*cries*... its official, Fallout 3 has been banned in the land of Oz: palgn.com.au/
IMPORTING:
Bright side: importing is cheaper and we get the full experience
Down side: longer wait and we miss out on special editions!

OFLC = Officially ******* lame ****s
i'll import for sure,but to ban this game in the same week as the art world is trying to say naked child pics are okay blows,so basically gamers are again treated like second class citizens unable to decide for themselves what is suitable
A lot worse movies will be allowed in trust me....

Im doing a run around now, and some good places to import from:
www.estarland.com- US$56.95 / US$79.95 (SE)
www.play-asia.com - US$64.90
eStar is definately the better place to order it ATM. Anyone suggest any more good places?

ARGH!!! No credit card = Shadowblade must wait for some importing shops to get it in Melbourne... and even then I won't get the lunchbox edition
NOT HAPPY JAN!
Unless there would be someone nice to import me a lunchbox copy
Also, Bethesda have confirmed that there will be no killing kiddies in the game, I'm guessing the ban is due to the unregulated use of a prescription only medicine (Morphine) in the game... so this really BLOWS

I usually import all my games, banned or not, simply because Australian retail prices are a joke.
Anyways, I just love it how you can buy porn (dvd's) at JB, but can't get an R rated game. Double standards if you ask me.
