Capcom considering legal action against GTA3 age ban in Japan

TOKYO--Last week, the local government of Kanagawa prefecture, a region located immediately south of Tokyo, announced that it will ban the sales of Grand Theft Auto III to minors as of June 7. Saitama, another region neighboring Tokyo, also announced that it is considering the age restriction on the gratuitously violent game as well.

All I got to say about this is that it's nice to know that Japan fears our culture as much as we fear theirs.

Anyone know how old you have to be in Japan to buy a game with tenticle, ahem, "love" in it?

Just trying to see if there is balance.

They probably wouldn't mind the game if all the hookers were schoolgirls in sailor suits.

Friggin hypocrites over there.
