PlayStation 3 owners with Grand Theft Auto IV can now (virtually) carjack with more purpose. Rockstar has released the Trophy patch for GTAIV tonight, technically a few hours earlier than expected.

Earlier this week came the news of Microsoft pre-emptively choosing not to release Fallout 3 in India, citing “cultural sensitivities.” It’s interesting because rather than wait for a ratings board or authority to ban it, or local media/pissed off people to demand it’s banning, Microsoft just said nothankyou.jpg and took its business elsewhere.
