Setback for adults-only games

Interesting.

"It seems inconsistent that in Australia adults are allowed to view 'adult only' films but not computer games with an equivalent high-level content.

"With the increasing convergence between films and games, the different approach to classification principles is difficult to sustain ... Australia is out of step with the rest of the developed world on this issue."

Australia is the only developed country without an R18+ games classification, meaning any titles that exceed MA15+ standards, such as those with "strong impact" violence or sexual content, are effectively banned by the Classification Board.

How meny times do I have to tell you that Australia is just not as good as anywhere else (Well, it's better then New Zealand, the pacific island countries, most of Africa...).
