Pretty damn good chance he’d have been carded and refused if the game was rated at 18+ but no… we can’t have that can we? Thanks for destroying society mr atkinson!Īs far as I’m aware in these situations you can’t use examples of previously classified game to support the new classification. Personally I’d have rated Gears Of War 2 at 18+ since the graphics are pretty realistic and you can chainsaw people in half but its a huge title worth a bucketload of money and so the OFLC let it slide in at an MA15+ (again possibly because of the ‘awesome decapitation’ oflc reviewers) thus letting “impressionable 15 year old Timmy ‘Psycho’ Smith” get his hands on it and thus initiating the destruction of civilisation as we know it. This single man is well aware of said power and is cynically using this to enforce his own personal beliefs on the entire country in spite of the fact that in doing so he is actively damaging the cause he supports. The 18+ rating would solve a lot of this but we have a single man with FAR too much power because of his unique position and the rules requiring a unanimous vote to add a rating. Each recommendation seems to be entirely at the whim of the individuals on the board reviewing that particular title so you have a coin flip. Thats the problem with the classification process, there’s no standardised guidelines so we can’t get uniform decisions.
#Left 4 dead bundle uncut series
The OFLC does not seem to have a set series of rules for assessing games.”
“based on all these inconsistencies in their rulings. In fact, if just one player on the server is running the Australian edition, the “riot cop” will not spawn at all. * No Riot Cop: The “riot cop” Uncommon Infected will not spawn at all. * No Burning: Infected will not catch fire from, for example, a molotov. * No Corpses: As soon as they’re dead, Infected bodies will disappear. * No Dismemberment: You cannot shoot or melee any limbs, including the head, off an Infected. * No Blood Spatter: You will not see blood spattering on the screen.
* No Gore: When you shoot an Infected to you see a small splash of blood. The aptly-named The Australian Version Thread over on the Steam community forums has an excellent summary of what’s missing from the local, censored edition of the game.
Let’s see how censored it really is and how easily you can uncensor it yourself. So they’ve had to release a censored version. Left 4 Dead 2 got refused classification in Australia.
