For those of you who have been enjoying Metro 2033, you probably noticed a title update that caused you to lose some playing time.
Don’t get too mad though, because this update was mandatory in order to enable future DLC to be added to the game. According to the Metro 2033 Facebook page. It will not be Single Player Narrative levels, nor missing levels. They also said that it will not be multiplayer because that is not possible.
Any Ideas on what DLC could possibly be planned?
G’day everyone, Playstation Store updates are up and available for everyone to enjoy. Quit a few price updates to check out. New releases to have a look at would be 1942 Joint Strike, Sam And Max and Dragon Age Origins Awakening. Have a look, there should be something for everyone this week
Thanks SONY 🙂 !!

This is the Unreal Engine 3 Tech Demo showcased at GDC 2010.
Epic have released footage from its Unreal GDC tech demo that showcases the legendary Brumak smashing through a jungle. This is showing further evidence that Gears of War 3 will be taking advantage of the enhanced Unreal Engine foliage technology. It’s very exciting look at that big dog go.
Jungle Images look very detailed seems like Epic have been working very hard on their Unreal Engine to create impressive – and rather pretty looking – lush, plant-filled environments.
What you guys think ? Your thoughts ideas and opinions please.
On March 27th gamers around Australia will unite in Sydney to protest Australia’s lack of a R18+ rating for video games released in Australia. If you would like to also be a member of the protest and help raise awareness that there needs to be a change to the rating system, the zombie walk protest will start at Hyde Park Fountain on March 27 and lumber through Sydney.
In Australia if a game receives a rating higher than R15+, then the game is immediately banned and not allowed to be sold on Australian soil. There is always the choice to import the games, however they are deemed illegal. These protests have been wide spread in the hopes to encourage the Australian government to add the new R18+ rating, to match with most of the rest of the worlds views on video games.
Notable games that have been banned because of this include Left 4 Dead 2, Manhunt, Risen, and Silent Hill: Homecoming. Left 4 dead 2 had to be re-edited and the violence toned down greatly to receive a R15+ rating, and many other games have had release delays thanks to this old rating system.
Will anyone be taking part in this zombie walk protest? It’s a bit interesting that the protest involves people dressing up as the bloody undead, and walking through the streets. However it does get people’s attention, only time will tell though if it will be positive attention that will help change people’s minds. Or will it be negative because it may scare people even more of the violent nature of some video games, seeing people dressed up in such a manner in protest.
The photos shown were taken from the last protest in November of last year.

G’day everyone. MasterAbbott is back for another one of his Limited Edition UNBOXINGs. I love unboxing stuff !!

The God Of War III Ultimate Trilogy Edition is priced at WAIT FOR IT … $249.99 AUS which as always is WAY WAY TOO Much compared to what the rest of the normal gaming world pays for video games. So I have to say that unless your a true HARD CORE God Of War III fan I wouldn’t recommend it. If you just want to play the game then stick to the regular edition for a far cheaper price.
Content Review : 6.5 Capsules Out Of 10
Purchase only if your a true God Of War fan and want the extra little things such as God of War 1 and 2 remastered onto one blu-ray and also the sound track to all 3 games.
