wat a load of crap
cant somebody make a petition to get it back
anyway if a kid was that desperate to see a sex seen and downloaded it they would hav 2 hav the internet and there is pornography all iva the internet
so come on im a fan of gta myself and its the only 1 i dont hav at da moment
GET IT BAC ON DA SHELVES

in regrads to the above post.

all that kid would have to do is watch late night SBS movies.

Yeah SBS has alot of those type movies.

I live in central vic and the council have just allowed a criminal to open a brothel, that kids walk past blah blah blah bit of a fuss but would this not be more improtant than a damn video game.
If they r so worried about the sexual content then they need to clean up the streets first before taking over peoples private lives, its ridiculous

Hey, I gotta get me this game now. If they didn't say anything, I wouldn't have known anything about it! LOL!

And, oh, if it aint in the stores, I wonder where I might be able to get it *ponders for about a millisecond* I know *ding, light bulb shines above head* off the Internet via BitTorrent or something.

Nah! The Aussie censors have a VERY VERY strange idea of what to ban and what not to ban!

yer i live in vic as well,not 2 far from were i live there is a sex shop now i see kids walkin past it and lookin in to it, now if they ban a video game cause of some sex scenes that the kids wouldn't even be able to work out how to get it to work anyways, why don't they ban sex shops from the public areas

Well what do expect from a government hell bent on blowing up innocent people, allowing TV networks to advertise violent shows during children viewing time then kick up a stink because some goose shows his willie on Big Brother.
The Howard motto: Make war not love.
The same can be applied to the US

Speaking as a liberal minded individual from the US, I support the attacks on the game. Just as the violence and low mwntality in the game attacks the fabric of social civility in our culture, attacks on the game are justified.

I didn't support the invasion of Iraq, and I don't support the current cell of nasty extremist leadership that our national "51%" has installed in our whitehouse. They suck.

I support an ecclectic moderate middle ground based on guided by individual freedoms, not guided by corporate freedoms.

its a god dam game let ir be good lord dont you have some prostites to arriest or some sh*t

i think the problem is with the people that are selling it not the ones buy it because my some bout area 51 witch in toronto you have to be 18 over my son is 15 he looks 12 and he just walked up with the game she asked if he was 17 over he said yes and she let him buy it

Well why dont we compare the GRAPHICS in the game(s), to what we actually watch in the evenings on TV at say 7 in the evening onwards, ok so then why not ban TV all together, cause it shows a more REALISTIC version of the graphic that govs are making a big fuss over!
Its actually rather pathetic!!

I find it ludicrous that this game is being pulled.

Are parents now going to remove their children from the filthy propaganda being broadcast on local as well as national television? This kind of material is far more dangerous.

No, let's instead pick up on a computer game - it's much easier to morally digest..

This ban is ludicrous. although i am a U.S. citizen, i think that it is rediculous that they ban the game in australia. I am 30 years old and i love GTA:SA. I allow my 8 year old son play the game with the audio turned off due to the harsh language. In my opinion no Parent should be allowed to buy any game for a child unless they have actually played the game before hand. I have played the game prior to allowing my son to do so. I know what is in the game and i know that it is an adult based game. more and more games are being made for adults to be playing and not children. parents should realize this, so bans like this dont happen. It disappoints me that parents are so uninvolved with thier children that an entire country has to suffer.

k, what the heck are those guys thinking banning the game? are they f'n retarded or what?

Are they going to ban it in the usa and canada?

you now man they r always taken away our shit n you know wat its not our foult thatsom tiht ass perents get pissed off if they dont want their kids to pay the ame then dont buy it 4 them !bitch! for us that watch porn and like stripers its an every day thing (the game) so they sholdn't take it away from them basterds it there right to buy it.

thats wat i think dam hillary clint0n im sure her and her husbn watch porn to so they should stay out of it

Censorship is always going to bring about different opinions.
I believe people have the right to choose, view, read, act, think and say what they like. What one does in the privacy of their home is thier buisness as long as their actions do not harm anyone. No one has the right to to impose their beliefs on everyone else. Governments do enough of that already.
Granny and all parents have the right to decide if the game is or is not suitable for thier younger family members. Prior to her mouthing off to the world only a few people knew about the hidden sequences. Now the whole world knows. The authors of the game would have quietly removed that part of the game if it's existence was going to affect sales.
Oh well the lucky ones who already have the game will make a nice profit auctioning the game on ebay.
There is no sense in censorship.

i still can't belive it i thort it was only the pc version getting banned but none of em are on the selves any more i wanted ta get the pc version oh well, do ya recon it will come out agin??

Funny you say that....It's almost like they are inviting you to break the law...If you can't get the game off the shelf, even though you are willing to pay for it, the next best thing is to DL it, correct??

They shouldnt ban this.This is a good game.I usually dont play that much,but this one is good.

what can we do lol im just hoping that it might get released agin, If they ban GTA;SA y don't they ban games like the sims there mods that are pritty much the same as the hot coffee mod

---

This is one of the best to come along.It's hard to believe they would keep it down for long.This is big money for them

i think that is bull.they spend more time trying to stop video game sex and not enough time stopping real prostitute sex.pretty stupid.if they try to ban it in usa,it wont work becuz the constitution won't allow it.

and another thing,parents who get mad when their kids play this...stfu,you let them buy it.it even says on the box that it has adult content.and hilary clinton needs to stfu too.she's only trying to boost her ratings and one day become president.i can't even imagine a life with her as president.

hotcofee
the US is as fcked

bible thumping,corporate loving,war mongers on the right

Utopians threw censorship that are intolerant threw tolerance,elites that have never been in the real world,philanthropy of the worlds poor by stepping over our own on the left

We sir are screwed 0-o
