AVP developer won’t “sanitize” game for Australia
Yesterday we got word that the Classification Operations Board of Australia refused to let Sega‘s Aliens vs. Predator hit store shelves down under. We then learned that they were looking at way to get around this banning but it seems that the game’s developer, Rebellion, is none too pleased with the banning.
In fact, they have absolutely no intentions to clean the game of its content for an Australian release with their explanation below:
“The content of AVP is based on some of the most innovative and iconic horror movies, and as such we wanted to create a title that was true to the source material. It is for adults, and it is bloody and frightening, that was our intent. We will not be releasing a sanitized or cut down version for territories where adults are not considered by their governments to be able to make their own entertainment choices.”
So Australian gamers, unless Sega successfully appeals the original banning, chances are you won’t get a chance to play the game.
