Default GTA IV too violent for Chicago
Tefra's PC Specs

AN ADVERTISING CAMPAIGN on Chicago buses to peddle the new Grand Theft Auto IV game has been pulled after a local telly station bosses considered them too violent. The advertisements for the game were pulled when the local Fox news station pondered if they were such a good idea while coppers deal with a rash of shootings.

However, according to Games Politics, the adverts didn't actually show anything violent. They just had pictures of the characters from the game along with the name GTA IV.
