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.

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.

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.

They took the prostitutes out of it in Australia, and I think that they are trying to ban it over there.

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.

No chance. It has to be a lie.

I'm not saying ban the game, though I do think it takes realism a bit too far at times. Saying that though I did enjoy driving round knocking people off their Motor Bikes whilst listening to Blondie.

You sound like the Daily Mail, for that you must die

The game gives you a CHOICE to do that stuff. Sure, you could rodger a hooker then kill her, or you COULD drive around, following the speed limit like a respectable person

I wouldn't be suprised if they do, infact I'm suprised they didn't ban the first game.

Shooting terrorists in a game is one thing, but the ability to pick up prostitues take them off for a quick how's ya father then shoot them is just taking violence too far.

I don't wanna sound like someone from the Daily Mail but the game shows how deprived society is if they can make games out of such graphic material and act like it's normal behaviour.
