Well, i can't make this topic really much more than it is...Australia have banned the release of Saints Row 4 for having an "Alien Anal Probe" weapon in the game.
Here's a picture...:vince:

The ACB (Aussie Classification Board) banned the game because it implied sexual violence.
Here's what they stated:
"The game includes a weapon referred to by the Applicant as an 'Alien Anal Probe'. The Applicant states that this weapon can be 'shoved into enemy's backsides'. The lower half of the weapon resembles a sword hilt and the upper part contains prong-like appendages which circle around what appears to be a large dildo which runs down the centre of the weapon.
"When using this weapon the player approaches a (clothed) victim from behind and thrusts the weapon between the victim's legs and then lifts them off the ground before pulling a trigger which launches the victim into the air. After the probe has been implicitly inserted into the victim's anus the area around their buttocks becomes pixelated highlighting that the aim of the weapon is to penetrate the victim's anus.
"The weapon can be used during gameplay on enemy characters or civilians. In the Board's opinion, a weapon designed to penetrate the anus of enemy characters and civilians constitutes a visual depiction of implied sexual violence that is interactive and not justified by context and as such the game should be Refused Classification."
ACB also disallowed the game because there were narcotics(drugs) which gave you superpowers. :p
Voliton who is a part of the development group for Saints Row 4 said they'll try to get the game unbanned in Australia eventually.
