As you all have read the Australian govt. is considering R ratings for games, the Sydney morning herald got a quote from these freedom limiting, hypocritical moralistic arseholes, trying to legislate their own beliefs, laced with misinformation of course...

But i guess you cant expect much else from a group that supports state censorship of the internets (pr0n crackdown), isnt pro-choice, pro-gay marriage, wants to scare the public about cloning, and has an interview with Dave Grossman...

[QUOTE]But Angela Conway, spokeswoman for the Australian Family Association, said even M-rated games currently on the market had "concerning" levels of violent and sexual content.

"We would be opposed to the adoption of an R-rated category because we believe that research is pointing to the fact that these games actually do impact behaviour and psychology more easily than a film," she said.

"Our big concern is that there is a continual [positive] reinforcement for players actually acting out violent and sexual impulses ... this sort of technology has actually been used to desensitise soldiers ... and retrain them and break down their defences against killing."[/QUOTE]
