F.E.A.R. Demo Review

The demo for one of the most awaited games of the year, F.E.A.R., was released last Friday and I finished the download today via torrent. I could’ve finished it earlier but my connection was behaving erratically. The download is all of 646.67MB. It’s a pretty short demo though - at most 30 minutes of gameplay and that too because you will spend a few minutes getting used to all the controls. But the game itself is fantastic!

Why are video games blamed?

Grand Theft Auto San Andreas Banned in Australia

Source: GameBiz

Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, has been banned in Australia because it contains pornographic material.

The Office of Film and Literature Classification said it was forced to revoke the game’s MA15+ classification following revelations users could unlock sexually explicit content by installing a downloadable patch.

Revokation means that the game can no longer be sold or hired in Australia.

My Two Cents:

Is this just the beginning? Will GTA: SA be subjeted to more bans? I certainly think so. Rockstar made a mistake, and then came up with lame excuses to try and prove their innocence. Maybe they should consider sticking to consoles :lol: as the PC platform exposed them ;)
