Rockstar: Sony to Blame for PS3 GTA IV Liberty City Delay
In a statement that is the very definition of unequivocal, Rockstar Games has used its blog to point the finger squarely at Sony for a two week delay on shipping GTA IV: Episodes from Liberty City for PS3 and PC.

"Due to a last minute game submission request from Sony Computer Entertainment Europe to edit some of the in-game Liberty City radio station, television, and internet content - we are forced to delay the worldwide release of Grand Theft Auto: Episodes from Liberty City for both PlayStation 3 and PC for an extra two weeks", reads the text.

The new release dates for the content are April 13th in North America and April 16th in Europe.

Why the need for the edits? "There are different regional requirements for content – whether dictated by ratings boards like the ESRB and BBFC or by SCEE – this is pretty standard in the world of entertainment."
