Alright folks, you’ve asked in the comments, you’ve sent emails – the people have clearly spoken! It’s time for some new sections on Kotaku Australia! We’re adding two new regulars into the mix, with one in particular kicking off today.
The first is The Set-Up which is a look at some of our readers stuff. This can be anything from awesome TV/Surround set-ups, to mad video game collections, retro stuff, figurines, cool modded desktops, anything. If you guys have an awesome set-up and feel like showing it off send me an email. Welbot has already sent me in an entry, so we’ll be posting that up later today!
The second is Reader Rants – think of it as a letters to the Editor section. Basically I want to give you guys a voice to talk on whatever video-game related topic you choose. The only guidelines are: try and keep it under 600 words, and avoid any crazy bad language. Otherwise – go nuts!
Alright, so make sure to email me your submissions here and let me know what you think in the comments below!

Mark Serrels
Tuesday, January 11, 2011 at 3:31 PMNot really, but to make my life easier try and make it less than ten – I’ll probably only post the best five anyway.

Look out Big M and your stupid make a little flappy tear thingo which just goes up and poof, the straw insertion point is ready to go..What.???. its stuck shut still, this damn cheap bakery straw has not the power to burst through your tight hymen like seal, you bastard, now look, the straws bent in twain. So you poke with your little finger and it finally ruptures squirting you in the eye, blinding you while the old man on the park bench laughs and pulls out a rancid old hanky.
I just want to enjoy my milk with a straw. :(

This is going to be very interesting..
As for set-ups, compared to my friends, I would have the best set-up. Compared to the interwebz, it’s just a fish tank. Never-the-less, I’ll send some in. :)
