    GameStop Turns Off the Light on the DS Lite

    Just to let you know mate, I don't think that Gamestop made the choice for no longer stocking the DS Lite. It would be a choice from Nintendo. I don't know about over in the states, but here in Australia, there hasn't been any form of deals offered on the DS Lite since the DSiXL came out. On...

    Aion's Absurd Custom Keyboard

    It's not a keyboard at all. It's a Z-Board Keyset, which as many of you guys have already pointed out, is pretty much just a redesign of the WoW Keyset. For anyone unfimiliar with Z-Boards, they come with the ability to 'change' the key layout, by purchasing the 'keysets', which you just unclip...

    Diablo 3 To Be Edited For Australia, Germany

    Dragon Age is has been aloud into Australia, so I think he is jumping the gun a bit there. They haven't even shown the game to the OFLC, and it's due out in 2012. As an Australian, I'm not worried yet, as it's a fair way off, and if they alow games like DragonAge in, then I have good hope that a...

    My new beef with the Australian OFLC

    Ah, and therein lies the problem! There need to be ?clear? guidelines in which the OFLC works under. If you want a ratings system that works, then you need a set of rules that they all follow, and not make allowances for one game or another. If all of these games were refused classification...

    My new beef with the Australian OFLC

    I officially have a new problem with the OFLC in Australia. They claim that they are there to protect young children against harmful material, even though the average age here is Australia is 24 from last check of people who play games regularly. These are the same guys who say that there is no...

    GameStop Unintentionally Aiding Piracy?

    I shop at EB Games here is Australia, and although they have the same policy, they take the manuals out of the box along with the discs. Maybe GameStop needs to take a feather out of the Australian branch of the GameStop tree, and follow their lead. It's not like it's hard.

    F.E.A.R. 2 Banned In Australia

    Now you see this type of attitude sucks. The moment that you import games, you are bypassing the Australian retail chain, hence you are making hard working Australians miss out on opportunaties to get paid. Take GTA 4 for example. People were happy to import the PS3 version of the game just so...

    F.E.A.R. 2 Banned In Australia

    I work for an Australian Gaming retailer, and I can tell you that this is really starting to get very old, very quickly. The amount of games that are refused classification nowadays is just starting to get beyond a joke. The thing is, that Atkison (the minister that is stopping any talks for...

    EA Makes Changes To Spore DRM

    I think EA is missing the point here. It really wasn't about how many PC's you could install the game on, it was about the fact that you were restricted to only having one account accociated with the one copy of the game, which for legitimate players, is a pain. But thankfully they have seen...

    The Dark Knight - Not All That

    It was a bit overated, but I thought the movie was extremly entertaining, and isn't that what movies are suposed to do? Heath Ledger was a brillant villian. Nuf said.

    Rock Band Dev Working on Music Creation

    Shame us Australians STILL HAVE NOT RECEIVED ROCK BAND 1!!! This announcement of Rock Band 2 really pissed me off when they want to ship the next title, but still have many people waiting for the first one. At this rate, we are going to see World Tour before any Rock Band hits AUS.

    Harmonix Announces Rock Band 2

    I'm sorry to be the negative one about this announcement, but Harmonix haven't even shipped the game into Australia yet, and they have already announced RB2? So now that this is out, what's the point in retailers even stocking this title, espesually when they are saying that it's coming out in...
