Well, the Classification Board has made some changes, thank god. It's still not all wine and roses though. Click here to see what they are! It's better written than my last blog anyway.
So, if Autralia is the new China... when did you become communist?
We have a new Prime Minister as of tonight... Ironically everyone used to joke about how close he is with the Chinese. It could happen lol.
Are you going to write a blog about State Of Decay being disallowed by censors as well?
Wait.. State of Decay is disallowed? First I've heard of this.
Yeah, it's on the GameDebate.com front page. You must have missed it.
Just wrote up a quick news article for plus10damage about it. Waiting for the editor to get to it. However, I do think these games are being banned because it's election time, and the fuckers have nothing else to bloody cry foul about.
Other than Australians saying that their the 53rd state of Israel, not really much to complain about in regards to Australia and their standards of living. Video games are all that's left. Seems like a stable nation since I never hear much about trouble in Australia here in Canada.
Yeah I know. I live in one of the best countries in the world, and I'm complaining about video games I can't play? It is pretty ridiculous. However, I'm more upset that our government is censoring entertainment and denying free thinking adults the right to choose what they deem acceptable for themselves as entertainment.
Children's interests...despite these children knowing everything about our XXX world already. I'll give your government credit; they walk the walk. You'll never see the U.S. government regulate games. It's all talk.
Yeah, but the whole point of this 18+ law was to make it illegal for children to purchase these games. I mean, they'll still get them, but they'll also still get alcohol and knives.
Obviously, your politicos are getting in the way of the adults and their rights. Maybe after the election they will stop with the shenanigans.
Kids always find workarounds. Politicos always underestimate the kids. What they want, they get. Australia has the right idea, just terrible execution. Kids should not be allowed to play M-rated games but adults shouldn't be barred from it, either.
I love Aus but this is the big red mark against the place. Aka, great health care, great education,nice people, but Jesus Christ mates, there are worst things happening in the world than "Videogames". Not only that I've seen some rather disturbing films from Aus lately (Wasted on the young is a good flick but very dark.) so it's weird they're out in force to regulate games but let the film industry pretty much do as it pleases.
Yeah. I'm more annoyed that we're essentially censoring entertainment and denying freedom of speech. It's fucking retarded.
Well,considering Mortal Kombat got a pass, SaintsRow 4 is just more of the same lewd,graphic, and violent juvenile toilet humor. Not worse than what anyone would see in a Kevin Smith or parody satire movie.
Saints Row is no worse than South Park. Plain and simple. It's ridiculous.
Fight it,Blake. Hopefully someone is already organizing a protest or a petition. For once I wish people in seats of power would focus on more pressing problems. They do stuff like this as social posturing but in the end these "pseudo crusades" have no positive effects what so ever.
Well, looks like the Land Down Under isn't as great as Men at Work made it to be.
Lol. I hate that song so much.
Can see why (even if I like the song)
