This would have boosted the feminists morale.Not long now until they call for an outright ban of the game in Aus now....

Why is is that when movie's have violent content, they are fine to be sold, but as soon as it's a video game, it is immediately disgusting and should be banned?

Because people have the incorrect perception that games are for children and are aimed and marketed towards them. Given time this perception will hopefully change and with that change games will finally not get crucified for having content that's been in movies for decades.



The violence against women in GTA5 is worse than the violence against men?

This is why Australian gamer's, always get screwed. We've pushed for the R18+ rating so that games don't get banned, but it seems that hasn't stoppped that. I hope other retailers don't follow suit.

Target are like "we made a shit ton of money from this game when we undercut EB games at launch, now over a year later we can please all those stupid mothers that shop here because sales have finally slowed down". Seriously though it is kind of stupid, wonder if it will just be this or all R rated games.



well to be fair, target don't really sell many games these days so no loss really as most gamers don't go there.

If we still did not have a R18+ rating for video games then I would be very concerned about the possibility of such a ban occuring.

Fuck the cowardly women who hide behind anonymity while spouting their blatant hypocrisy and lies.

This. I don't see females getting in a panic over the video games that have men being beaten or killed.



WTF?
