, just no).
But notice anything else...? No Quake 1? No Doom 1? Deus Ex? Fallout 3?
Wow... That list is a bit... lol...

It might be worth noting that Id games have been censored in Germany before. I don't know if they are still censored now, but they might be.
Or they were rated X or something and had to be bought under the counter, not displayed or advertised, people had to ask for them at the counter.
A commercial German gaming site like that might be required or feel obligated to not mention such games because it could be construed as advertising.

Dunno about all of the id games, but in germany, Wolf3D was banned because of nazi symbolism. Nintendo of America required the SNES version of Wolf3D to be edited so that no nazi symbolism was visible anymore. I think Unreal Tournament was banned in germany as well.

That video is fake
Angry German Kid (a.k.a. Der echte Gangster, Slikk or Leopold) is a talented actor of age 15 from Bergisches Land, Germany. He plays a character, Der echte Gangster, a parody of a wannabe gangster. This fact has often been misunderstood, and as a result he has been subject to bullying both on- and offline (e.g. school). For this very reason, he stopped making videos for almost a year in 2006.
"I am not sick or mad, I only have a sense of humor not everyone immediately understands. In addition, I have acting talent. I can do something so real that many think it is real. For this reason I will be insulted by many and hated. The aim of my videos or movies is to entertain people, not provoke. Nobody should take my short videos on the Internet seriously - they are merely for entertainment. No matter what people think or say, I am a very normal boy with acting talent."
- N. K. (aka "Slikk" or "Der echte Gangster")

Video information:
This video was made as a response to some German politicians attempting to restrict access to violent video games. He was trying to show how they view gamers. Very amusing and intelligent. Too bad most people missed the point.
"Journalists" from Focus TV (Germany) used this as an example of an internet addict, claiming the kid to have been secretly taped by his father and to be undergoing therapy in addiction clinic. Naturally, this was not what "Leopold" understood to have agreed on when he gave approval for airing it on TV.
From the video description

I put that bit in
red to show you have selfpwned by missing the point, just like it says.
It has sources linked there but the links are broken, or Google Translate isn't working.
Edit:
tl;dr: It's the reverse, that fake video was made because of the censorship, not the other way round.

That's why I smirked. It's pretty obvious.

I didn't know why he faked it. I just knew it was fake.
