Battlefield 3 DLC Sale on Origin
Did you preorder Battlefield 3, play it for a bit, then move to other pastures? Until the 22nd of January, each of the DLC expansions (barring the latest, the excellent Aftermath) is available for just under 10 bucks each.
If you want to spring for Aftermath as well, you are better off purchasing Premium, which gives you the equivalent of a season pass - including the unreleased Endgame DLC - and a few minor benefits.

Video Games and Virtual Economies
I have been following this channel for some time now and thought I would throw this video your way.
It is a 5 minute discussion about virtual economies in video games and how virtual items have real world values.
Also please check out other videos from The Idea Channel.

This is a video I have found that goes into a bit more detail about the new SimCity while showing some of the graphics off and how the new engine works.
Worth a watch if you are looking forward to the new SimCity.

Australia gets it's R18+ rating for games, finally!
It has been a long time and long hard struggle for those who campaigned for it, but as of 1st of January 2013, Australia will have a R18+ for video games.
Up until now, the highest rating for a video game was MA15+, allowing children 15 years old to purchase more-or-less adult material games. High violence, course language, adult themes were all available to young children. Along with that some games like Rockstar's Grand Theft Auto and Valve's Left 4 Dead 2 have previously been denied classification and sale in Australia due to the game being to "adult" for any previous classification and refused sale.
With the introduction of the new category for video games, children can be prevented sale of adult games and along with games that are "too adult" can now be classified and allowed sale on Australian shelves.
While this helps protect children at the store counter, nothing is stopping parents for buying the games for their kids. However, with this rating, like videos and movies, they can easily judge whether the content will be suitable for their child.
