The week in Gaming:

The Minister for Home Affairs Brendan O-Connor has released a draft set of guidelines for an R18+ rating for videogames. These guidelines have been distributed to Attorneys General of each state ahead of the SCAG meeting in July.

A games collector from Thailand is selling his collection of every Final Fantasy game ever released across every console for $15,000. The collection is made up of over 70 games, some of which are extremely rare.

PSN store will not be back online today as recently advised by Sony. Instead, it appears the original prediction of the end of May will be the case.

Trion Worlds have announced that a free cross server character transfer will be available for new MMO RIFT. They are hoping this will normalise server populations.

The PSN is finally back online in Australia! While not all services have been restored (most notably Playstation Store), multiplayer gaming is now fully functional. Today Sony’s President and CEO, Kaz Hirai presented the following video statement.

LA NOIRE is set for release in Australia next Friday 20 May. Here is the official launch trailer to get your appetite going. If you absolutely cannot wait to play it, head to the THE MANA BAR on Thursday the 19th from 5PM for an sneaky pre-play.
