Its a game after the Quentin Tarantino movie.

BUt seriously, you cut a guys ear off in the game and talk into it, I saw it on gamespot.com. If your comparing the two........big mistake. Surprised they haven't jumped on that game to get it sunk.

I'm just saying if they have the nerve to ban a game before they have seen it then they will go for games everyone's fussing about.Didn't you here about the crazy rumors about bully .Like rival gangs fighting in the schoolyard.

Still got my fingers crossed. Any way, people have been saying it's been rated M ?, is this true, cause if it is im screwed aye? and since they've rated it does'nt that mean we should know if its banned in Australia or not?

Yep - it's been rated M for Mature. Which basically means anyone can play it - but its recommended for 15+ audiences only. But not restricted.

And its not that Australia has a harsh stance on games or anything - its because Australia doesnt have an R rating for games. Therefore - any game that is classed as R is rejected.. thats why Reservoir Dogs was banned - it was found to be too violent for a MA rating.

I do hope Australia get's an R system in though - it will allow for games like Reservoir Dogs and Manhunt and other titles to be allowed entry (that is of cause - if no one objects and applies the pressure to have it banned).

You from Australia mate, and this guy said that, the OFLC , have been known in the past to change thrre descisions? but i doubt it.

Yep I'm from Aus.. and yeah I'm not sure about the OFLC changing decisions in the past - but it'd definately be a possibility if we did have an R rating.. cause it'd allow those games that were rejected in the past to have at least another shot at being released.
