Fallout 3 Banning Fallout

Further to this morning's post about the game Fallout 3 being banned down south comes the reason for it being banned.

Corresponding with the list of various "chems" are small visual representation of the drugs, these include syringes, tablets, pill bottles, a crack-type pipe and blister packs. In the Board's view these realistic visual representations of drugs and their delivery method bring the "science-fiction" drugs in line with "real-world" drugs.

That's right, the drug use is too realistic, not the killing. Pfff... did they not see Bioshock? Seriously, who in their right mind would pick up a giant syringe from the soggy carpeted floor of a run-down underwater city and shove it into their arm?
