The video game Left4Dead 2 has officially been banned in Australia. The game was deemed too violent for the land down under. The board claims that the game was denied because it features high impact violence and in inappropriate for anyone under the age of 18. Now it is illegal to sell the game anywhere in the country. <3 Bubbles
The house that was entirely made of legos is now no more. It was demolished and it is a very sad day!

There is a rumored price drop on the Wii. Supposedly it is going to drop to $199.99. This is shown in the Target catalog dated September 27, so if you are looking for a Wii, I recommend that you wait a few more days to buy one. Don't worry it isn't just Target that is dropping their prices, but I am just not certain what other stores are going to participate in this nonsense.

A Norwegian bus driver has adopted what may be the longest nerdy name ever. His name is now Julius Andreas Gimli Arn MacGyver Chewbacka, Highlander Elessar-Jankova. WOW thats a MOUTHFUL!!!! He came up with this by putting together pop-culture names that include a dwarf, a wookie, a mortal, and a crime fighter. Too bad he spelt Chewbacca's name wrong. But he promises to correct it in his next name change.

Heroes is the most illegally downloaded show on the internet. According to research firm Big Champagne, over 55 MILLION people have illegally downloaded and watched TV drama online. ABC's Lost came in second, while Fox's 24 came in third. Although most the the top ten illegally downloaded shows are on sites like Hulu, most were only recently added, and Hulu isn't available outside the United States.

It is confirmed that as of September 25, 2009 iPhones users in the United States will be able to send MMS messages to each other. This means that we will be able to send images and such through texting to other people. OH HAPPY DAY! This will be made possible through an update of the iPhone software through iTunes. But I am so to say, that first generation iPhone users will be unable to have this MMS option.
