Sega may not have bothered to submit upcoming shooter Aliens Vs Predator for classification in Germany. But they did in Australia. And we’ve just heard this morning that those efforts appear in vain.
A statement from Sega reads:
“SEGA Australia can today confirm that the initial submission of Aliens vs Predator has been Refused Classification by the Classification Operations Board of Australia. We will continue to investigate all options available to us, including the possibility of appeal.”
We have contacted the Classification Board to obtain their report and will update you when we know more. Hint: it might have something to do with what happens next in the screenshot above.

If that’s not proof gamers are of all ages I don’t know what is. That’s almost enough for me to play a CoD game MP.
Not impressed with the choice, but until the rating exists what else can they do? As for the content being banned, a part of me says blame Howard for what he did to the country, and the other part is somewhat miffed at the fact American neo-con views have infiltrated Australia.
Time to fight back, who’s for a proper footie game?
