This is the fully uncut version, if it doesn't get released here evntually then I'll be tempted to import this one.Is it the fully uncut original version or is it the new completely edited version that Rockstar have done to ensure it goes through as M rated as opposed to AO in the US?.
OK, so if this is the full uncut version as suggested, what is the point of having a rating system in the UK? It has to be a serious waste of money... I know these types of games have been discussed to death, but I'm now on about the "power" the UK Govt has to stop people playing them over here.
It's as if we (as in the UK) don't count when it comes to making rules.
Is it actually getting released over in The Netherlands?
Yes, but that would mean having a modded PS2, which illegal in the first place.
I, for one, will patient and wait for a proper release wether I fork out for an American import version for my PSP being region free, or should it be actually released in Holland, I'll pick up a copy for my Wii or PS2.

Who knows were this leaves the likes of me who modded my own Gamecube and Xbox before the ruling and bought a pre-modded PS2 from a UK company (White-Dog). Am I meant to take them apart, remove the chips and bin my imported games![]()
Do they have far worse crime in Holland due to their liberal views regarding drugs, sex and violence? The answer is quite the opposite. Rather than the media choosing games to blame for the problems why don't they blame the people who let them have access.
Yep, it's much easier to blame "evil video games" for all the teenage violence etc..., before that it was video nasties and before that it was rock n roll, I dare say something else will come along later to replace video games too.
Regarding the release of such a violent game I think it is the attitude of parents and retailers that needs to be looked at. Films can have far worse content in them without getting blanket banned, why is this different for games. The answer is because everyone knows that many parents will let their kids play any game they want. The rating system is further undermined as many shops don't properly enforce it.
