The news sets a precedent for Apple’s game approval process, where the parameters of lenience on Apple’s part appear to be more restrictive than previously thought. Drug Lords – or, Underworld – is a location-based MMO which takes the player through the daily duties of drug trafficking. The game uses the iPhone’s GPS features to turn your surroundings into a gameworld where deals can be negotiated.
What is not known is if the name change was compulsory, or if A-steroids made a conscious decision to change the name regardless of Apple’s approval process. Edge is pursuing Apple to find out.

UPDATE: Apple has declined to comment on the matter. The company tells Edge that it "does not discuss its internal strategies as we prefer to focus on our products and services."
