[Schwaltzvald]

Looks like recently that there may be a chance that Australian gamers will finally see a R18+ rating.

I really hope they go with this R18+ thing because It's driving me up the wall. Their reasons for not having it are such idiotic.

Just do what I do mate, blame Michael Atkinson (The South Australian Attorney General). That man is the most vocal (if not, only) in opposition to the R18+ rating in Australia.

... The bloody douche (Shakes fist)

It's HIS idiotic reasons. Not OURS. Differentiate the leader's idiocy, and that of its populace.

Sorry if it seems like I'm raging, I'm kinda sick of this whole thing. Though this does look oh so very vaguely promising. In the Duke Nukem Forever kind of way.

Well it looks like Australia got something out of the mess as the ban on Sega's Aliens vs Predator had been reversed as in it's uncensored. Whether the game sucks or not is not so much the issue but the fact that it had been released gives the Aussies some hope for the new R18+ rating imo.

Well, that's a start at least.

Now if they could do something about Left 4 Dead 2...

With Alien Vs Predator being released it shows how broken our rating system is for games.
