why cant they just put a R18+ classification on the games and be done with it!

Easy fix for that, get someone to get it for you as a gift with steam or just import it.

It's pretty stupid not having an 18 certificate these days. The removal of a spinal cord is definitely a little too much to get away with a 15
But at least it's a PAL territory so you can just import it from the UK.

Nazis!!!1!!1!1111!!!1!

Instant Godwin's law.

Yea, why don't the just give an 18+ rating of some sort, I mean persons over 18 should enjoy what they want and not having pushed some kind of censorship on their hands.
That just sucks.

What's the probability of a thread where the word 'Nazi' is used resulting in someone name-checking Godwin's Law?

1 Seeing as thats the whole point of the law in the first place. :rolleyes:

Do what most of the people in my gaming clan did with L4D2 (which was censored in aus) Buy it from the UK/US steam store lol

What does this thread have to do with killing jews? I'm a bit perplexed as to the fact that the title of the thread has nothing to do with the contents of the thread.

I saw the thread name and im like "WHAT! and then its just about the 18+ rating and im like "FAIL THREAD NAME!
Old news about the rating, if it changes its not going to be because you bitched about it on a LFS thread

lol i know the game shit they have been doing it since 96 (i think)

its just getting stupid australia is becoming extreamly over policed ill give u some examples


in the aera i live in your not allowed to work on ur car execpt to top up oil and water if you do ANYTHING else you can get a 5000$ fine


you can have your car defected for not having the gear numbers on the top of the gear knob (manual car only)

they can take your car off you for having an after market exhaust...

and if you bothered to read the criminal code act 1995 (think thats the right year)
you will be susprised on how long you can be jailed for stupid offence's

Where the **** do you live dude?


In Western Australia you can run radar detectors, and pretty much any modifcation so aslong as it isn't dangerous, theres no P-Plate restrictions on power etc

Move here, lol

i live in brisbane southside the working car laws are only in my district (that im awear of) i used to live in perth was alot better there.


i was reading the police power's ACT today they can confiscate your car if you have previously commited a Road trasport breach and been charged twice within a certaint time period.

in other words if you have been charged and paid ur fines or what ever after a few weeks they still have the right to impound ur car 48 hrs,1 month or permantly

Pretty lame.

Only way you can get it impounded here is hoonlaws or driving without a license.

Seeing you guys have 1 **** Governor general or something that's the stop to implementing the equivalent of an "M" rating, when the other 5 I think agree on adjusting the ratings system, it's not your government, it's 1 person that's basically Cock-blocking you from all the best games.

I read an article recently somewhere that explains this, but I basically summed it up in 1 run-on sentence.

Hey, and here it is:

1 person that can only be voted in or out by a few thousand ppl yet has the power to screw over so many ppl all over the country

1 person that is forcing his views onto everybody, he is also apart of a group called Family First who love to force there beliefs onto everybody, atm there also trying to have R18+ moves being banned from being on display in shops to protect the children

ppl can believe in what ever they want but can piss off when they try to force there

That reminds me of the Mortal Kombat death moves, back in my Amiga days.
They also used the word 'FATALITY' which is now a brand of PC stuff.

Damn, when will they realise that the kids are one day, going to find out about sex, violence, drugs.. whatever. They won't be able to hide them in cotton-wool forever.


It's like that story a while ago, about that sweet wrapper, that was "sexually explicit" ... It was a lemon and a lime!!


Seriously!

I've seen plenty of violent films and games, but I've never felt the need to murder someone or take drugs, is there actually any concrete scientific link between the two?

In the good old days every child would have common sense hammered into them by their parents, things like 'hitting people is bad', now governments seem to think its up to them to discipline children.

He's also seen lots of porn but never had proper sex with girls.
