    It's going to be hard to improve the graphics for GOW2 cuz it's already great to begin with. Lighting has improve since the last game giving a great look, overall can't wait til it comes out!

    wow fallout3 and silenthill5 banned in the AU that sucks hard for them. i find it strange that they ban all these gory games. are hey as harsh with films like say the bit in dark knight where the joker puts the pencil in the guys head or something like pans labyrinth with its freaky ass creatures?

    diamond2d | My god you mean GoW2 slipped through the censorship. I'll write them a note and let them know. Suggest you stick to playing Viva Pinata.

    AU sensorship SUCKS! I'd hate live in Australlia, I'm surprised GoW2 hasn't been banned yet lol

    I agree with biggest_loser, about having a hard time hearing the girl speak. But no big deal.

    Awesome show! The part with Gears of War 2 made me smile a lot, it really looks promising and I'm pretty sure that it will be the best game this year.

    As the average age of gamers rises (current Aussie average is 28 yo according a university study and my current age coincidentally) more and more games will be geared toward adult audiences thus containing more and more adult content. The current average of 2-3 games getting banned a year is just the tip of the iceberg, it is only going to get worse! >=(

    In the coming years - if our classification laws don't catch up with the times - I wouldn't be surprised if 10-15 games get banned a year.

    Oh well, what do I care I import most games anyway. I do prefer localised games but if it's been altered due to our CRAPPYfication Board like Fallout 3, GTA4, Silent Hill Homecoming etc or outright banned then I import. We're gamers and we're bloody resourceful when it comes to getting the best possible gaming experiences so the CB can go and get fu-llagu-cked! =P

    Some kewl interviews there guys Mirrors Edge looks like it might be something special. lol mastiffchild it would seem that way huh. It is a bit sad the Censorship Board has so little faith in the Adults if our Way Cool Country

    FPA (First Person Action) in my opinion is what mirrors edge is.

    Posted Oct 2, 2008 3:19 am PT

    What's with this Australian censor attitude? I pity any of you guys living down there as it really looks like they haven't got the certificate/rating system sorted for mature games at all with the rate things are getting banned. Isn't there just an 18+ or Mature rating in Aus? Or, as a former penal colony, are the censors scared the sight of blood will turn the country into a host of ravening beasts hungry for more of the red stuff in real life that decimate any living thing they come across in order to sate their reawakened carnal bloodlust?

    poor aussies, this seems to be happening alot, games not getting classification, this is the country that produces home and away and neighbours, id rather have a drill im my eye than watch that rubbish.
