Unfortunately, this guy actually comes from the "left" side of politics and the alternative "right" appear less likely to change the law. Stranger things have happened in politics though. I feel like, like,...LOIC'in him or something futile. Would make me feel better as I got dragged away by the interwebz police I suppose.

not surprised, in Australia it is illegal to even own a slingshot, so AVP needs to be banned

Mussels · Dec 5, 2009

the whole reason for the ban, is that this one moron doesnt want children getting hands on these games.

Thing is, if they made an 18+ rating... children couldn't buy the games, and therefore games that get pushed down to 15+ would just go the 18+ and be unavailable.

His attitude is blocking some games, but making others more available to younger audiences.

whats stupid is they allow movies through, with 18+ ratings. its no different.

Oh and they dont rate games for mobile platforms/downloadable games - so the iphone could have violent games about rape and murder and it'd be OK.

lol and that gamer was ME

Yeah I know its pathetic hey, they seriously have to wake the fuk up and rethink this R18+ rating system, douche bags!

Mussels · Dec 5, 2009

if they ban the game, i'll resort to ebay, proxy/download EU version, and if that fails - pirate it.

I'd prefer legit for a game like this, but its kinda hard when they treat me like a 15 year old.

Wow, Australia appears to suck as far as some of their regulations go. Glad to be in the USA lol.

this shouldnt even be news anymore.. if a game has a gun, fists, knives, anything that can cause harm to anything then it'll be banned in Australia

<<Onafets>> · Dec 5, 2009

I don't wanna be banned for this buuuuuut...
FUC# YOU GOVERNMENT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Mussels · Dec 5, 2009

the stupid part is that AVP truly has no excuse to be banned.

its not like you're murdering humans for the hell of it, or even taking on "people infected with a rabies like virus" - you're either a human killing hostile aliens, or an alien killing hostile humans.

How many 15 year old kids are gunna go through a high school, lay eggs in students throats and spawn an alien hive after playing this game? seriously?

Start an internet campaign of adult gamers in Australia against these bannings. Ban the politicians responsible for telling you what you cannot do. Picket in front of government buildings, have sing-songs, beat drums, chant catchy slogans and with enough people, others people may or may not notice.

Unfortuently it wouldnt make a ratsass of difference to Atkinson as he has made his mind up on this one.

Lionheart · Dec 5, 2009
