I feel the same way regarding games like Dead Rising,i'm living in Germany atm and i can't buy it on Steam.Hate this regional restrictions

Dead Rising is a very different case to Dead Island. Dead Island does not have regional restrictions. They just didn't publish it and it got indexed (you must not advertise/sell it to minors). You could still buy it as an adult, if Steam had an age verification and Deep Silver publishes it.
Dead Rising on the other hand got confiscated (you can't advertise/sell it to anyone, but you may own it) and Capcom themselves do not allow playing it in Germany, even if you bought it abroad.

It's terrible, but it is not the fault of the USK.
The publisher didn't want to publish Dead Island on the German market. Because of that Valve is not selling it there. Of course Deep Silver didn't release it due to the child protection laws in Germany, but in this case they didn't even try.
You can also blame Valve at least a little bit. If they had a working age verification system, they could sell most titles in Germany uncut to adults. Probably some publishers would then even publish their games (for adults only).
BTW: There is a large Steam group for that topic: "for UNCUT!".

It's still not that easy with a age verification system when the game gets on the index. Besides I don't think Dead Island would just get on the list,I am pretty sure it would be also confiscated like L4D2. That would mean that even with 18+ you still would not be allowed to buy the game here.
Edit: Ok,just read that Dead Island was removed from Liste B,so confiscation isnt a matter anymore. Still JuSchG could be a problem,but one could argue about that.

I don't think so. They confiscated the INTERNATIONAL version of L4D2 in Germany. It took them 3 months. Dead Islands international version is "only" indexed. I don't think they would rerate the game that long time after its release. Very few games are confiscated in Germany. Left4Dead2, Mortal Kombat II, Dead Rising, Manhunt...
...most other games are only indexed.

Yay, protest government restrictions by not paying the developer who has stated that they hate the law and hope people circumvent it.

Well yes it's annoying. Got uncut Sleeping Dogs and I'm unable to buy DLC's for it now in the regular Steam store X_x

Croatia does not equal Germany. Just because a game can be activated/played in one region doesn't mean it can be in others.

Was genau hat doch gleich die USK mit der Unfähigkeit Valves bei der Implemtierung einer Altersverifikation zu tun? Es ist ja nicht so, dass Origin&Co das hinbekommen. Aber Valve kümmern die Gesetzte ja nicht, schließlich könnten sie dann kein CoD mehr an 12-Jährige verkaufen.

I hate that crap in Germany.
Just nice deals on steam and a single game is not displayed, and this is of course again 'Dead Island'. I would finally like to buy, no matter how, but I can do it i get only from abroad, that is why I think, I get the game never.
I hope that the USK hopefully will be abolished, I will finally can play freely.
It is just as someone like me?
Excuse me for my lousy english, it is not my mother language.
