PS3 game banned by Australian classification board - OFLC

July 10th 2008 10:40
AUSTRALIA'S Office of Film and Literature Classification (OFLC) has gone high-profile, banning upcoming action RPG Fallout 3 by refusing it a rating.

Bethesda's postapocalyptic title was deemed unsuitable for the MA15 rating. Unlike films or DVDs, the highest rating allowed for a game in Australia is MA15 . There is no R18 available to video games, meaning anything deemed unsuitable for a 15-year-old is illegal to promote or sell

One of the most interesting and exciting games in development at the moment is Assassins Creed. It is also a game that the developers have said very, very little about.

The Battlefield 2142 Multiplayer demo is out a few days before release of the actual game and if you didn't pre-order through EA (like most sane people) it is available for everyone else now. Here's a link, i'm not sure what to think of it yet.

Company of Heroes

October 9th 2006 02:48
Relic seem to be the new real time strategy masters as their new game, Company of Heroes, seems to attest. One can actually look past the fact that it is a WWII game because of how good it is, in fact very little seems to be wrong with the title.

The core gameplay is similar to Relic’s previous title, Dawn of War, with a whole lot of depth added in. The key resource points around the map have been divided into three types; ones that deal with manpower and unit caps, ones that provide fuel for building and for vehicles, and ones for ammunition which govern unit special abilities and armament. These resource points must be linked to your HQ zone via area control and so sections of the map in between these points become just as important and provide an extra tactical nuance. Coupled with this resource management are a variety of command trees that one can progress through to unlock special abilities such as artillery strikes, unit drops and offensive and defensive bonuses.
