Of course if Aussies want violence and bloodspray..there are plenty of websites out there..youtube being one of them where you can find violent content.

Far out they need to make the bloody R18+ and X or w/e for video games its just stupid we can have R18+ and X movies but not games its just odd.

...deemed the violent content "high in impact" and "unsuitable for a minor to play," citing as examples a nail gun that can be used to pin bad guys to walls, after which they will fall to the ground "in a bloody mass," and a sniper rifle that will "tear bodies apart at close range."

Unsuitable for minors to play? Well, it wouldn't be unsuitable if it had an R18+ rating!

*sigh*

Horray for prevailing stupidity within the government.
