Electronic Frontiers Australia has launched a new website, R18+ for games , as part of a campaign for the introduction of an R18+ rating for video games in Australia:
According to recent surveys, the average age of gamers in Australia is around 30 years old.
An R18+ classification would require the unanimous support of all Attorneys-General, and in the past moves to change the current classification have been blocked on the vote of a single state Attorney-General.
EFA is now sponsoring a campaign to have the R18+ classification for games introduced in Australia.
Check out the website here.
