Glad it's South Australia. Us fellas in New South Wales can remain high and dry with our R-rated films. Oh and just for the record here in australia we have MA 15+ and R is 18+. It's not like America where R categorizes both.

Where is Gordon Freeman and his wonder-crowbar when you need him?

For that matter, where is Yahtzee and his army of imps when you need him?

Between this and L4D2, i'm tempted to move there. Curse all you morally absent people.
Hey, I am all for my morals, but sometimes, us gamers need our blood on our screens, or see someone ripped to shreds. If Australia can't get that I say we kill Atkinson.

Ahhhhhh, you gotta love the good 'ol US of A.
Yeah, all you get is the entire country going batshit crazy when the breast of a woman is shown on TV. :)
On the other hand at least they DID show a breast on TV... glass half full an all.
You could see it that, way, yes - but then, some smartass asshole like me tells you that
a) it was unintentional and therefore no achievement whatsoever
and b) about 80% of all non-American broadcasters show breasts on a daily basis without the countries descending into chaos.
Where is this 80% you are talk of?

And while UK TV may show tits on TV, the unwritten rule is you can only show tits if they are old, wrinkly and saggy. Like if you have a for some retarded reason get a nudist on a show... well it has to be a 54 year old woman who looks like she has had 13 children and been living on a planet with extra high gravity!

I haven't seen fappable tits on TV since the late 1990's.

In fact Charlie Brooker (look him up, a funny ************ he is) has a theory on this that the reason all the sex has gone from TV is because of the internet, who wants to see something sexy while sitting on your sofa next to your mother... or worse vica versa.

I mean in the 90's when dial-up speeds meant you'd spend half an hour downloading one jpeg meant there was a huge demand for filth on TV. But broadband and deviantart google image search changed all that

"about 80% of all non-American broadcasters show breasts on a daily basis without the countries descending into chaos."

I lol at that. Not that Americans get riled up about a boob but how that is considered "chaos". It's just a bunch of attention whores whining and even worse attention whores whining about the whiners all because the biggest attention whore in the middle of it all felt like trolling the biggest TV event of the year which is the "Super Bowl" (which for years I thought was a chillie eating competition).

Yeah, it's trolling. Someone sees some tits when MTV covers spring break, no body cares, but since Americans don't have a monarchy (and it seems the national past-time is to hate their elected president even more than foreigners hate him) to them the "Super bowl" is like the Queen's speech... kinda... not quite.

This is rediculous. Isn't Atkinson the same guy who's always going on against video games? I'm glad Canada doesn't have a Looney Toon like him and Jack Thompson. Yech.
We have people who are just as bad, but who don't have the frankly bizarre amount of veto power as Michael Atkinson

Some relaxation please. I didn't intend to give a scientific speech to two guys who just said "lolz @ australia - yayz for usa".

"Non-American TV" does not equal "British TV". It means everywhere outside America. While I have no proof of that (of course, I haven't been watching every single TV channel on earth), I can talk for some countries including France, Germany, Swiss, Italy and Spain. You don't have to look for breasts, you just get them shown whether you like it or not.

Of course, there isn't going to be a civil war after a female breast gets exposed on TV in the USA. What I did is called exaggerating. But even the fact this gets talked about (besides, this was not as small as you make it sound, considering this topic was even brought in European TV under the topic "American prudes go nuts") is enough. That **** probably never felt it to be a big deal anyways, otherwise he wouldn't have done it, risking death and all.

I also don't believe in stereotypes. I just felt like answering that way to those people. I don't know whether you can understand me on that one.
