Silent Hill Fans Advised to 'wait out' Game Ban

Gamers are being urged to "wait out" the ban on Silent Hill: Homecoming as industry figures slam the lack of an adult rating for video games in Australia.

The latest title in the popular Silent Hill game series that spawned a feature film in 2006 was refused classification after failing to meet the requirements for an MA15+ rating.

The head of Australia's video game industry body today said the decision reflected an "unfair" discrimination between rating systems for film, literature and games.
