Kotaku Australia has revealed that the upcoming Battlefield Heroes will only be available in the US and EU..’for now.’

Interesting to see this move by EA, maybe they want to see how their new free-to-play model works before going world wide? Who knows, but I am sure we will hear more on this in the coming months.

The second piece of news for the day comes by way of GamesPolitics and reveals that the Sierra Club plans to place a 1% sales tax on TV sets and Video Games. The plan is to raise $4 million to go towards funding programs to give kids an outdoors education.

I have my reservations on this, surely parents should be able to give their children this education themselves by taking them for a walk in the park or forest. I don’t see how this is going to have any real effect on anything apart from to line a few peoples pockets.

Finally CVG has unearthed some new Far Cry 2 screens, and they do look very very nice!
