Canada

No games have been banned in Canada. However, there has been controversy surrounding the game industry and certain games, much like the controversy in the United States. Games such as Manhunt and Soldier of Fortune have been given "Restricted" film ratings, thereby preventing them from being purchased by any person under the age of eighteen in Ontario and British Columbia respectively, and under the age of seventeen in Québec.[10][11][12][13][14] As in the United States, games receiving an "Adults Only" rating from the ESRB have been edited for re-classification.

loving douches, L4D2? God you cant play the nonviolent version, or your like, gay.

Censorship and Australia sucks. Seriously. Its of the few things I dislike about this country. Its nothing big though, just a matter of doing things I cannot discuss on the forum. Because I totally have not.

australia is like that step mom you never wanted



And this is why Aussies hate us because we're so much more cooler than them. We let our 5 year olds watch research and smoke weed. :/ (Trust, me, I've seen videos proving this)

glad im not australian.

i love our rating system (ish), its got 3, 7, 12, 15/16, and 18.
so that means HL2 has a lower rating for the UK.
but not L4D and fallout 3.
stuff.

Australia is probably a man made continent where in olden times, pussies and douchebags were sent to because they weren't worthy to live in a public society.
