EB Games appears to have joined forces with the Grow Up Australia campaign and is promoting their petition to the Australian government to have a classification for games that matches the one we have for movies. The notable omission from our current game classification system is R18+.
Instead these games get an RC rating: Refused Classification. And since the government seems to be on the war path against Refused Classification material — the proposed mandatory web filter will prohibit RC material — it’s important to get an R18+ rating. And since the average age of Australian gamers is 30, it’s not like the children will suffer.
