I don't think it will be banned, probably not even censored. I believe, Aussie gamers correct me, the law says, "If an illegal drug is depicted or used to give the player benefits," but in this sense Franklin is buying a completely legal pharmaceutical. It can't be messed with since Medical Marijuana is legal In California and Franklin must have had a card to buy it. So it's fine, right?

 

EDIT: The official law says, ""...elements of illicit or proscribed drug use related to incentives or rewards...", so basically what I said.

The point R* will argue to the ACB.

 

I think it will be fine.

I absolutely f*cking hate the ACB.

If they censor this game Ill be pissed.

Well if that happens before the release you can either

 

Cancel your pre-order (if you orded GTA V that is) and wait till it comes out and buy it off Ebay or Amazon. Or you can just cut your pre-order and order it from somewhere else.

 

Wait for Rockstar North to release a patch to add the Censored stuff back in. (They did the same with IV) Stuff got censored like blood and hookers. (R Released a patch to add it back in) May be 2-3 weeks wait for the patch tho ( Thats if it happens)

Who cares? Its not gonna be banned or censored. Theres gonna be weed in the game, now we can enjoy weed in 2 different worlds, gamer world and real world.

"Restricted (R 18+)

 

The content is high in impact

 

R 18+ material is restricted to adults. Such material may contain classifiable elements such as sex scenes and drug use that are high in impact. Some material classified R18+ may be offensive to sections of the adult community. A person may be asked for proof of their age before purchasing, hiring or viewing R18+ films and computer games at a retail store or cinema."

 

The guidelines actually say a game can have drug use that is high impact - just can't get a stat boost or other reward, and the drug use can't be instructive, neither of which will be in the game (not R*'s style) - we got nothing to worry about

I'm an Aussie, even with the new R18+ Rating there is a chance. It's run by a bunch of old farts, they'd get sh*tty at the fact Trevor beating up Old People. I wouldn't be surprised.
