so i'm aussie and have a few games in my library that are 'banned' and dont know whats gonna happen to em. at first it was just hard copy bans but now ol mate Abott's banning online games too. I'd like to see a whole list of the games as i have only seen the more popular games that have been banned. I'd just like to know what your opinions are and why you think they would get banned.

Pls australia.

 

Can't you just send an army of kangaroos to beat Abott's sorry ass ?

Recommend what is best, not what you preffer.

"Like" comments to show your support of them or the idea they express.

@Salty

Someone told Luke and Linus at CES 2017 to "Unban the legend known as Jerakl" and that's about all I've got going for me. (It didn't work)

You need to get a VPN like me. Seriously this government has gone to shit-and we've already seen that the politicians don't care what voters think when we had a certain prime minister get usurped-straight up the person who replaced him wasn't voted for by the people.

they most likely get ban because they think of the old classic games make you violent and none of them have any idea about video games that's why i think a lot of games get ban

Is banning just limited to games? Does it apply to other media too like movies/tv shows?

My opinion is that banning any game is beyond dumb. Ratings exist for a reason.

Even though it's been proven time and time again, that ratings don't actually work. Go play call of duty, or really ANY first person shooter with in game voice chat. Shouldn't take long for you to be cussed out by a 6 year old.

Yeah, the thing is they're banning anything that DOESN'T have a rating

Even the original Fallout has been censored.

The first one.

The really first one.

The Turn Based RPG one.

Basic guide to CPU's!

If I said I were 14, you would call me a kid. If I say 70, you’ll entitle me too old. If I say 20 you say I’m inexperienced and if I say 40 than I'm too boring.

But that's the fault of s***** parents, not the games themselves.

Not my point; my point is that the state shouldn't be doing the parents' jobs for them. If they want to be idiots, pardon my language but fuck them, don't stop others from enjoying the game because a group of idiots can't bother being a parent.

Don't ask to ask, just ask... please 🤨

The government just doesn't care however.

Then why don't they hire someone to play it and rate it by law?

That would require effort by the goverment.

Effort and goverment, doesn't go together :P

As far as big government types are concerned, it's their responsibility.

 

"it takes a village".

 

Not that I agree with it. Not at all.

I thought it was "Results" and government?

In a sense they do have SOME responsibility, but it's about warning rather than stopping people who can play it no problem.
