This is basically banning it for sale in the country.

Left 4 Dead 2 has been refused classification (http://www.shacknews.com/onearticle.x/60486) by Australia's Office of Film and Literature Classification, effectively banning Valve's co-op shooter sequel from sale in Oz.

Quote:
The game contains realistic, frenetic and unrelenting violence which is inflicted upon "the Infected" who are living humans infected with a rabies-like virus that causes them to act violently... it is the use of the "melee" weapons such as the crowbar, axe, chainsaw and Samurai sword which inflict the most damage. These close in attacks cause copious amounts of blood spray and splatter, decapitations and limb dismemberment as well as locational damage where contact is made to the enemy which may reveal skeletal bits and gore. Projectile shots to infected humans can cause abdominal wounds which can reveal innards or even cause intestines to spill from the wounds.
Response today from Valve, yea they are bummed.
