As the attorney general of South Australia, Michael Atkinson has been one of the most rabid critics against the introduction of an R18+ classification in Australia. This has made him a frequent target for Aussie gamers. GameSpot recently had a chance to ask Mr. Atkinson why he's so against the R18+ rating. Check out Mr. Atkinson's point of view after the jump.

Homebrew dev Miles has tipped us off to the release of PSP Boxing South Park, the new incarnation of the homebrew game PSP Boxing Kenny. Just like the Kenny release, the objective in this game is simple: you just have to hit as many targets as you can within the time limit.

Oh my God! You killed Kenny! You b*****ds! Here's you chance to give poor Kenny McCormick another chance to kick the bucket, just like in every episode of South Park. See how efficiently you can beat the daylights out of the murmuring 5th-grader. This hilarious game is brought to us by Miles. Check it out.

Thanks to Miles for sharing this one with us!

(Editor's Note: Are your wallets feeling cobwebbed inside lately? Not surprising - it's raining game releases all week like white on rice. And that's across all consoles, across all platforms - just the way we like it!)

Whew! Too many games, too little time! QuickJump QuickPeek 21 is rounding up news from this week - "this week" here, A.K.A. "Assassin's Galaxy Crysis Ops+ week". Ok, that's probably forcing it. Let's just let it slide for now, shall we? From last week's QuickPeek, let's roll out!

Sony Computer Entertainment America (SCEA) has just revealed their plans of a new TV advertising campaign for their PSP handheld platform. Who's the endorser, you ask? It's none other than NFL All-Pro athlete Michael Strahan of the New York Giants.

The football star will be the image model for the new PSP campaign that will extend the "Dude, Get Your Own" line of commercials. In fact, Strahan will be appearing side by side with the PSP's "Annoying Guy" made popular in the existing ads. Hmm... A tall tower of muscle faced against a skinny PSP fanboy. Accident waiting to happen, much?

Behold the new voice of Tomb Raider: Minnie Driver! The new "ReVisioned" series based on Tomb Raider's Lara Croft was launched by GameTap Retrospective in honor of the 10th anniversary of the release of the first game.  For more Lara Croft fun, the 10th Anniversary celebration will also release the Tomb Raider: Anniversary game on the PS2, Xbox 360 and the PlayStation Portable.

Seems like this delectable diva has been busy in the animation industry recently.  She also stars in the new Simpsons movie.  Probably the most spectacular demonstration of her voice was when she played Carlotta in The Phantom of the Opera, an even bigger diva than she is in real life.  She has experience in voicing an animated character from before: she played Brooke Shields in South Park and Lady Eboshi in Princess Mononoke so our favorite heroine will be safe in her hands (and microphone.)

"ReVisioned" will premier on July 10 on GameTap.com.  A new episode will appear every week through August 23.  And hey, it's free!

 

Mr. Shizzy has just released his very first homebrew game mod, Turrican South Park Mod. As you can probably tell already, this mod builds on Arguru's Turrican brew which was first released way back in July last year.

But to put an interesting slant into the game, he decided to create a South Park theme for the game as well, allowing users to take on the character of our foul-mouthed friend, Cartman. Timmy, Kenny, Mr. Hat, Mr. Hanky (The Christmas Poo, for those who don't know), Terrence, and Phillip will be your enemies. There are currently two levels in the game, but Mr.Shizzy says that if Arguru releases a level editor for Turrican, he'll be updating his mod as well.

Mr.Shizzy wants to give a shout out to Team DJMNV, Arguru, and VettaCossX for all his help and support. Installation instructions and more notes on the release can be found in the readme so please do check it out.
