This morning Seamus appeared on Sunrise to discuss the R18+ rating in the wake of Brendan O’ Connor’s statement yesterday that the Federal Government are in support of an adult rating for video games.
Seamus and Kochie went over a handful of points – debunking the ‘floodgates’ argument, and going into how games themselves are actually classified.
There has been a large amount of R18+ stories in mainstream news as of late, and a sea change in how the R18+ debate is being reported. We see this as a hugely positive sign – this issue is now in the public consciousness – it matters, and it is now impossible for decision makers to ignore. Now it’s up to the Attorneys-General to do the right thing and approve an R18+ rating for video games in Australia.
