Australian R18+ Video Game Rating!

It looks like Aussies will be getting an R18+ rating for video games. The Attorney Generals agreed 'in-principle' to an R18 rating being introduced for video games. NSW AG still needs to make a decision, but with or without NSW this will still most likely go ahead. This is great news!

about bloody time been waiting for this decision for 10 years being 28 there are some good games that were banned or modified to be total shit talking bout you left 4 dead luckily i bought an uncensored version from the uk and bought postal 2 hope they resubmit mk9 and other banned games because people should get a chance to play them and what if the 1 state that didn't decide comes back and says no does that mean we won't have an R 18+ rating system

@sholva81 I don't know how it works exactly but I think Brendan O’Connor said that even without NSW's agreement the other states will still be able to go ahead with it.
