We're getting a 'Modified' Version of Bulletstorm
When is the government finally going to give us a 'R' Rating as this is getting ridiculus.
Bulletstorm has been classified 'MA' in Australia - http://www.classification.gov.au/www/cob/find.nsf/5c2433d416948a0bca25759f00820d25/43c2bc0ff66df8b1ca2577ee0057eb92?OpenDocument - but when you look next to the version in the link you see we are getting one that has been "MODIFIED".
No word on what has been cut out but after seeing the recent ERSB classification you can work it out for yourself.
No wonder we are not getting the EPIC Edition that comes with the Gears 3 Beta when the original can't even pass our review board intact. Off to look for a region free version it seems.

"This is a first-person shooter in which players assume the role of a space pirate who must escape a planet populated by mutant cannibals. Players use futuristic machine guns, shotguns, magnum revolvers, assault rifles, and chain guns to perform over-the-top kills that dismember and decapitate foes. Injured enemies emit large sprays of blood that stain the ground and surrounding walls. Specialty kills (i.e., Skillshots) represent the most intense instances of violence: enemies can be dismembered with explosives; impaled on spikes; and drilled into walls, resulting in body parts breaking into pieces. During the course of the game, players can consume alcohol and kill enemies in order to receive an Intoxicated Skillshot; the screen turns blurry during these sequences. The dialogue contains numerous jokes and comments that reference sexual acts, venereal diseases, and having *** with one's mother (e.g., "Guess I know where the ol' gal got that limp."). The names of some Skillshots are infused with sexual innuendo (e.g., Gag Reflex, Rear Entry, Drilldo, Mile High Club); one Skillshot (i.e., Fire in the Hole) allows players to shoot at enemies' exposed buttocks. Language such as "f**k," "sh*t," "p*ssy," and "c*ck" can be heard in dialogue."

Update.
The "Modified" does not mean it has been edited for Australia. Does anyone remember whent he Reach classification came out with the same line saying 'Modified'?
Apparently, Reach was submitted in an unfinish build and was classified MA, it was then submitted again in the finished build and classified MA again. The 'modified' is just to say that the classification has been updated for the latest classification (though technically it stayed the same).

Yeah us Aussies love modding cover rating stickers.
I kind of laugh at classification debates though.
What's Bulletstorm anyway
