Australia Bans Grand Theft Auto 4 Can't Post
Australian officials effectively banned the computer game "Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas" and ordered it removed from stores because it contains hidden sex scenes that can be viewed with a special Internet download. The censorship from the The Office of Film and Literature Classification said in a statement it had outlawed sales of the game by stripping it of its official classification after learning of the explicit content.

After downloading and installing a modification to the game — one of many "mods" available on Web sites maintained by video game enthusiasts — a new world opens up in which the girlfriends appear nude and engage in explicit sex acts, according to the modification's author.

The classification board in October 2004 gave the game a MA15+ rating, meaning it could be sold only to people aged over age 15, and warned that it contained "medium level animated violence, medium level coarse language."
