You can kill men too, but hey everything is fine there, right? Women are obviously weak and can't defend themselves, so let's ban a game for shits and giggles. Maybe that will decrease domestic violence rates!

Games like this are grooming yet another generation of boys to tolerate violence against women
Get over it clown. Target is a private business and as such they have the right to carry or not carry any product they want. As a manager of a retail store I had to make these types of calls all the time and no books were ever harmed in the process.
I was just browsing this thread wondering if someone would bring that up. Oh well, we still have EB Games, JB Hi-Fi and Dick Smith at least.One of the companies in New Zealand also recently removed R-18 games, movies, music and literature from shelves. While GTA V was the main culprit behind this decision, instead of removing just one game and monitoring any other R-18 content, the decision was just made to get rid of R-18 content altogether so the company can present a more 'family friendly' image. Here's a link for further reading.

Why not?So... they make a new rating so Australia can get graphic video games but still protect their children from accessing them but then just pull games of that rating anyway?
Seems a bit... useless?
I mean I don't think we should be selling GTA V at Toys R Us but there's a rating in place to ensure as a consumer you know what the game contains.
