2053 AnonymousWe need an R(18+) Games Rating for Aussies! Why is it limited to only movies and not allowed for games?
2054 Andrew WhyteIt is ridiculous that adults are prevented from legally purchasing games in Australia with adult content. Video games are a form of entertainment that adults enjoy, just like movies and television. They should be rated in the same manner as all other media.
2055 JoeIf we can have 18+ movies, we can have 18+ games.

2059 AnonymousComputer games these days are literally interactive movies. If movies can have a R18+ classification then why not computer games? It seems a bit harsh that we as adults are being told what we can or cannot view / play. We should be allowed to have the freedom of choice. The argument that kids or people under 18 may be exposed to graphic content is not a strong enough argument. You may as well ban alcohol, cigarettes and R18+ movies if this is the primary reason for not introducing the R18+ classification for computer games.

2066 Scott Wiggers de Vries-ParryThere is no reason we should not have an R18 rating for games. We have it for movies so we should have it for games.

2076 Scott Tylerits about time that the Australian government realises that gamers deserve a fair go
2077 Max WeissWhy cant we have one? just about evey other country has one. This way we can still have those more violent games

2079 Anonymousi am a 18 year old that feels australia is still in the past we have all grown older and wiser and the games that we are not allowed to play are just that games they let us feel like were in another world or just to have fun please we need a R18 rating for games
2080 DarcyThis will be the best thing to ever happen to the Australian gaming industry, ALLOW A R(18+) RATING !
2081 Murray
2082 Lloyd JenkinsIt is unbelievable that games may be banned based on their content in Australia. When much more graphic images are portrayed on TV and in the movies. This turns computer users to piracy to play games. Its by far time for reform on the matter.
2083 Scott Hubbard
2084 Jeremy SwetmanVery simple - most media has a R18+, why not games????

2089 Lance Wormingtonthis is the best thing to happen to the gaming world. yay, less banning of games
2090 Cory Fayersthis is the best thing to happen to the gaming world. yay. less banning games
2091 AnonymousThe lack of an R18+ rating in Australia simply means that games that should be rated R, are given a few minor tweaks and then squeezed in to the MA15+ rating which 15 year olds can then freely purchase.
2092 gregthis needs to be done in order to make classifacations to be more accurate instead of a game scraping into ma15 it can be properly rated as r18 to help parents know with out knowing the games whether it is suitable or not
2093 Craig SelvageGame consoles is my business and I have 4 boys. There needs to be some responsibility and restrictions placed on the games manufacturers instead of leaving it to parents to "vet" every single piece of media that enters the home.

2099 Jai AspinallThe facts say it all.. Most gamers are over 18 so R18+ games should be allowed in Australia
