"Fallout 3's" kicked the habit, because it has no drug references for all regions. The censorship of drug references originally only
applied to the Australian version. Now, it'll affect every single copy of the game. Here's what Pete Hines, Bethesda's vice president and PR had to say, clearing up the "confusion":
“An issue was raised concerning references to real world, proscribed drugs in the game, and we subsequently removed those references and replaced them with fictional names. To avoid confusion among people in different territories, we decided to make those substitutions in all versions of the game, in all territories.”
Sure, it's their job to put a positive spin on everything, but sometimes, it's a little too much. It's sure to get "Fallout" fans in an uproar, that's for sure.
