From gameplayer.com.au (via n4g.com):

Are gamers scared of sex? If you look at the last 20 years of commercially released computer and video games, the only conclusion you can draw is that game players are absolutely terrified of fucking. Only a handful of thousands of games have contained sexual content, and when sexuality is occasionally used in games it invariably causes controversy and moral panic. In Australia, games with sexual content are refused classification and banned from sale.

Australian gamers seem particularly fearful of sex and the Australian government, via the classification guidelines, has been making sure we don’t see anything ‘naughty’ involving pink bits since 1993. Extreme violence against law enforcement officers and innocent civilians in games is sweet – just as long as you can’t see a penis or vagina.
