R18+ rating for video games denied in Australia

"No R18 Rating for Video Games Yet. Here's What the Key Players Had to Say..." News.com.au. 13 Dec. 2010.

Australia had a meeting on 10th of December to discuss the video game rating of R15+ to be raised to R18+, which is the equivalent of the M for Mature(17+) rating here in America. It did not pass. The R15+ rating in Australia restricts and tones down games to be more suitable. Video games like Left 4 Dead 2 were banned at one point from the country, but were edited to meet the R15+ rating.
