Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars has passed the British Board of Film Classification with an
"18" rating, which is equivalent to the ESRB's "Mature" rating. According to
Edge, the DS title -- the first ever to receive an 18 rating by the
BBFC -- passed with "no cuts made."
Apparently it was a very clear edict from
Rockstar's
Sam Houser to developers that the game receive an M rating and maintain the franchise's
adult tone. The game has yet to receive ratings from the United States'
ESRB or Australia's conservative
OFLC.
