Silent Hill Homecoming Banned in Kangaroo-land

September 27th, 2008

PSW103.featsilent.art3--screenshot_viewer_mediumAustralia is at top when it comes to video game censorship. Keeping that trend up, The Age of Melbourne, Australia, reports that Silent Hill: Homecoming, the upcoming entry in the horror franchise, has been refused classification by Australia’s Office of Film and Literature Classification, meaning that the game won’t be available for sale unless it is changed from its current form.

This is the fourth game to be banned this year, including, most recently, Fallout 3, which got banned due to drug use within the game world.

Homecoming is set to head to stores in North America this month, with an European release in November. It may be released in Australia following needed changes.
