An Australian Parents' Group Slams House Of The Dead Overkill

As reported by the Melbourne Herald-Sun, Pro Family Perspective director Angela Conway is leading the charge against HOTD:O. The game recently set a Guinness Book record for profanity.

Ms Conway goes on to say "The gaming industry has been mischievously misrepresenting the classification system on this issue."

All this is very interesting in the face of the Australian government refusing to allow a rating that would represent 18 plus. Presumably because no-one over 18 plays games. The comments on this article are well worth reading. (Culture, The House of the Dead: Overkill, Wii)
