And to necro a thread... I normally wouldn't do this....
but ALL WE HAVE IS A FUCKING REBADGED MA15+ RATING
Saints Row IV has been refused classification in Australia... even after introducing an R18 rating...
The longer I:m out of that bloody country the better I'll be...
Politicians et al can all go smoke a pole as far as I'm concerned

Fuck this shit, isn't Witcher 2 here on GOG also censored because it was refused classification.
What the fuck is it with overbearing dickheads in government here who want to regulate their morality onto everyone else. I bet none of the people who even put pen to paper on making these laws have even played a video game, and live in some hysterical fairy-land of "WE HAVE TO PROTECT THE CHILDRENZ FROM GAMES!!111".
I would say this means I'm going to vote against the government in Sep, but then again the Libs would probably be even WORSE on this type of thing (if that's possible) so I guess we're truly trapped. Except of course until everyone just pirates the uncensored US version and the govt gets no GST revenue from it. Real smart one there.
EDIT: Fuck this, I'm so angry I'm going to email my federal representative (who is an independent) to ask about this.
