Someone is finally speaking some sense. Following the Australian Classification Board's banning of Outlast II, Senator David Leyonhjelm blasted the Australian Senate regarding video game censorship. Leyonhjelm argues the laws related to games are made and enforced by people who know nothing about them.
Leyonhjelm reveals politicians and public officials are blocked from sites like IGN and PC Gamer "because we might stumble across an image of something somebody disapproves of from a medium we don't understand." Citing a survey that states the average gamer is 33 and 68% of Australians play video games regularly, he reasons "how is it that adults are not trusted to make choices about video games, and yet they are allowed to vote?"
