Left 4 Dead 2

YOURemgn reports:

Bad news for Australian Left 4 Dead 2 fans. The Australian Classification Review Board consisting of 3 members has not changed their minds on the RC (Refused Classification) on the game. This has been said to be the board’s final decision. The game will be released, but without all the violence. The game will not contain – depictions of decapitation, dismemberment, wound detail or piles of dead bodies lying about the environment.

The Board’s official statement:

“A three-member panel of the Classification Review Board (the Review Board) has unanimously determined that the computer game “Left 4 Dead 2? is classified RC (Refused Classification).
In the Review Board’s opinion, “Left 4 Dead 2? could not be accommodated within the MA 15+ classification. The computer game contains a level of violence which is high in impact, prolonged, repeated frequently and realistic within the context of the game.
In addition, it was the Review Board’s opinion that there was insufficient delineation between the depiction of general zombie figures and the human figures, as opposed to the clearly fictional ‘infected’ characters. This was a major consideration of the Review Board in determining the impact of this game on minors.”

Any changes to this decision sounds highly unlikely, this will really take the fun out of Left 4 Dead 2. YourEMGN will keep you updated if any changes persist.
