Silent Hill: Homecoming not rated in Australia
According to what’s been reported by XboxOZ360Gamer, the Australian classification system for multimedia products (OFLC) has refused to place Silent Hill: Homecoming inside any of the classification ratings, thus eliminating the game from the market. The Australian system, in fact, doesn’t really have an “18+” game rating, therefore the Konami title didn’t fit within any of the other categories, due to its content. As the site we mentioned before says, this solution’s becoming more and more frequent in the Australian market, which also has made very strange decisions. For example, Dark Sector was refused by the classification system due to an excessive blood display, but Ninja Gaiden 2, which doesn’t seem less violent, has received the “MA15+” rating and is free to be commercialized. The same thing happened to Brothers in Arms: Hell’s Highway, that got the same ratings, despite its violence.
