Those of you reading this in India probably know that the Budget is being announced today, and one little update we noticed is that the customs duty on games and music software has been rationalised. What does this mean for you? Cheaper games, maybe, though we’re still looking for more details on this one, and [...]
The latest big news in videogames now is putting Facebook and Twitter on consoles, and now you can visit Facebook from your PS3, and find out what your friends are up to, if you’re too lazy to look away from the TV screen and look to your phone or laptop or out the Window for [...]
Microsoft won’t be releasing Fallout 3 around these parts. The reason? They are afraid some parts of the game aren’t very much suited to ‘Indian sensibilities’. …in light of cultural sensitivities in India, we have made the business decision to not bring Fallout 3 into the country (source).
