Aliens vs. Predator banned in Australia

I was going through the news and found this interesting quote from game developer Rebellion, and to be perfectly honest, I agree. I’m a gamer and it bothers me that we have no R rating for games in Australia. I am also a father of 2, and both my wife an I exercise our rights as parents to monitor what our children watch and what games they play.

The battle in Australia over an R rating has been going on for years and the SA Attorney General is the only hold out on it, but we are also the country that wants to censor the net, so I guess the politian’s know best right?

While this game wasnt one I was going to play, thats not the point, the point is that for being a 1st world country, we seem to be looking more and more backwards in regards to technology. The people in power dont seem to think that the internet is important and that video games are just for kids. Give me a break!!
