Australia, no Left 4 Dead 2 for you.

That’s misleading. There will be no unedited Left 4 Dead 2 for you, Australia.

Valve is planning to release a heavily edited version of the game to counter the RC rating (Refused Classification) that the Australian Government’s Classification Board unanimously passed, and they refuse to change their mind. The piles of dead bodies, depictions of decapitations and dismemberment and detailed wounds will be removed.

I feel for my fellow gamers down under, you know. There will be ways around it, frustrating and time consuming and costly ways. Would this have happened if L4D 2 was merely downloadable content instead of a separate release?

  1. Maybe they’ll change it to stuffed bunnies shooting each other with care bear stares?
