Is he stroking an invisible dog?

"There is nothing that pisses me off more than paying money to be advertised to."
I feel exactly the same way about Sky television, which I refuse to get.

Hmm...£299.99 gets you a PS3 with a couple of decent games. What the heck does £229.99 get you? Apart from RSI...(it hardly looks like the most comfortable thing to hold!).

How are Game taking pre-orders? I can't see anything on their website...unless it's only done through their stores.

Also, since when does an organisation that runs "21 North East UK-based outlets" become an authority on the workings of the entire UK gaming retail industry?

Presumably the PSP version will contain none of the touchscreen shenanigans I enjoyed so much on the DS.

"kids should be spending more time outside exercising instead of playing games"

Simple. Purchase an extension lead that will allow you to position both the television and console out in the garden.

Problem solved.
