Vice City Facing Changes For Australia

Australia's Office of Film and Literature Classification (OFLC) refused to grant GTA3 an MA15+ rating last year when it was released, causing it to miss the Christmas holiday. Without at least that rating, a game cannot be sold -- unlike the United States, there is no Mature (17+) rating in Australia. James Ellingford, Take-Two's managing director, said that the game would be edited to meet Australian censorship standards, including the removal of the prostitutes that appear in the game.
