    the only reason L4D2 is so heavily cut is because they just gave us the German edit, instead of editing specifically for Aus. All shooters, and violent games in general are heavily edited for Germany.

    Aaah ok. Poor Germans.
    I also understand that applying to have something viewed for classification is fairly pricey, so i thought maybe the didn't want have to apply a third time.

    Just wondering if anyone has tried to submit their views on the R18+ rating for games?

    I tried the given email address from the government website (classificationreview@ag.gov.au), but it bounced back!

    I just sent it again, hope it goes through.

    They're probably flooded with emails and also extremely cautious after the hacking incident

    Everytime I have to deal with anything to do with the Government I need to fax things.

    It really shows how on top of the technological game they are.
