i dont know if thats going to stop us from buying games off ebay though.
GOW3 will definetly get banned, i just hope this internet filter is not up by then, if i miss out on GOW3 im going to loose it.

On top of that many import the game anyway (without IDs).

Having said that, there is talk of the government’s proposed internet filter system preventing us from visiting sites that contain banned games anywhere…

That’s a bit draconian…

i dont understand how someone could be such a hypocrite.
he says he does not want a R18+ because than kids could access the games, but would rather slap on a MA15+ rating, which is much lighter.
what i mean by that is retailers are much lighter towards MA than they are to R.
ive never in my life been asked for ID for a MA product.
but every single time i buy a R product im asked for ID and im 22.
fear 2 is better off with a MA rating than a R 18+ rating??????
im lost in this guys logic if it can be called that
