do you think the games industry is seen as a soft touch here? for example, why ban this and not 'hostel 2'? is the machinery of the film industry more fearful to the censors?

otoh the games industry now makes more dosh than hollywood so if this is the case maybe it won't last.

there again, perhaps the participatory nature of games is felt to be 'worse'. the other thing is Al, your a mature adult, not sure i'd want a 12 yo playing manhunt 2 repeatedly.
