Australiaās long national nightmare of maybe not being able to play Left 4 Dead 2 may soon be over, as the governmentās media ratings board has apparently issued the zombie shooter a rating of MA-15+.
That would essentially mean an end to the ābanā on Valveās PC and Xbox 360 sequel and translate into āgood newsā for our Survivor friends down under.

No word yet on whether Valveās appeal was successful and/or if the company had to submit the edited version of the game for the Australian release.

Update: According to Valve, the version of Left 4 Dead 2 rated by the Australian government is āthe adjusted version.ā Reps for the developer say āWe are still awaiting the review and decision on the rest of world/standard version and remain optimistic about being able to ship this version in Nov. However, we are now able to ship a version of Left 4 Dead 2 in Australia. So the question is no longer if L4D2 ships there, but which version.ā
Left 4 Dead 2 [OFLC ā thanks, Robert!]
