Fuck me, ignorant politicians nannying society once again. Good one, now we can all import it and leave the fragile Australian economy to just fall apart.

I'm confused by the article, are games that are 18+ illegal in australia?
Or do they just want to introduce a new 18+ rating?

Games are banned if they are rated 18+ either that of they're censored. Gamers want to introduce a R18+ rating so we don't play censored games or have to import ;).

Gamespot just put up video of the press announcement on Friday.
