                      The OFLC are a hypocritical joke down here. Sometimes they' ll let through controversial games with no questions asked. Other times they' ll chuck a hissy fit over the smallest details. 
 This wouldn' t be a problem if they just applied the R18+ rating (that already exists for ALL other media that' s put through the OFLC) to games.
 
 I don' t even care what they do anymore. If I know a game has been crippled in some way by them, I just import it from other PAL territories, or failing that, buy it on PC.

                      I dont see how a game can be considered dangerous for having nudity. it could be a fuck fest for all i care and it still wouldnt hurt.

                      Not much of a surprise to me there. 
 Seems Australia is trying to outdo their big brother America...I find it rather pathetic.

                      If anyone is Australia' s big brother, it would be the UK.

                      Yeah really, in the US no games are banned.  They are protected by the First Amendment of our government.  I hope the title was sarcasm, considering how many other games they' ve banned in Australia.
