A few months ago, I posted a cblog about how I doubted that
Dead Rising 2 was ever going to get released in AustraliaWell, incredibly Games On.net are reporting that Dead Rising 2 will be released in Australia, uncut with an MA15+ rating, which is the maximum rating possible for a videogame. Huh! If you want anymore proof about why the OFLC system is broken, then look no further.
After Left 4 Dead 2’s initially refusing of classification, then it’s appeal after the game’s violence was almost completely neutered, I feared that a game in which you could destroy zombies with gory, over-the-top methods would not pass classification.
"TAKE THAT, RATINGS BOARD!!"
I appear to have been wrong (I was wrong about Left 4 Dead 2 being announced at E3 2009, so shows what I know, right?); Dead Rising 2, a game where you can kill zombies with dildos, will be released in September, uncut and unchanged.
What bizarre and welcome news.
