Genital Jousting. It's this week's weirdest game by far. And while it might look like a (literal) blast to play, it's not available to Australians. And there's a good reason why.

February saw the first of the year's major AAA titles land -- or at least the ones that were delayed from 2014 -- but March was when gamers truly got to get excited. Sony got some more exclusives. Indie darlings dropped their long-awaited sequels. Some long-awaited Kickstarter projects were finally released to the public, and there was even a new Mario Party to crow about.

Gaming isn't just about the story, the gameplay or the visuals -- it's about the soundtracks too.

If someone asked you to dial a random phone number, what are you gonna do? Not call it and find out what's on the other end? That's doubly true if it's from the creators of Hotline Miami.

In an email screencapped by a reddit user, Jonatan Söderströmm co-creator of Hotline Miami, has told Australians that if they want to play the recently banned Hotline Miami 2 they should "just pirate it".

The developer and publisher of Hotline Miami 2 have responded to news of the hyper-violent action game being refused classification in Australia, which effectively bans it. Kotaku Australia learnt a scene implying sexual assault against a female character prompted the decision. The people behind Hotline Miami 2, however, believe the ratings board "incorrectly portrays" this.

We've just received a copy of the Hotline Miami classification report. According to the report the game was refused classification as a result of implied, visually depicted sexual violence featured in the game.
