UK Will Get Uncut GTAIV
Well, who'da thunk it, right? After all that crap with banning Manhunt 2 and then wussing out and reversing the decision, UK ratings authority the BBFC has decided to just man up and give Rockstar's Grand Theft Auto IV the go-ahead for a release. And get this — there's nothing cut out of the game!
After viewing over five hours of gameplay and eight minutes of cutscenes (that doesn't seem like very much), the BBFC gave it the OK. So fear not, UK gamers — you will get all the boobs, blood, sex and violence that Rockstar intended. Or as the BBFC reported, "strong violence, very strong language, very strong sex references and drugs use." Awesome!

Other stuff like this: bbfc, grand theft auto iv, rockstar, uk
And to think most guys from UK that I know are uncut... Oh, the irony...
Woo
*tuts at audioeric* as Rockstar/nature intended ;)
That hooker's most definitely a tranny.
The BBFC is more likely to ban something completely than advise cuts. From a British (uncut) perspective the American ratings boards as silly. They will allow every kind of violence under the sun, but won't allow anybody to see any nipples! We all have them.*
*Except Barbie
It's 8 hours of cutscenes, not 8 minutes. =) cheers
