I think the other games were fine and got a 15 rating without cuts? And Take Two even promised the aussies an uncensored version and then a few weeks before the relwase they change it.
I wonder why they don't have an 18 certificate there for games.
Personally I don't care about age ratings, I'm sure we've all played games and watched movies many years before we were suppose to.
For my kids, if it's 18 then they can play/watch it when they're 12 . But I'll probably talk to them about it rather than just chuck an 18 rated game/dvd at them and say "here, go nuts."
I have a friend in Oz and he says you don't really notice the cuts too much anyway.

Just thought I'd mention that Rockstar have region-locked the game. Atleast on Xbox 360 anyway. C&VG put it on their homepage a few days ago when they couldn't play the UK one on their US Xbox 360...claiming they didn't have a UK unit to play it on.
Not sure if Rockstar would've found a way of preventing Aussies playing out copies though seeing as we're both PAL regions...

Wasn't that a side-mission in GTA (1?) on PS1?
Not sure how much censorship there is in the game, but they'd have to re-write half of it from what I've played!
