bummer

Well all i can say to this is thank goodness i'm not a german or an aussie!! the game will prob still kick ass, but without headshot animation it takes away from the GTA coolness.. and without prostitutes how are they plannin on gettin the extra 25% health???

GTA VCS

Well I Hope They Dont Chop Half The Game Out For The Australian Versions Or I Will HAve To Buy From Us Stupid Laws We Have Here!!!!!!

What??

Is suddently coming for PS2 too???!!

lol

does anyone remember how in gta3 if you changed language from english to german then all the blood and gore suddenly stopped. anyway psp games are region free so it wont bother them that much

They shudnt complain they can always buy it from abroad thanks to the psp being region free :D

PS2

There is no PS2 version of VCS!

Yeah Will They Squeze It Out Before PS3 Launches Or Will It Release With It? I Got GTA LCS For PS2 And I Must Say Id Rather Play It On The PSP!! But GTA SA Still Is The Best Game (Will We Ever See A Port For PSP?????) GTA GAME A DAY HELPS KEEP THE GIRLFRIEND AWAY

Well im german and i can say it doesn't mind to cut GTA VCS. I only buy the US-version in Amazon.com and so i dont miss the bloody features... I always buy the US-Versions 'cause they're unut...

I´m also german - maybe there will be a version 16+ but we are a free country - every second shop has both versions - german and us - they are only not allowed to advetise it - but who needs ads :)

Who cares...

I'm german aswell but who cares if the german version is cut. Just buy the Swiss Version which is german & uncut just like in Liberty city stories...

liksang

german here too. ill just buy it off liksang or whatever....there will be a way. region-code-free consoles ftw!!!!

Well...

I'm german, too, but I can live with the cut features. Headshot animations are really not that important if you ask me, the only thing I might miss are the amok runs. I really don't know which version I shall by now, because I'm afraid nobody else around here will buy the us version, so I might miss the multiplayer mode, but then again, my friends who have a psp don't play GTA anyway... And the US-Version has a german translation anyway...

LOL

LOL I WILL LMAO WHEN THE US VERSION DONT COME OUT WITH GERMAN TRANLTION LOL THEN YA *****ED IM GLAD I LIVE IN USA WOOOOO

multi

german too, the last us gta version and the uk version were uncut and with german language, so i think it will be the same with vice city stories, and if not i can handle a game in english^^

Austrian Version?

Was the German GTALCS Version cuted? Because I've got a version bought in Austria (German speaking neigbourland of Germany) which was uncut (but rated 18). As Austria is a small country i don't think they'd press extra UMDs for that a small market (even though the european UMDs are printed over here)

okay

Already answered by 14 (and UMDs are not printed but pressed (at least the data)) im also getting the uk version, cause the english just sounds better.

@ #13

Well, I don't care about the german translation anyway. I don't need one, because I understand english games very well.

dont you know?

hehehe don't you know that? in germany every thing is rated for a little age. i where in germany 3 weeks ago... my friend(his german :D ) showed me that one of his DVDs with the german box but the disc(dvd) made in usa so the box says 16+ and the disc is 18+ this is how it gows in germany

Yeah, I hate the USK and the people that cut the GAmes. But you can get gamesevery where...even uncut Versions...

Who cares?

I'm german as well but i don't give a damn whether it is cut or not. I'm going to buy the austrian version of gta:vcs because it is in german, too and it is usually uncut.

Censorship and Content Editing?

Who the hell do these so called goveernment people think they are anyway? What shall they edit next? your thoughts probably

lol losers

looks like geman and australian gamers are importing. These cut-down versions will get the poor sales they deserve

GOD BLESSED AMERICA NOW I KNOW WHY I DO THE PLEADGE IN SCHOOL ;]

DAMMIT. In New Zealand here we get all the auzzie games. Looks like ill just get the iso =)

i get the violent verson

hahahah i get to kick ppls corpses and u dont! hahahahah

Varying ratings

Most Australian versions of movies, games etc that are rated 18 in UK/US are MA15+. So I'd imagine it would keep all its features.

um

to the guy who posted psp games are region free not ALL are if you look on the back of the nascar box it is listed as region one most games are region free tho

I have the australian lcs and its rated ma15+ but still has all the gore and prostitution, so i cant see any reason why vcs would be any different.

Don't forget about something

The bigger question is will which firmware does it use and is it possible to emulate it with devhook

OMG

I'm shocked that a country gets more cesorship for the first time than the overprotective USA , wow! this is shocking news. Anyways here in PR a friday 13 movie can be put on local channels as a pg movie and an american pie movie as a pg or pg 13 movie , USA is *****ed with all those R18+ and N17. Anyways they're government is crazy , you can see it by the illegal decisions their government takes worlwide everyday :S

Also....

The USA flag and their eagle represent slavery , greed , and control

It won't be censored in Australia

San Andreas and Liberty City Stories weren't censored in Australia so I doubt Vice City Stories will either. Kyle M., I'm not sure you know what you're talking about regarding Australian classification.

yay! american GTA's!

I'm so glad I'm getting the violent version, So after playing I will go to shcool and shoot my classmates, teachers and then my family, steal a car and blame GTA and Manhunt! ( I hate when people do that) Censored verison sucks, But I guess it's ok for minors

Seriously??

Dang. I feel sorry for the Germans and Aussies. (As if the death of a certain somebody wasn't enough for Australia already.) Looks like they'll have to do some importin' to get some REAL taste of the action...

LCS is MA in aus and still has all the gore

My version is rated MA on the box and on the disc but nothing has been cut out... also, here in aus we have region 4 stuff and i have a region 1 lumines and i had a region 2 ssx and they both worked. funny thing is, i bought them both from EB:S

Stupid german nazi pigs. And Kenshin rules but shut up Oro!

ya bob. we r all nazis round here, your right.

ISO *****A

HA im aussie but im gonna be downlaoding a us iso anyway so it doesn't matter ^_^ unles they make you update to like 2.8 but devhook will be updated by then anyway.

WTF?

@37 aka bob: It's still fascinating how supid ignorant kids like you can be... My dad is american and my mum is german. Both are born after WW2. They have both nothing to do with all that ***** happend in WW2. So why do ya call us nazi pigs? What about Vietnam & Cambodia for example? What the hell was the reason to make war in these countries? So stop flamin' around here & shut the ***** up. I'm not proud of both parts of me, the american and the german one but I've got nothing to do with the political ***** that happend in the past... So long...

GTA: VCS in Australia

If a game like Saint's Row can stay untoched my the OFLC then a game with less graphical detail will be untoched.

thanks goodness im american

Land of the free

...

you guys are *****in pervs if you felt like this was an important aspect of the game, that you will miss.

important

People enjoy doing things in video games, that they would'nt do in real life. us government better keep there moral ad values outta my games.

Wrong wrong wrong

How many times do people like #44 need to be pointed out that they are WRONG. I noticed that there was no story of this on the front page of qj.net regarding a recent major news story, so let me post a link to it here: http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,213743,00.html Video game violence DOES contribute to societal violence. Just listen to your quotes from above posts: "but without headshot animation it takes away from the GTA coolness" "I only buy the US-version in Amazon.com and so i dont miss the bloody features..." "These cut-down versions will get the poor sales they deserve" "hahahah i get to kick ppls corpses and u dont! hahahahah" "I'm so glad I'm getting the violent version" Morons.

My condolences...

Thank you Mr. Howard and the Australian Government for giving us something else to ***** about. Luckily I'll be over in the US around the same time it comes out so maybe I'll pick up a US copy. It's surprising though - normally our Government imitates America... don't see why we don't have uncut games. Glad to be supporting you in the "war on terror" in "Iraq", boys. And now explain to me how I turned a post about game censorship into political insanity.

Sex or Violence? What is worse?

Europa: Violence! USA: Sex! Europa: But killing people is evil. USA: But loving people is evil. Europa: You should make love every day. USA: You should make war every day. Europa: Guns are the devils playthings USA: Genitals are the devils playthings so... its up to you forming your own opinion

Sex or Violence?

Maybe Down Under. I'm from the US (bet you didn't know that about God), but I like Australia a lot. Visited when I was younger. And we Americans who are fighting the war on terror do appreciate the support of the Aussies and their long term vision of what this world CAN be 20-30 years from now. It has taken that many years of terrorism for the US to open its eyes and get off its ass. It will take that many more to straighten this problem out.

TO #45

ur mabey right, but im talkin to all the sane people out there, who can do anything in a video game : kill, prostitution, and steal without trying it in real life. Im happy the us government trust me enough to know i wont , but i suppose every goverment tries to control what its people see, hear,and believe, however when it comes to my video games :( .

haha #47

Europe: I hate polluters USA: I hate censorship Europe: Bloody americans! USA: *****ing british ( yeah , they have something against british not Europe ) Europe: make peace by hugging our enemies USA: Make peace by attacking our friends Europe: Wow , Usa's president is the dumbest human being on earth USA: Wow , our president is the dumbest human being on earth ( lol ) Europe: I read USA: I read .... I think Europe: wine is good USA: bee is good Europe: We europeans are so smart ( in a gayly way ) USA: We americans are the best ( in a dumb way ) Europe: We are white ( in a gayly way again ) USA: We are *****s! ( especially white american rapmaster wannabes say that ) Europe: Bloody americans , your country is damaging the world ( well that's true ) USA: Bow down to us , we americans are pro liberators! ( haha ) Europe: We are a great continent ( yeah right ) USA: We are a great country ( haha , that's even funnier ) Europe: I'ts USA's fault , I hate americans , blah blah...! USA: It's the England's fault , and also germany's fault , and Spain , uhh.............. is that all the countries on Europe? Europe: The Beatles are the best! USA: 50 cent is the best! Europe: I bet the canadians hate being part of north america , they must feel so bad that they are near USA , I pity them , also blah blah blah....... USA: I bet Vietnam hates being part of Europe.... wait no , Vietnam is in south america so..... I bet Japan hates being part of Europe!
