If you guys are like me, then you simply can not get enough of violence & gore in video games 
Well this is a really neato sign for us "adult" gamers, which i assume is all of us 
Looks like things might be starting to change.

but it kinda sucks here since my dad made me put my real age in the PSN so i can't play resistance online 
(but i can play on my big bro's user, MUA HA HA HA!)

well i'm only 13 but i'm with you as far as blood and gore. I have F.E.A.R. and thats pretty bad. **** scary but it only says M15+. once i looked inside it, there was a big 18+ thing so I'm not sure. It has alot of supernatural suspense in it aswell. Great game. Now back on topic...

its a shame sony / nintendo do not allow R rated games on their consoles....and that's worldwide too, hence why manhunt2 won't see the light of day without it being censored.

I think we will get 18+ games, i mean the AO rating is VERY rare, Manhunt must have been sadistic as all hell to get that rating. unless some small changes are made, the world might not ever see Manhunt 2 
I'm just happy an R18 classification may finally be introduced

Haha yeah i really really really doubt nintendo will ever have 18+ games but i can see that there's a chance for sony! Either way if an 18+ rating does come out i hope game developers take advantage of it properly, as it'd be a shame to see a bunch of crap games filled with nudity and pointless gameplay! If you wanna see somthing pointless with heaps of nudity watch the world movies channel hahaha

well i guess the keyword is 'currently' not allowing R18+ games - im not saying it wont happen in the near future. 20 years ago, people would have a heart attack if they knew what kids watch on tv now-a-days lol. i doubt nintendo will allow it (although the regginator says they want more mature games), but sony...i can see changing their view on this. what about all of us that want some gore! hell yeah, i know i do. and good ol M$... they just don't give a sh!t LOL.

"THE controversial R18+ classification for games is still opposed by at least one state attorney-general, a spokesperson has confirmed."
not looking good but there aint many these games anyway, not gonna matter too much

I don't think an R18+ rating would matter much either. After all we can just import.
