Fallout and Cross-trading

Open
Hague

For some reason, Fallout New Vegas and Fallout 3 are not available in my region (I reside in India). FO:3 was cancelled apparently in India due to the Brahmin-cows and religious backlash, but there's no reason why Vegas isn't there. I received FO:3 as a gift a long while ago, and it works just fine. I was hoping to acquire a copy of NV from a friend in Netherlands. However due to the new trading restrictions I'm not sure if it will even work on an Indian IP anymore. Can someone please confirm this?

TL;DR will Fallout:NV as a gift from Europe work in India where it is currently not available in the region?

"...but there's no reason why Vegas isn't there..."
BTW, i think this is "due to the Brahmin-cows and religious backlash", as brahmins are presented in F:NV either.

The Brahmin cows actually make a return in Fallout: New Vegas (NV).

There is an unmarked quest called "The Screams of Brahmin", where you will solve the case of murdered Brahmins.
Also, you can consume Brahmin Meat in NV.

These 2 pages will show if you can activate NV is India without problems:

Likewise, Dragon Age: Inquisition was banned in India for homosexual game scenes. Even though Mass, and Dead Effect are still on sale -- with full homesexual scenery.

Its unnatural for oak and cherry trees to touch each other.

Holy crap, I thought censorship and ban are ridiculous enough in my country, but there are countries that have even more ridiculous censorship and bans. Haha.
