R18+ Update

You know the ongoing struggle between those of us with rational thinking capacities and those opposed to the R18+ rating in Australia? Well, god news! The Australian Federal Government has announced they are in full support of such a rating and there is a big meet on the coming Friday to further the battle to get said rating officially brought into our fine country.

The Feds have said, though, that they are still going to discuss it with all the groups opposed (mainly the Australian Christain Lobby, the main force behind the opposition). Lets hope all goes well and we finally get ourselves some fair classification!

Thats why i voted for julia. I heard somewhere that tony was like totally against having R18 games in australia.

Its always the religious people with issues

Haha, I agree. Its the big religious corporations and groups that have misinformed issues with everything, and while I understand not all religious people are like this, it certainly gives most others the impression that this is true.

well my mum is a full god person but she thinks there should be an R 18 rating mainly because there are 15 year olds playing games that really should be R 18.

I am guessing it is because she is informed Victor because no doubt you would have spoken to her about it. The main problem is that some people think getting an R18+ rating means that all of a sudden there will be a flood games to the market with this rating. When the actual fact is that it will mean we still get the same games but parents will be able to make better informed choices about what there children should be playing.
