A reasonably reliable age-rating system means the censor’s dreaded hand doesn’t fall on British shoulders too often. The system was introduced back in 1994, after console titles Mortal Kombat (blood!) and Night Trap (lingerie!) were hounded by the tabloids for their blurry, digitised video content.

The only time a game of note was denied a rating was the first Carmageddon, a racing-cum-pedestrian-murder title from 1997. Publishers SCi released the game by replacing humans with zombies, but later squeezed the original game out under an 18-rating anyway.
