A Rockstar spokesperson confirmed to Screen Play yesterday that the company had produced a special version of GTA IV to comply with the Australian classification system, which does not currently contain an R18+ rating, but declined to reveal what material had been cut.
The game has been rated R18+ by the British Board of Film Classification, New Zealand’s OFLC and the German Unterhaltungssoftware Selbstkontrolle. It has been rated M17+ by the Entertainment Software Rating board in North America.
I’m to cross to even write anything in the body of this post relating to it
The fact that rockstar confirmed a few weeks back that we were getting the same version… @#(@#$#!!!
Sucks to be you. Luckily nothing gets censored here in the Netherlands. :)

2 | Frunk April 4th, 2008 at 9:46 pmI think only 2 or 3 things have been censored here in the UK.

Jewish references, apparently.
I’ve only got a 360. It will be fine, they wouldn’t censor the violence. Just the sexual stuff.

For people stuck with a 360: Either wait until it dies and replace it with a PS3 or wait for the inevitable PC release. Of course you could just import the 360 release from the UK.
