Fuck them. Steal it. I was going to buy it ’til I found this out. That said, I’ll wait and see before doing anything hasty.

nuh i think its okay u might still be able to play us version or uk version on your aus machine

ive just orded the game from some guy on ebay its an uncut US version of the game - he said u can play it on your console because the game isnt region locked and Sony said u can play any game from any country..

Sorry for the state of shock i only got one reply out of it though lol so it must have not been that bad of a shock to people

I never got that email, and my copy has been pre-ordered from GamePlanet for months. What’s going on here?

GTA IV on the PS3 is going to be region encoded meaning that if you have an Australian PS3 the US version of the game will not run on your console.)

looks like you'll get stuck with the cut version - it cant that bad

O.o I wouldn’t freak until you hear a second source on this. a Few years ago gameplanet advertised the full version of GUN for PSP back when it hadn’t even been announced as a port to PSP. It even went on sale at one point… it was up for about 4 months. So yeah.. wait and see wait and see. it IS unusual that they are the only source on this.. even the Sydney Morning Herald mentions “The game has been rated R18+ by the British Board of Film Classification, New Zealand’s OFLC and the German Unterhaltungssoftware Selbstkontrolle.”

I am cancelling my order for GTA 4 because everyone are unsure if NZ will be get Uncut or Cut version. Let us NZ gamers stick together and boycot the game cause it looks like they are treating us like kids too!!!!!!!! Fu$% This!

If we allow this to happen now it will happen again!!!!!!!

Why the hell don't adult gamers in Aus bring a class action suit against the government? If you're an adult why shouldn't you be entitled to look at adult material? I can't imagine any other country where adult gamers would accept that sort of censorship lying down.

Pre-orders elsewhere are still risky though. We may be getting the watered down version, BUT if you choose to pre-order one from overseas, then you MAY be facing Multiplayer issues, unless you’re in it mainly for the Single Player.

Just as i was starting to get excited about it and all !!

Certainly has taken the shine off it all. I will now wait and see what has been cut, what has not.

I will still hold out hope that we will get the uncut version. If not it may be a case of import.
