Hookers in Revolt

Hookers in Revolt Taking its inspiration from Animal Farm, Hookers in Revolt is the story of a group of street prostitutes who finally decide that they've had enough mistreatment at the hands of their pimps. Adopting the slogan “all women are equal to men,” they band together, pool their resources and start to look out for each other.

There are a fair few fun moments in here, as well as plenty of skin and no shortage of soft-core sex scenes. Unfortunately, the parts are better than the whole which doesn't quite live up to its title.

Australian censor bans Fallout 3

Fallout 3 The Australian censor has effectively banned the Fallout 3 video game by refusing to grant it a certificate. At issue is that the censor believes the game rewards drug taking.

Australian gamers are protesting the decision, pointing out that the censors have already passed other games, such as Grand Theft Auto IV, that feature stronger drug use. More to the point is that morphine is a first-aid drug which makes its comparison to hard drugs rather foolish.
