    Do release dates in the States work the same way as alot of things in Ireland (i.e. release date is Monday, but shops will stock them the previous Saturday for some weekend sales?)

    I think most of that has to do with the UK. I think we get the official release date as the UK's ones, but as our charts go from a Friday (UK on a monday) we get it a few days eariler.

    I think....

    Here is something new and intresting. A thum controller for the DS touch screen. It hasnt been confirmed but it actually makes alot of sense. Strap this on your thum so that you can control metroid and hold the DS all at the same time.

    Yeah I know it looks like a wrist strap but read the article on the link. Thet reckon that you tighten it to your thum and I reckon it doubles as a wrist strap as well.

    This is EA we are talking about. The only reason they are calling it goldeneye is to do a bit of money grabbing off the back of a classic game. don't think EA will care if its good or bad as long as they can flog a few million copies.

    I think the DS looks fairly naff compared to the PSP for some reason. Of course the PSP has a ridiculous price tag. I'll probably end up having to buy both :(

    They have to pay for all those stupid tv advertisements
