yeah the ACL is against it yet the Catholic Archbishop (one of the most old school strict religions) is supporting R18+ rating to (and I quote) “help provide better guidance for parents” so if one fairly hardline religion recognises the validity of having an R18+ rating how can these other whackos be against it ?
Im at work atm, and im just sitting at this computer waiting on this answer! Wow im freaking out here, we need to win this!!!!
Oh my, oh my, oh my, the nerves are getting to me!
How am I supposed to concentrate on my work today?
If this rating doesn’t go through, the internet will be brought to its knees by the overuse of Picard facepalms.

Hopefully the combined force of all our simulataneous facepalms will dislodge Australia from the Earth’s crust and we can float towards a country with an R Rating.
Hmm, + 1 hr, still no news?
Get ready to DDOS someone since that seems to be all the rage nowadays. (I kid, don’t assasinate me)
I’m getting worried this is taking so long. After all the public consultation, petitions, opinion polls, surveys etc this should be the easiest decision they’ll make all day. I hope the fact it’s dragging on so long is because of all the different people they’ve got going in there to have their say rather than because there’s one particular Attorney General holding out against logic and public opinion.
THIS IS TAKING TOO LONG
cmon ie got work at 12:30 and i want to see how this plays out
no decision yet?
uh-o

It is the government afterall, they are never quick to do anything, except avoiding doing anything.

I think the Attorney General’s website is in meltdown.
All those eager gamers wanting the results 😉
Kotaku has NO part in things getting to the stage they have.
I say that as someone who knows.

I bet you do.

I completely trust you, random internet commentator guy.

So getting on prime time TV and arguing for an R18+ Classification as well as promoting writing to politicians and signing petitions has had no effect.
None at all.
Wow.
Why don’t we all just roll over and die then? I mean really whats the point?
If this does pass, I wonder what will be the first game released as R18? Does anyone plan to pick it up no matter what as a part of Australian gaming history?
-
Duke Nukem Forever possiby, be about right since some think that there will be content cut for Australian release under the current classification system.

Duke Nukem Forever getting an R rating will be the most ironic thing the world has ever seen

C’mon guys it’s an Aussie Govt. Departmental thing,..they probably got in there, heard one speaker.
Then had to call in a consultant group to figure what they were going to have for lunch and if it adheres to Aust Standards and if it was pc enough for all the subgroups represented. Then they take an hour and a half for lunch.
We should know an outcome @ around 3.30-4.00pm i’d say because that’s knock off time for most public servants.

Worst thing is, I can’t even laugh about that in this case, it just makes me angry >.<
I am so afraid, and so hopeful. Please government, do something right! Give us a little bit of confidence.
