Michael Atkinson's Successor is an "R18+ Supporter"

Yay! Now, the Swiss government is the one going anti-gamer. It seems that for every one that goes down, another one rises in its' place.

Well, if so, I hope they Looney Brigade visit Britain when Switzerland crumbles to dust.

But good on Australia; maybe the facism of the Rudd Government will soon be gubbed at the election as well. /wishful thinking

Why would you want them to visit Britain?

[sub]We have the Daily Mail to complain about games already...[/sub]

I hear the cheers but am I the only one who is keeping mind that "The more things change the more they stay the same"?

I was mesmerized by that avatar of yours and put 'they' instead of 'they don't.'

Epic win for Austrailia, you guys game in peace now!

 

[Baldry]

urrmmm B-E-A-UTIFUL. Need more be said?

 

[Fuhjem]

Seriously, I'm in Illinois and I can hear the cheers of every Australian Gamer from here.

Finally, Atkinson should have got over this ages ago. This will mean we get ZeroPunctuation reviews of mature games without prejudice.

 

[bloodmonkey]

well I'm happy and I'm on the opposite side of the planet

 

[Mr. Mike]

Aussies rejoice! The time of our salvation is at hand!

Atkinson lost the war at last!

Now they just need to clear up the skirmishes with the other parties.

 

[CloggedDonkey]

well, that's good for developers and gamers, but let's look at the other things he wants first. and secondly, don't use that picture anymore. for some reason, he seams more human now that he has stepped down so he can spend more time with his son than when he was in the public eye.

John Rau's a true hero.

maybe what's next will be China deciding to stop being so censor-happy.

 

[008Zulu_v1legacy]

What will Yahtzee do now that he can no longer rant on Atkinson?

 

[ryai458]

This is a good step for aussie gamers.

 

[Adzma]

Yay!

But why is the picture of Michael Atkinson? That kinda kills the mood...

Well if you're interested here is a picture of John Rau.

It's small I know. Seems there aren't any large scale photos of him yet.

It doesn't show up for me... but that wasn't my main point.

My main point was, "EWW MICHAEL ATKINSON IS GRINNING AT ME MAKE HIM STOP!"

EDIT: Though your willingness to go a little bit out of your way in a quest to make a random stranger on the internet feel a little happier does not go unnoticed. Cookie for you.

A statue should be erected in honour of John Rau.[HEADING=1]ALL HAIL THE RAU! ALL HAIL THE RAU! ALL HAIL TH-[/HEADING] you catch my drift.

It is interesting to see the people excited only about playing games now, while the main reason I was opposed to Michael was the censorship of a media. I know censorship is very apparent (especially in the news) and some forms are necessary (snuff videos), but a very explicit and insulting, for adults, form of censorship was horrible.
