Deals with Gold currently has Syndicate for Xbox 360 for $3.99, however when I go to purchase it says it's not available for my region. A little research and I've found out it's banned in Australia. Any way of getting around this? I tried the purchase using Hola set to US but that didn't work as well. Any suggestions? Thank you :)

Use (or create) an American Xbox account. Use Paypal to purchase it, but remember that it's all in USD, which is bound to be much dearer than expected.
Australian censorship[edit]
On 20 December 2011, it was reported that Syndicate has been refused classification by the Australian Classification Board.[53] The board was especially critical of what it considered to be the game's excessive violence: explicit depictions of dismemberment, decapitation, exposed flesh and bone from injuries; and copious blood spray. EA Australia said they would not appeal the decision or change the game to address the Board's concerns. EA also complained about Australia's "arcane censorship on games" and said Syndicate would be released on schedule and uncut with an adults-only rating in New Zealand.[54]
lol come on, i remember playing this on PC 3yrs ago and I got about half way thru it. Its a generic shooter. I dont remember it being any worse than COD or whatever as far as gore goes.
