Completely agree. It's only the one, stubborn South Australian Attorney General that is refusing to budge on the issue isnt it? This stance can only reflect the opinions of the COAG (a group of, what, 8 people?) and is extremely outdated, because nowadays much more adults play games in general. There are definitely much more inappropriate movies and other media released in Australia, and their arguments against the R18 rating are poor.
Told my mother when i go to SA, im gonna visit their Attorney General and kick him in the sack.

And then you wonder why your murder rampage games get banned?
Mabye if you didnt spend all day solving problems with virtual machine guns you would realize violence wont solve the problem.
The world has seen enough war and bloodshed to know ramming more voilence down kids throats is not a good idea, hate breeds hate, and thats exactly what these games aim to do,
once a kids hookd on killing, there no going back, thus its best to stop it in the first place.

Oh no because we're not smart enough to understand the difference of reality and fantasy!! As we all know guns handle exactly the same in real life and in video games, watch out innocent bystanders! I have been posessed by the big bad video game devil! Kill Kill Kill..

Halo has taught me methane breathing, high pitched aliens DONT explode when lit alight, fragged or shot at.

Go real life go!

You might not, but if a mentally unstable person gets their hand on the game, you're going to regret saying that.

Not that I'm implying all mentally unstable people go on killing rampages at the slightest suggestion. Oh no. Not at all.

Actually, a mentally unstable person would go on a killing rampage without the game.
In fact, the game would serve as an outlet for all that psychotic intent.

Oh yeah, don't buy the game guys! I'm sure you don't want to play a censored version.
Download it later and come play on Garena, it needs more players yay

Hopefully if Steam users buy the censored version and the full version creeps its way in legally, they will offer a patch, or a free full version of L4D2, Its valve, they will do anything to keep the masses happy.

If you want to play it on PC then just get an American proxy/tunnel. Or you can get someone in America to gift it to you through steam. It does work :) more blood, riot cops and no disappearing dead bodies!

Everyone is forgetting Australian Dedicated Servers will be pre-set with L4D2 censored settings, not the 510 fix everyone has.
