Australia’s censor board maybe retarded, but it seems they’ve finally done something right! According to the OLFC Report obtained by IGN, the game has been cleared for the AU release with a suggested MA15+ rating with “Strong Drug References”

In the minority view of the Board the drug use in the game is in excess of the general rule applied under the Guidelines. The drugs are unambiguous in their visual representations, which include pills and hypodermic needles, and are related to incentives and rewards in that the incentive to take the drug is that progress through the game is achieved more easily and the reward is an increase in the character’s abilities. The game therefore warrants and ‘RC’ classification.
