A BIG SHOUT OUT TO THE AUSTRALIAN GOVERNMENT

And that shout is “Fuck you, you backwards ignorant unthinking MORONS.”

In case you don’t know what I’m talking about, I’ll put it into simple words for you.

Australian retailers will no longer be allowed to sell unrated online games. If they try, it can mean a hefty fine or prison sentence. This basically means that you can no longer sell online only games in Australia, such as any MMO ever. And of course, the very nature of these games means that companies cannot apply for a classification for their games and keep selling them, because we all know that it is impossible to rate the actions of others online.

Isn’t it enough that Australians have to wait 6 months longer than everybody else for games and most of them are banned anyway, without the government preventing them from buying WoW expansions?

Fuck the Australian Classification Board. Fuck John Hatzistergo. And fuck the Government for having a government regulated system in any fucking case, and for pulling this out of thin air without warning.

Full story here.

  1. I’m almost certain it won’t stick.

    Then again why won’t ratings boards rate the game and just leave a disclaimer about other people in? I never understood tbh
