I found an awesome YouTube video showing a guy playing through the full prologue of the awesome looking Dead Island. It's looking pretty cool.

Australia to FINALLY get 18+ rated games, instead of making them ILLEGAL!

It seems those of you in Australia can finally play the games most people in any free country can already play!

For the longest time games like Left 4 Dead 2 have had to be edited or not be allowed at all in the country of Australia. The country of Australia has been a bit strange when it comes to allowing mature games to be released; they didn't allow Left 4 Dead 2 to get released because it was too mature and was not given a rating, so Valve edited it and took out the gore and things.

However, it seems that is all going to change with the 18+ rating. Finally, people in Australia will be able to play the games that most people are already allowed to play in the world.

Video Games - Outlawed for kids?

It seems that the supreme court is going to decide something that could effect a huge industry in the United States: video games. They are going to decide whether or not it's legal for kids to play violent video games.

It's okay for them to watch violent movies, which are far more realistic, so why not video games? Well, maybe it's the interaction with the video games that changes everything; kids can decide whether or not to beat up an old woman - they could decide to attack people for no reason.

Here is a news story, telling about how the Supreme Court is split on the decision...
