Enjoy. Another piece of socio-political psychological manipulation by the Australian government. Maybe they just don’t like a game coming out that implicates the governments in releasing deadly viruses upon the population of the world because it bears too much resemblance to their current biological and sociological tests they are conducting RIGHT NOW with their so called “swine flu” hahahahha

Seriously now, if we want to do something about this, we can put together or find and sign up with a petition about this. Write our local, state, and federal governments and representatives. If we just sit back and don’t do anything about this, of course they wont bother with a compromise on either side. Maybe this way, we could atleast get the game to the shelves here in even a more censored form, better then nothing right?

Even more seriously, it is just a game, but this is about them taking away your right to chose what you deem to be appropriate, because “they” have deemed you to be to irresponsible, because somebody else has done something unappropriate, and now you and everybody else is paying the price for that, being treated like a criminal, where you know you are not. =)

Wow, that's bullshit!

Taking a game from Aussie is like taking a game from NZ.

Who’s going to host our servers!? New Zealand!?

To be honest I wasn’t keen on getting L4D2, but I am still shocked to see this. I know how disappointed many people will be.

PROTEST

i think we should protest to the government get as many signitures as we can and tell dem to f off
and then we could be the main culpruits for getting it back putting a good gaming name on ipx good idea ?
