Red Dead Redemption banned in UAE?
Red Dead Redemption appears to be banned in the UAE. Or is it? We haven’t heard any official word from Rockstar or the UAE government about the ban taking place, but the buzz on the street is that yes, it has been banned from distribution in the region.

UAE retailer Dubai Mall has reportedly told customers that the game has in fact been banned in the country — which should come as a bit of a surprise considering that we have not really seen anything ultraviolent in its screens and trailers. Unless of course they have a thing against cowboys and whipping horses into full throttle.
Meanwhile, local UAE distributor Red Entertainment can only mumble a very useful PR reply of “no comment”.
Red Dead Redemption is set to gallop out to Europe and PAL retail stores on May 21st, 2010.
