why cant they just hold a vote like they do for everything else.
and seriously when i was 15 i was NEVER asked for id EVER.
the only time i get asked for id is when i go to clubs or the casino, i realy dont understand his logic he does not want those types of games in the hands of kids so the solution is to slap them with a MA rating like fear 2 or fallout 3.
with a R18 rating they would have to be alot stricter because i have never been asked for ID when buying a MA game or movie, and neither has my cuz who turned 16 yesterday

Hopefully we’ll have some news on that soon, but I’m not holding my breath for change – so long as he is in the position he is, nothing will change. He can use his veto on and off as he chooses, and in doing so, basically stall any progress on the situation.

There is no news of the proposed public discussion on the matter, as that to has basically been quelled and pushed under the carpet (due to our current economical climate) Which seems to be the out for almost everything of late.

We will be approaching the industry leader soon for an interview to see just where things stand.

There are som great ways of making more ppl actually aware of this you know. The group called GetUP now run Discussion NIghts where the various topics that affect us here in Australia can be discussed with others, where they can be made aware of just how various legislations are changing how we can live and behave here in Australia. Perhaps some gamers might like to hold (Host) and open evening to make parents and others aware that while games are mature in nature these days, the government does little to stop what is normally an 18yr old game, ending up in the hands of their 15yr old legally, and in the hands of younger ones simply out of not being informed correctly.

We’ll have more info on that soon.
