Many gamers may question why "GTA" was given a rating of R18+ and "Saints Row" was refused classification. Especially seeing how both games are quite similar in content. The ACB recently re-reviewed its decision on an unedited version of Saints Row 4, but reaffirmed the Xbox 360, PS3, and PC game's ban due to its depiction of drug use. Publishers for "Saints Row," Deep Silver, is expected to submit an edited version of the game to the ACB.
