Australia's lack of an adult video game rating has caused yet another game to be banned from sale in that country. The latest in a long stream of such issues is for Necrovision, the recently released horror-themed first person shooter from developer The Farm 51 and publisher 1C Company. Gamespot AU reports that Australia's Classification Board stated that the game's violent content was to blame.

The board specifically made mention of Necrovision's "blood spray" when taking out enemies and also mentioned the ability to do "post mortem" damage to the game's AI foes. As a result the game was deemed too violent to be listed under the country's current maximum rating of MA15+. It's unknown at this point if 1C Company will try to appeal the ruling or perhaps created an edited version of Necrovision for release in Australia as other games have done.
