It'll be worth it to skip the censoring though I'm sure.
Could you not simply make a US XBL account and download the US version of the game that way? I've heard of other people doing that when they live in other countries.

I was able to buy from other stores until late last year. Actually my account was UK account since I signed up 9 or 10 years ago. I think Microsoft changed their policy. Now, they require credit card from the same country. You have to have US credit card to buy stuff from US store. I was forced to change my account to the limited Saudi Arabia store.
I think there is one way to buy from other stores. For example, You can buy Xbox Live money from Amazon US and they will send you the code. You can use that code to buy from the US store.
Actually you reminded me about that method. I'll try it now!
Note: In the original post I forgot to mention that I have to pay $10 extra to Amazon to get it on release day plus $20 to ship it to Saudi Arabia.
Instead of paying $54 for the digital version I'm goint to pay $96 to get one week later! Pre order Cancelled!
