  • Son of a BITCH! GTA3 has been banned over here!

  • Because playing them is not enough, we have to bitch about them daily, too. We had a Gameplay forum, but it got replaced by GameFAQs.

Shit like filtering the Internet through a proxy and making it illegal to put adult material on the Internet is enough to make me leave the country.</div>

<div style='font: 9pt verdana; text-align: left; '>They're naive, easy to get around (how hard is it for distributors of pornography to move their servers off short? Not very :), and will almost certainly be heavily revised pretty sharpish. But this! I wanted GTA3 for Christmas, God damn it! I know people in England that could send over a copy, and if worst came to worst I could just import the American one, IF Australian customs authorities weren't threatening to seize and destroy any copies they find! Gaaagh! Insanity!</div>
