Fallout 3 Banned In Australia

The Australian Office of Film and Literature Classification (OFLC) refused to grant Fallout 3 an age rating, effectively banning the anticipated RPG from release in the little continent.

The classification board didn't reveal the reason behind its decision, but their published rules state that titles that "depict, express or otherwise deal with matters of sex, drug misuse or addiction, crime, cruelty, violence or revolting or abhorrent phenomena in such a way that they offend against the standards of morality, decency and propriety generally accepted by reasonable adults" will be refused classification.
