Fallout 3 Australian Edition: Classification Pending

Coltrain | August 03, 2008 | News | PC Playstation 3

Fallout 3 has had a shaky Australian history, but the news has been revealed that The Office Of Film And Literature Classification is currently reviewing a modified, Australian friendly, version of the game.

The details of these changes are yet to be detailed, however this final step looks to be a formality and the game on track to hit shelves as previously reported here.

JB Hi-Fi is selling the game anyway. I checked out their newest catalogue and it says Coming Soon "Fallout 3".

  That doesn't mean anything.I saw the display cover for Saints Row in EB Games a month or 2 after it was canceled for PS3.

Yeah their likely haven't caught wind of it yet or it was produced before cancellation, JB risk being sued if they did that

So the game is still being sold? Or a censored version is being sold?

I don't see why they can't just add a Drug warning on the front and be done with it. It's barely even 15+ material, let alone 18+ material.

  Well a censored version has been submitted and will likely make its way to being sold in Australia. It's not being sold right now (it hasn't even been released yet has it?)
  
  It is ridiculous for it to be banned over such a thing a morphine increasing your stats, in the edited version would they have just removed it or what?
