For anyone hoping that the Standing Committee of Attorneys-Generals would be reviewing the need for an R18+ games classification this month, prepare for disappointment – David over at Kotaku brings us word that the discussion has been delayed yet again.
Apparently the latest delay is due to the upcoming Federal election, which has seen the July SCAG meeting cancelled. The next meeting is set for November 4-5 in Canberra, which means it’s unlikely we’ll have a logical rating system for games this year. It also raises doubts that the review of the RC category will be completed by the middle of next year in time for filter legislation to be introduced.
