EB Games Australia testing the ratings waters (PLEASE READ!)
DtoidAustralia | 3:57 AM on 01.18.2010 11 comments




Hello my little koala bears,
If you have been to the EB Games website in the last few days then you may have noticed a little poll on the side asking what you think about the R 18+ ratings or lack there of. Here's our chance to make ourselves heard by a massive company who has the ability(aka money) to make a difference!
Please vote! No matter where you are from, no matter how many times! Vote as much as you can!

In case you haven't heard, we have no rating higher than MA15+ which means many games are censored or banned when released in Australia. Yes, we were the ones that helped to f*ck up Fallout 3 for the world! We desperately need a higher restriction in Australia for soooooo many reasons and let's take this opportunity to show that we not only want but need this in our sunburnt country!

So......

VOTE!!!!



Is this post awesome? Vote it up!

I voted and I'm not even Australian, I just feel sorry for you guys.

On the other hand wtf:

No, I like the current system 16% (2,532 votes)

I want to know who these 2532 people who voted no for this are. I assume angry politicians and the Australian equivalent of Soccer Mom's.

I voted, but it's doubtful they'll listen. For one, anyone can vote, not just people living in Australia. And they haven't listened before, so why would they listen now?

Still, I hope you guys get an 18 or older rating so that you can get games uncensored.

I noticed this earlier on and I definitely voted. I'm also handing out some R18+ consultation papers at work for some of the guys to fill in too.
