L4D2 AU Ban Appealed

Valve announces the final ratings for Left 4 Dead 2 for all territories except the UK and New Zealand, where final ratings are expected in days. They also address the recent news that the co-op zombie shooter sequel is refused classification by the OFLC for sale in Australia by saying they have appealed that decision. Here is the rundown of Left 4 Dead 2 ratings as of now:

CERO (Japan) -Z (corresponds to Mature in US)
IFCO (Ireland) - Approved the title for classification.
USK (Germany) - 18+
Singapore - Mature 18
FPB (South Africa) - 18+
KGRB (Korea) -18+

Their press release definitely makes it clear what they think about the OFLC's rating system.
Namely: "Your lack of an 18+ category is preposterous."

I have to agree. Suggesting that the most mature content allowed in the region is fit for 15-year-olds is absurd.
