With Great Power...

There is no R18+ rating for video games in Australia. A fact that most gamers are aware of, most gamers want to correct, and yet the Australian government still won't bring the topic to light. People who oppose an R rating do so on the grounds that it opens up our industry for adult content which they believe can't currently come into games, However i find this trail of thought typically comes from those who most rely on the ratings system... The parents who allow their children to play games purely based upon the rating on the front cover and with no knowledge of the games actual content. Thus, i come to the actual point of this post, i found a great article by a mother who learned the hard way that ratings aren't always what they seem and has taken the responsibility of herself being the censor for her family.
