I am an adult, I work for a living - Managing a police operation, I pay taxes, don't have a criminal record and feel tht I have earned the right to play such games as Left 4 Dead 2 - Non watered down in what is meant to be a free country!

Atkinson? - F**K OFF & RETIRE! All you are doing is forcing people to by overseas versions or illegally downloading crack versions.

People can get the content if they want it, why not make it valid business AND allow there to be a more informed customer?

If people want these games, they will buy them from overseas if they can't get them here.
Having this rating means less money leaving Australia and more money in our own local economies.
Also, I work in EB Games, most of our customers ARE 18 or older. The average age of an Australian gamer is around 25-30. The Government needs to stop treating our society like we are all children

I'm sorry Michael Atkinson your a dick, the world isn't cute and cuddly and these a gmes are not for kids. we as adults have a right to play what games we want just like we can watch the movies we want whats the difference?

Movies have an R-Rating. Video games should too. Let's try not lag behind the rest of the developed world, at least on one issue.

As an adult who enjoys video games, I think the problem comes back to parents not doing enough to ensure that 'some' games are not suitable (or meant) for kids - the same with TV and movies.

If Michael Atkinson can't see this, then maybe he should be censored from office, as his stunted views are not in line with his fellow constituents.
