can we try and keep the racial crap outta this plz i dont really care on if u h8t aus or usa h8t china ect but its not really nessasery for this thread

i agree ( although i may have started it blush.gif )

sorry, i like aus my family lives there, anyway

 

i rang up my local EBgames today and talked to them about it and they told me that they use a different distributor than gamesplanet nz , therefore they basically told me that its down to what company in nz you bought it from that determins what version you get ..... heres to hoping right?!

i totally agree wit u all about wanting and deserving the uncut version, and yes NZ should have every right to have the uncut version due to their up to date classifications, yes ill be first to admit my last post was probably bit rude my apologies, Best of luck gettin the un cut version lads....

no worries dude... think most of us kiwis feel kinda ripped off........ 2 weeks before launch they announce this, bah, real arseholes.

 

Cant get the special edition anywhere else either....

 

Oh, i dont have any problem with aussie, its a beautiful place.

 

Wish they werent so back dated when it comes to gaming. Oh well.

 

playasia.com is where I'll be ordering my version of gta from.

 

4 Day wait, but ah well. At least it'll be uncut.

thnx didnt wanna get it outta hand ect just thort if ppl in NZ or aus didnt know thats getting it from NZ have a right to know

 

as for the special edition u can get it from playasia it dont have it for preorder or anything

http://www.play-asia.com/paOS-13-71-bp-77-...23fj-43-99.html

thats it there

 

also a warning for xb360 ppl that u will possibly have to get it from the UK as the USA region is ntsc and wont work in the console

 

as for ps3 owners any version (pal,ntsc) will work in the console as its region free

well it doesnt bother me coz i will guarantee you that the only difference if less blood and less gore and like that other topic about the scene that they are going to cut coz it envolves putting a weapon up a rude part, they will just point the camera in a different direction. thats the only defference!!!

Yes, PS3 is no problem. Theres no reion lock. But XBOX360!!! Most of games are US/CHN/JAP and EU/AUS. Not sure to import it from asia (unless if its region free (minor games)). bored.gifcookie.gif

woah i think i blacked out, what did i miss, suicidal.gif

 

dear australians,

the country of new zealand begs you to over throw that bumf*ck backwater governer that is the thorn in your rating systems side

 

sincerly, helen( i am a man) clarke PM

Hey peeps

not sure if this has been stated at all yet but i did a search b4 doing this and came up with nothing about it.

 

But Aus and now new zealand are going to be cencored i was only told just then as i have been at work

i did get a couple of links to confirm this so i dont look like a tool making crap up lolz

 

http://www.ausgamers.com/news/html/2615963

http://www.n4g.com/News-134946.aspx

http://digg.com/gaming_news/New_Zealand_GT...e_censored_also

 

so for all those ppl that where going to buy it from NZ ya may aswell can that order and get it from the UK US as its the same as the Aus version. Can anyone actually confirm this aswell from a screen shot of a email? as i hear if ya pre orderd from nz and live in aus they sent a email.

 

as stated b4 im sorry if this has been posted b4 ya more then welcome to link me to it and get the admin to delete this thread also

IF this is true, then i'll be one pissed of bunny!

 

Reason i doubt it is because every other news out there says NZ is getting the UNCUT version.

It has even been rated as R18.

Now our government is not nearly as arse-licking as the Aussie goverment, hell, our Minsters frequent strip clubs...

 

"Oposition leader Kevin Rudd's strip club visit may have endeared him to ordinary Australians, while suggestions of a smear campaign could damage the government, writes Michelle Gratton."

Source http://www.stuff.co.nz/stuff/4171966a12.html

 

Make someone is making an arsehole of a joke.

 

Here are the links to say the NZ will get the UNCUT version.

 

http://www.gameplanet.co.nz/news/131601.20...tralian-rating/

(link above is from Gameplanet (gpstore.co.nz))

http://www.moviestars.co.nz/News/Archive/8637.html

(The rating GTA IV got in NZ)

 

Least to say, if this turns out to be true, I'll be importing from US or UK!

If it doesnt, then i'll be on the hunt for the twat that puts out BS Information.

 

EDIT:

 

f*ck me side ways! ARGH, its true.

 

Coming from the horses mouth itself! argh! i really f*ckin hate aussie rite now! f*ckin stupid ice age rating system sh*t sucks balls..... anyone got links for a GOOD UK site to import the game from?

 

http://www.gameplanet.co.nz/news/131629.20...-Theft-Auto-IV/

yeah i dont reckon its true, i havent recieved a email from NZ yet, and all the game stores ive checked out on the net in NZ all say R18 and uncut etc etc,

 

 

i reckon its some funny joke WHICH AINT FUNNNY!

 

lol

porterhouse u might think its faulse info ect but game planet in NZ is one of the most known for there games if they have it on there site witch they do (http://www.gameplanet.co.nz/news/131629.20080415.NZ-to-get-censored-Grand-Theft-Auto-IV/)

then its def going to happen i dont think gameplanet would have post it unless they got it confirmed first so i'ld h8t to say it looks like thats how its going to be weather it stays r18 who know but it would be a fake r18+ if its cencored

Those with Australasian consoles won't be able to play online using the uncensored game.

 

Edit: The messages are different to the Australian games. So you'd only be able to join games played and hosted from the uncut version - e.g. playing with the Americans and British.

 

Sure, its good.. but you'll need to create a new gamertag with that specific country selected.

lolz throwing away MP ?? theres plenty of ppl around the world that will have it i dont think MP will be a issue

the only prob with one certain game was army of two where i couldnt play with my cousin in the US coz i had pal he had NTSC but weather GTA4 be PAL or NTSC it shouldnt have a region lock on it due to they are the same maps ect i highly doubt a game with this much hype on both SP and MP will have cross region lock on it

It's not the fact the game being different in region. That is OK.

 

It is the fact that the games use different CODE. They communicate differently. Different messages.

dude then why was it possible to play toca2 on my australian xbox with my australian friends?...your saying that censored and uncensored cant be matched in MP because of "changes" when the only change to the game would be in the SP mode.

It depends on the changes.

 

I'm not saying it is 100% out of the question. But it is possible.

 

Changing something in the game, anywhere, can possible disrupt the game in other ways. In this case, if the CRC doesn't match with everyone else on the server, it won't let you in.

i do understad what you are trying to say and yes its an iffy topic and nothing has been said officially just hoping that its all good.

We have been informed today that New Zealand will be receiving the same version of Grand Theft Auto IV as Australia. As you have placed your order after Rockstar announced that the Australian version was edited, we are assuming that you will no longer require the game to be shipped from us, as we can't supply you with an uncut version. The last thing we want to do is supply you with a product that does not meet your needs and we've therefore taken the liberty of removing your GTA4 order from our web site. We certainly hope we can be more helpful to you in the future! smile.gif

 

Kind Regards,

Katey
