Episodes from Liberty City Now Coming to PlayStation 3 and PC this April

Rockstar writes - "Due to a last minute game submission request from Sony Computer Entertainment Europe to edit some of the in-game Liberty City radio station, television, and internet content – we are forced to delay the worldwide release of Grand Theft Auto: Episodes from Liberty City for both PlayStation 3 and PC for an extra two weeks.

The new release date for Episodes from Liberty City - and the two downloadable episodes The Lost and Damned and The Ballad of Gay Tony - on those platforms is now April 13th in North America and April 16th in Europe. This new date will enable us to rectify these changes for Sony Europe, and still allow for a level playing field for all of the Grand Theft Auto fans that have been waiting patiently for this release. In the meantime, we're moving full speed ahead towards the new game release date. On that note – please be aware that the Grand Theft Auto IV PlayStation 3 leaderboards at Rockstar Games Social Club will be down for maintenance for one week starting March 22nd as we work on their re-launch in support of Episodes from Liberty City."

my response

I hope they don't edit out anything in NA.

[Megaton]

Censorship fail.

-10 points for Sony.

[rambi80]

My spider sense says - Publicity stunt to grab some headlines

[Yi-Long]

... and how sad is Rockstar for agreeing to it!?

Such a disgrace. Censorship shouldn't happen! It's ridiculous that because some countries might complain, a game gets altered.

Nice one SCEE

[DOMination]

I wanted to play this on my PC and now I have to wait even though it's sitting there ready to be released. Thanks a lot Sony.

[zeeshan810]

They want Rockstar to take out some contents from the game.

[sabestar]

But it was released on Xbox 360 with these content in it in Europe. Why would they censure or alter the ps3 and pc version?

[zeeshan810]

I always thought Microsoft censors but I was wrong its SONY! :(

[Charmers]

They are not censoring the PC version, they are only censoring the PS3 version. However Rockstar are such console whores that they are holding the PC version back and refusing to release the PC version till the PS3 version is ready. However the PC version will be uncensored.

[CaliGamer]

I didn't even finish this D@MN game, much less will I spend money on some cr@p DLC. They all fail all around on this one IMHO.

[StartWars]

Great timing - this was going to be my birthday present!

[ThePlaystationFour]

GTA4 Failed. Gimme GTA5.

[TABSF]

PC all the way

[va_bank]

Must have found something deemed offensive to a certain religion...

[brianunfried]

A little too late, these look more fun than the original game. I couldn't get into the main character in GTA4, they should have called it "Grand Theft Borat".

[zeeshan810]

That's a lame name "Grand Theft Borat".

[DaTruth]

I'll be happy for this! It's a given their censoring the wang scene and I couldn't agree more!
