GTA3 too violent for Japanese minors

A t-shirt? That's the only place I saw it ^_^

I have nothing against the GTA games. And as others said, they're not just about the violence and obsenity, and they're by no means *that* realistic either.

I remember the day Vice City came out - I pre-ordered it and went to my local Game, but I was 17 so they wouldn't sell it to me. My fatal flaw was that I went there in my school uniform -_-
I got my brother to buy it in the end. So even if they did have similar regulations in Japan, they'd still be just as flawed as they are in Europe.

Nothing beats Saudi for that kind of stuff! I used to live there - for example, with every magazine imported there, some guy (at customs or wherever) would have to go over every single remotely scantily-clad woman with a black marker...
