Metro Dev Smuggled Xbox Ones and PS4s Into Country due to the crisis in Ukraine
According to this article the recent political upheaval in Ukraine, Metro developer 4A Games--based in Kiev--had to smuggle Xbox One and PlayStation 4 development kits into the country to work on Metro Redux.
4A Games brand manager Huw Beynon told The Escapist that development kits had to be secretly brought into the country because if customs agents found them, they might not let them through without paying an exorbitant fee.

Hats of to these guys; even when their country is invaded and is on the verge of civil war, they are still determined to make great games. I hear they're relocating to Malta. Good luck to them.

I have so much respect for the Metro guys, more so now.

It sucks that the current political situation in that area has spilled over to video games. I cant think of the developer from Russia that couldn't get approved for visas to come to the US for e3
