Blerk – Keep your eye out for this.
Pat’s on his way there now. I’m just waiting for Steph to come on now to co-ord with me and Nathan on MSN.

Why would EA be doing a Singstar game? And doesn’t Beatles Rock Band do singing already? That seems… odd.

I suppose Singstar is a more widely know franchise and doesn’t require as much plastic.

Oh, and incase you think Pat’s had a quick nip/tuck, Pat’s doing photography mostly.
Keza McDonald of Eurogamer is doing the livetext.

Tony Hawk? Activision won’t be pleased!
You know what’d be really great? A gizmo for these live blog things which read them out aloud so I could leave it running and do other stuff.

Why are all the images 256-colour dithered GIFs? It’s like I’m reading the internet back in 1993.

Other sites are saying they’ve confirmed a Brutal Legend demo for XBL/PSN next month! Did I miss that in the feed here?
Edit: Oh, weird – I saw that on my RSS from other sites about five minutes before it appeared in the live feed!

Kind of disorientating getting screens for Battlefield 2 in between Brutal Legend updates… especially on a ‘work friendly’ sized browser :p
Any chance to get seperate feeds next time? (Or is it just me!)
