what a waste of money

Well first one got bad press around the world for being as violent as it was, it has claims it was the cause for a murder as well and they decide to make a 2nd that is even more violent and do not change the name of it, of cause all the parental and bizzybodies and guv type folk will condemn it.

207!!! That game is sick and amusing together.

This will make people more curious now, wonde rif it will ever get leaked to the net if they think it is such a work of art. After all, to be pulled by the publisher as well means it must have been pretty extreme.

Nah, the reason the publisher pulled it is because Sony and Nintendo have refused to licence the game for use on their systems as they dont allow the US Adults Only (AO) rated games on their consoles. If they hadnt denied the game on their systems, then Im sure the publisher would have gone ahead and released it even if it did only get to a limited audience.

Ill bet they are looking at editing it now to try and get a release as they have been having some money trouble lately and having to scrap a game they have probably spent loads on will really hurt them.

Losing money, you mean with all those deals over GTA IV and content, yeah i am sure they are really hurting.

They knew it would be a risk, if they didnt, they are just plain stupid.

Hell, if nothing else this is some fantastic press coverage just before the release of their next big game.

Tbh, if it was anything like the first it should be banned anyway for being a crap game.

Rockstar are a dangerous company games wise, and take 2 knew full well before they signed them up.
