two words: Italian Spider-man.
Now I dare you to tell me what this wouldn't be awesome, hell it looks better than the spider-man films with Tobey Maguire in them XD

Okay, this has got to stop. The game rating system in Australia is fucked beyond belief, only really surpassed by Germany, but that's not the point.

The Office of Film and Literature Classification of Australia (OFLC) has today banned the sale and import of Left 4 Dead 2, one of the most anticipated games of the year and a huge pre-order game around the country.
Apparently they've Banned it for "Excessive violence and horrific acts against living humans, especially with melee weapons, which result in copious amounts of blood and gore, dismemberment and decapitation." Have they seen any of the gore flicks released in the last few years? What the fuck??
As I said before, this has gone too far. The OFLC seems to be so out of touch that they think they can just make up our minds for us and we'll just agree. This is not the case. Even though I agree that it should not be released under an MA15+ rating, since it is incredibly visceral, with tons of blood spraying everywhere and cutting people up and stuff, yet the OFLC is completely opposed to simply creating a R18+ rating for video games, they seem content to assume that nobody over the age of eighteen even looks at video games, which is absolutely not the case.

Why won't they just make an R18+ rating?
One of their arguments is that children shouldn't be allowed to view such explicitly violent content. I have to say that I completely agree with this statement, but they also seem to assume that every single parent in our wide brown land is an incredibly negligent person who just lets their five-year-old play Dead Space or Mad World. Sure there is the occasional parent who needs a child-rearing class, but lets face it, most people who decide to have kids aren't fucking around, so they're be perfectly reasonable when it comes to their children's exposure of video games. Seriously, you wouldn't take your six-year-old to see SAW 5 would you?
When it comes down to it, the average age of gamers worldwide is 31. I think if we can hold down a steady job, own a car, house and pay taxes, we should be able to decide by OURSELVES if we want to view violent, sexual, drug involving or otherwise offensive content in the media that we pay for, be it movies, books, tv or video games, without some government watchdog looking over out shoulders telling us what to do, don't you think?


I have to say, I'm almost entirely certain that the entire board is made up of grumpy, uninteresting old men, who enjoy nothing more than taking candy from babies and knocking kids off their tricycles.

Oh well, that's my vent for the week

Oh noes!! My PS3 has crapped itself!! DX

I'm so pissed off about it. As I've just said, my PS3 has broken down today and I'm pretty sure that nothing can be done about it. :\
I started it up as usual, I went into the PSStore to check out what was new and after about 5 seconds, it froze, then shut itself down. Now whenever I try to turn it on it stays on for no less than three seconds, then turns itself off with the red standby light flashing. plus the PS3 has my copy of GTA4 stuck in there, so I dunno how I'm gonna get that out.

I could send it off to Sony to get it fixed, but the chances are that it'd just break down again in the next few months, PLUS they actually charge you for fixing something that they fucked up in the first place.
I could trade it in with the warranty at Harvey Norman (the warranty has about two months left on it ) but I'd trade it in for a 40 gig with no backwards compatibility (I still love my PS2 games!! D, only two usb slots, none of my save data on my HDD AND I'd lose about $400 because my bro spent $1000 on it.
At the moment I think my best bet is to just get a full refund and just buy a completely new one plus some new controllers and stuff.

I'd say I got a solid 120 hours of gaming out of it, which, when you compare it to the at least 500 hours of gaming I got on my PS2, is pretty measly.

I think what I'm going to do now though is buy an external HDD, take the HDD and external HDD to a friend's house with a PS3, plug them both into their PS3 and chuck all of my Save data on the EXHDD.


Still, it's a pretty fudged up thing at the moment :\
If anyone has any ideas, or if they can shed any light on the situation, just comment on this journal, your input is much appreciated.

Thanks for listenin' guys

**** Just editing to say that the Wattle festival is on this Sunday, the 30th, npot saturday. ****

Hi everyone, just updating my journal, 'coz 'twas gettin' a little stale, if ya know what I mean

Well, where to begin? News I reckon.
first off, I love my school and my tablet. They're epically fun to use and to play with.

Second off, my Girl Jessy has her own DA page now, Hallelujah! you can find her at Have a look at her art and give some constructive feedback ^^ lol also I love her too, can't forget that of she'll tan mah hide

I don't really know what else to talk about, Wattle Festival is on this sunday, so anyone around the Nillumbik Shire area of Victoria should check it out right away, it'll be super fun with huge arse bratwurst hotdogs I eat 'em all ups.

At the moment I'm reading a book I got at a $2 shop called 'Soon I will be Invincible'. It's not a very good book, but it's all about superheroes, and I really love to look into each person's own iteration of the superhero genre. It's interesting for the backstory and lore, if nothing else

Another thing, Brutal Legend is coming out 'Rock'tober 15th. It's so far away. I wantz Tim Schafer goodness now

Anywho, All's good and well in the realm of Rohan, and my Reign of terro. . . err delightfullness continues ^^

Lol so yeah!

That's right folks, I'm gonna be off to Noosa in Queensland this week and next, so I'm not gonna be on ^^

I just had a horrifying thought, I'm gonna have so frickin' many deviations when I get back!! D:

lol it'll be alright tho, I took my PC up to my cousin's house today because he wants to work on it over the two weeks I'm away, putting new games on it, new software (including CS4!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! yay :3) and just generally tuning it up. I also gave him about 300 bucks so he could buy me a new HD 'coz I have to have more space


well, that's about it for now, see you all in a few weeks! ^^

cheers
