The Australia rating system is worse than GERMANY!
No shit, It is.[/QUOTE]
It's really not as bad as Germany, Germany seems to censor the in-game parts more.
Australia just denies the games. An example is the CS:S lying on the floor animation found in German copies of CS:S.
[QUOTE=MuTAnT]They work because they're so ridiculous. I could save everyone from being murdered if I locked everyone except for myself in a cage.
I mostly hate the laws related to Paintball and Airsoft. I hate it that Paintball markers are classed as firearms... It's a great sport and honestly there are so fewer injuries involved than in Football... What's up?
Anyway enough with the rant isn't FEAR 2 the version no one wanted anyway? I thought we were all buying Project Origin or whatever it's called. The one by the original developers.[/QUOTE]
FEAR 2 is Project Origin, they changed the name.
[QUOTE=s0m3_guy]Australia was a sickly fucked country that raped and killed their own people. There's documentaries on how screwed up some people are. It's probably why they're banning stuff. They even banned the documentaries because they didn't want people knowing. There was a show about some drug dealer and a corrupt police chief based in Australia; that was banned too. So Australia seems to be banning anything like that.[/QUOTE]
You're an idiot, either you're not in Australia which means I assume you might be one of those Americans whom don't know shit about shit regarding countries that aren't called "America"
I guarantee you while no country has a perfectly clean record, ours isn't even that bad compared to many others, especially America, we had the whole Aboriginal thing going on which was pretty bad, we apologized for that and everything is better these days.
Go to school and learn about a planet called "Earth" you might be surprised at the truth.
I think we really need this 18+ law for games though, it's a tad annoying seeing this stuff banned.
But the internet is always a good alternative.
(I don't hate Americans, I just dislike the fact that a lot of Americans have either no idea or the wrong idea about most of the world.)
Honestly most games that people say are going to be banned or are banned, are usually not. The only games I really recall being banned are a couple of the uncut GTA games and Soldier of fortune, or postal or something.
our stupid government is so screwed up ROVE FOR PM
Australia's government also wants to filter porn from the [b]entire country's internet[/b]. They've since come to realize that oh yeah, censoring the web is nearly impossible without pretty much cutting it off entirely.

It was obviously never going to happen from the start.
sucks to be an Australian.
You fight against a naked minor witch girl, a fat zombie prick who I've dubbed "puppet master" because he can make ragdolls pick up guns and fight you again, and every time you go into slow mo and shoot someone you see more blood come out of that wound than they should have in their entire body. To be honest, I think it's gonna be game of the year in America.
While things are being censored like this, piracy will always be rampant.
Yahtzee's gonna be pissed!
You don't need that much gore, seriously, the most gorey MA15+ game is enough, making them change the names of the drugs in Fallout 3 was a bit rich however.
they let in FEAR 1 but not 2 ? wait what ?!
