My Big Fat Opinion

I just saw a news blurb that Atari cut content out of Silent Hill Homecoming to get it approved for release in Australia. I'm in no mood to go on about how Australia's highest age rating (15+ years) should be higher or how games cost too much to make if you can't afford the financial risk to take a stand and say 'No' to changing your game when someone tries to censor it (and don't think for one second it isn't censorship just because the ratings board doesn't specifically tell you
how to change your game). I am in Idealist mode right now and my viewpoint is very simple: Don't you EVER fucking tell me to change what's in a game I just spent years of my life developing.
