Following this, it’s amazing where you can find Microsoft adverts nowadays. For example on the back of a Future Publishing title here in the UK. But not an XBox 360 magazine like you might expect, but in fact on the back page of PSM3 magazine. As can be seen here, Microsoft obviously bought a page of advertising space on the magazine just to rub PS3 owners noses in it (that shouldn’t take long given the non-appearance of the console here in the UK and the rest of Europe yet of course!). As the guys at XBox360 fnaboy say, perhaps PS3 fans should just give in and buy and XBox 360 and Gears of War anyway…

So where else does my gaming time take me?? Well at the moment pretty much onto the Everybody’s Golf course on my PSP. I love my PSP. It is by far my best purchase for a long time (although I think come December 2nd my shiny new XBOX360 will take on this title). Everybody’s Golf is so easy to pick up and play a few holes and then put back down again. I’ve even played it against my brother over Wi-fi, and it was a blast (even if I did get hammered). If Everybody’s Golf leaves my PSP it tends to get replaced with Lumines which is a thing of wonder. Imagine the first time you ever played Tetris. Remember that?? Remember the wonder of “How will I ever get better at this??”. Remember the first time you got a 4 line combo on Tetris?? Now bring that feeling with you into a slightly different game. In this you have to make blocks of 2×2 of the same colour/pattern. And you only have 2 different colours/patterns to play with so it must be really easy right?? Dead wrong. If you haven’t played it you don’t know what you’re missing out on. It’s the reason to buy a PSP in my opinion. It’s scarily addictive and far too easy to kill a whole evening with.

I will post more about games. I will post lots more about games. For now, suffice to say that I’ve already got the rest of my progression to level 41 in EQ2 planned out in my head, and then we’ll see where my adventures take me.
