UK retailers PC World, Currys, and Dixons will not carry Rockstar's controversial game, Canis Canem Edit (Bully in the US), which was passed with a 15 rating by the BBFC. The company that owns the three, DSG International, have felt the need to adhere to family values.

Dixons do sell the GTA triple pack and Scarface: The World is Yours. So this seems more of a way to avoid bad publicity than family values.

Also most of my friends in England wouldn't even think of buying games from Dixons as they are seen more of an electrical store than a computer game shop and usually employ air headed bimbos who are as much use as a chocolate teapot.

If places like Game or Gamestation didnt stock it then it would more of a worry.
