While Australia has a long history of video game development, as a nation we're probably more famous for the games we have banned. So with a few games this year being refused classification, let's look back at some of the other titles that have fallen afoul of our censors.

The PlayStation is having a winter sale: here's some of the best bargains.

Finally: Far Cry 5 finally drops this week. Full of dogs that you can heal with belly rubs and quests about getting cows to mount each other, Ubisoft's open-world franchise takes to the plains of Montana.

Within a few days, footage of streamer JurassicJunkieLive screaming in terror as his toddler daughter, Jessica, pops up behind him has become the most viewed clip on Twitch of all time.

Tumbleseed was a difficult, tricky game. Outlast 2 was an uphill march through dangerous enemies. Recently, both have gotten easier thanks to patches and tweaks. Many games have had their difficulty reduced after release. While this makes them accessible to more players, it also raises questions.

As regulars are aware, Outlast 2 will officially go on sale in Australia with an R18+ rating after going through a couple of rounds with the Classification Board. The game was initially banned for implicit sexual violence that was showcased in an alpha video of the game that was incorrectly sent to the board.

The Board quoted one scene in particular when Outlast 2 was initially banned. Question is, what changed in the final version of the game?

In the first statement since the re-rating of Outlast 2 by the classification board, the game's publisher has provided some information potentially explaining why the game was originally banned.

Despite earlier reports, the Classification Board has confirmed that a modified version of Outlast 2 was submitted for review, rather than the original version of the game.

After initially being refused classification, Outlast 2 will be released in Australia next month with an R18+ rating.

If you were angry about the Classification Board's recent ban of Outlast 2, don't worry: you've got some support in Canberra.

Kotaku Australia has learned that Outlast 2 has been refused classification in Australia, predominately for the depiction of implied sexual violence.

Scheduled for release on April 25, Outlast 2 will no longer be released in Australia after it was refused classification.

Outlast 2 developer Red Barrels released a demo for their upcoming horror game earlier this week on Xbox One, Playstation 4 and PC. I sat down for a late night playthrough to see if the demo could bring the scares. It does.

If you were looking forward to a second round of freelance investigative journalism with a dodgy camera in a psychiatric ward, I have some bad news for you: your Outlast sequel has been delayed.

Though I didn't get a chance to play that newfangled Legend of Zelda that everyone was raving about, there was plenty to get excited about at E3.
