Fallout 3 May be Banned in India Due to Post-Apocalyptic Cows

It was previously reported that Fallout 3 would not release in India (at least on the Xbox 360) due to cultural issues, but this may be the reason why. There are two-headed cows in the game (remember, it's post-nuclear) called "brahmin", which I believe approximates the name of one of the old Indian castes. I should be more clear, this isn't actually yet a ban, but so far Microsoft just said they weren't going to sell the game there. It may become a ban in the future.

Anyway, this sounds a lot like an April Fool's post I would make, seriously. People are so sensitive about media...
