Ninemsn games writes: A game that was refused classification in Australia and banned from sale for rewarding players for using virtual drugs has been re-classified with an adults-only rating.
State Of Decay was banned last week because of its depiction of and interaction with "stimulants", or illicit drugs.
While there’s likely already a list behind closed doors, one can still speculate and offer logical suggestions for titles new and old that should find their way into the PlayStation and Switch libraries.
Some of these seem to be exclusive for lack of enthusiasm of the publisher rather than because of deals. A lot of cool indies skip ps for some reason like katana zero, el paso, elsewhere and gunbrela
They really think PlayStation fans would want to play Redfall? Pfft.
Personally nothing on that list would be any game I’d want to play.
I’d absolutely love Hellblade 2, Palworld, and Quantum Break on ps5 as I’m sure tons of others would too. There’s nothing wrong with wanting games from another console and its sad that people try to act like they aren’t interested in them.
Sunset Overdrive makes very good sense. Palworld might.
Don't know about the others. Hellblade II does make sense given the original launched on PS4 first. Quantum Break was a massive letdown for me. I absolutely hated the whole TV show thing and I don't think anyone should have to relive that on modern hardware.
The Humble Store is running a Microsoft Studios Sale with games up to 80% off all week long. Right now you can get Quantum Break for $9.99, Recore: Definitive Edition for $9.99, and State of Decay for $3.99. The sale ends in six days.

Waaaaaaaaaaaaaat? Australia has some pansies on the ratings board.
Australia treating their people like children.
Ratings board needs to learn that people can make their own decisions. They are adults, not children, so stop treating them as such.
Look at what our Aussie brethren have to deal with.
lol It got banned last week for "rewarding players for using virtual drugs." Well, guess what, the world isn't pretty and never was. They need to stop trying to baby sit grown people that already know the consequences of using drugs and other mature subjects. Are their school books filled with rainbows and unicorns? They're smart enough to understand what and when wrong is wrong, that's why there's no proof that video games make you lose self control and go insane. Hope someday Australians can get to enjoy any game they want to in the future.
Poor Australia. As stupid as things are here in the US, we sometimes have advantages over other countries.
Hope they get that settled soon.
