fishermanGTA Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 I am boycotting the Australian version. Not because I care about a little bit of digital sex. I am boyotting it because the government has no right to tell me, an adult, what content I put into my mind. Where do they get the balls.

steakncheese Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 I knew that the "Region Locked MP" one was fake, but I'm yet to see any evidence supporting the opposite, which is worrying. Can anyone confirm that I will be able to play other Aussies with my UK version, as opposed to just debunking a rumour? LOL @ above post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kraxxuz Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 Thanks for the links mate. Glad to hear that the changes really are only minor. Which is good, I can't get it from anywhere else besides Australia, damn UAE. Other Aussies think that the OFLC is tight, try here, all GTA's have been banned .

I'd get a UK one if I were in OZ. I was always under the impression that Australia had a leftish liberal government. Maybe they just turn to fascists when it comes to videogames?....

El B Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 Good find..got to admit was worried that serious things were cut out of our version but by the sounds of it seems so minimal, that it wont be a big deal for us... especially was worried bout that online region lock Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe they just turn to fascists when it comes to videogames?.... Before a sh*tstorm of "K.Rudd V HowHard" erupts, I think supporters from all camps would agree with your final statement. It's ridiculous how much attention this sort of sh*t gets, yet International relations, war, famine, climate change... Basically which anything which forces you to think gets zero coverage. Rest assured, Anna Coren will be investigating how GTAIV affects 5 year olds on Today Tonight by the end of the week. I'll wager a f*cking slab on that.

Mr J. Thompson Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 THIS IS A BLOODY OUTRAGE, WE SHOULD ALL REVOLT!!! IF I WANT THIS GAME, I WANT IT UNCUT MOTHERf*ckERS! WE MUST TAKE UP ARMS AND FIGHT THE OPPRESSORS THAT IS THE THE AUSTRALIAN CLASSIFICATION BOARD!!! BLOOD IS GONNA FLOW ERE THE DAWN LIGHT COMES, I TELL YOU!!! ugh, maybe that was a bit extreme......

Pherby Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 the link doesn't work for me, can som1 tell me what was taken out, thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dannydeviant Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 Great news, thanks. Could it be that Rockstar let it slip that they censored the game so the Australian media didn't go ape sh*t and have it banned. When in reality the game is not censored at all and it was just cleaver marketing? Rockstar can't say what was censored because in truth nothing was, thoughts?

iceman654 Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 "When liberty is taken away by force it can be restored by force.

I am NOT going to support censorship or outrageous retail prices. End of story. If you're stupid enough to give up your freedom voluntarily, god help you when you wake up and want it back.

illusionzzz Posted April 28, 2008 Author Share Posted April 28, 2008 It's not really out government in power, it's that one f**ker from South Australia, can't remember his forgettable f**kn name! I'm still undecided whether to get a local copy tomorrow, or import from Ebay. I really don't want to wait! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What is the difference between them taking our rights to play a video game, and our right to vote? Yes, the right to vote is far more important, but in the end it is just the government taking control where they simply should not have any. I wish the government would stick to courts, police and defence, and leave everything else the f*ck alone. What buisness is it of theirs if I like violent videogames?

Yeah there is one knob licker in the south who hates GTA, thinks it is immoral, therefore because HE doesn't agree with it, he thinks that everyone else should be forced to agree with his twisted idea of morality.
