GTA: Chinatown Wars Earns 18-Only Rating From BBFC
Today is a day of firsts: Rockstar's next murderous gem, Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars, has earned an 18-only rating from the British Board of Film Classification. It becomes the first-ever DS game to earn such a rating. Rockstar earned this rating without making any cuts to the game, which has been described as containing "very strong language and drug references."
It would hardly be a GTA game if it didn't.
GTA: Chinatown Wars also contains an impressive 168 minutes of in-game cut scenes, which isn't particularly relevant to this post but was nevertheless mentioned in the BBFC's decision.
Kudos again to Rockstar for their amazing ability to turn infamy into money. If it were only that easy for the rest of us!
