Millions o' Monkeys Posted December 13, 2001 Posted December 13, 2001 i htink he meant to say... Cant you order it offline, and have it shipped ?
CaptainRAVE Posted December 14, 2001 Posted December 14, 2001 Yea, just order it from amazon.....the american version would be pretty much the same. At least it will be in the right language
TornSoul Posted December 14, 2001 Posted December 14, 2001 If I'm not mistaken I seem to remember reading about a poolhole in this law of Australia they used to ban GTA3. It says something like they can't have the game on display in shops, but according to the article it didn't say anything about not being allowed to sell it when people ask for it. Don't know if this article tells the truth though.

Guest Letalis Posted December 15, 2001 Posted December 15, 2001 Oh the humanity! I was hanging out for it also...
CaptainRAVE Posted December 15, 2001 Posted December 15, 2001 GTAIII is officially banned in Australia, but Take-Two plans to tweak the game so that it can be released in that market at a later date. An Australian governmental review board has upheld a ban on Take-Two Interactive's Grand Theft Auto III in that country. The review board maintained the game's RC rating, which means that under the country's Office of Film and Literature Classification guidelines, GTAIII cannot be distributed, sold, demonstrated, or advertised in any form. Take-Two Interactive has said that it plans to review the OFLC ratings and make the appropriate changes to rerelease the game in Australia. The company did not elaborate on the specific changes but said that the game could be ready for rerelease by January.

I hope they not take away all the good bits. It would be sad if they change it so much that it was a tea party clone game. NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!
