They'll try, they'll fail.
Some kid will commit some great crime and the parents will say "well, he did play this game a bit" and then they'll try again, and then they'll fail.

They took the prostitutes out of it in Australia, and I think that they are trying to ban it over there.
What makes me laugh is Sony have no quarms in selling agame with graphic violence, drugs, muggings, car jackings etc etc. Yet when a game like BMX XXX comes along with a bit of nudity, they cut it.
Same goes for Wallmart in America, they refuse to sell the game cause its rude yet this is a shop that sells sells guns readily over the counter.
What a crazy world we live in.

that's funny. Ban a game that's been on sale for two weeks. What are they going to do with the half million copies already in people's homes? Send customs officers on a door to door refund scheme?
Hilarious.

I heard the same rumour for the original Grand Theft Auto. Thinking it was going to get banned i rushed out and bought the game. No doubt both rumours were started by the publisher.

At last Bartender something we agree on, it is rather like shuting the gate when the horse has bolted, once something is a general release that is it because the censorship board have seen fit that we as the nanny state of Europe can play this game or watch a particular film.
Anyway ask yourself this if they banned Gta VC what about all the Gta3 games out there how do they justify selling that. The cartoony graphics are what saves Gta from being banned because it is seen a s unrealistic that is why they get away with violence in Cartoons. However this could prove to be a bigger problem for The Getaway which is realistic we will have to wait and see, depends on how gory it is.

They have done it before with the Chuckie film. It was the media *The Sun* who created such parenthood hatred that thousands and thousands of copies were destroyed and then the film was banned.

I think you will find that only applies to the US version and that the UK has not been cut at all.

The fact of the matter is that the people that should be held responsible are the ones that sell the games. I don't see any uproar about the amount of under 18's that go to see film's at the cinema that they are clearly not old enough to see and the same goes for video's, it should therefore be the same videogames. Each game comes with a Certified age and it is the parents responsiblity to see that there child is not playing games of this nature and keeping to childish nobrainers like Mario Sunshine.
