Thoughts from a Bafta nominated Podcaster, Blogger, Writer and Commentator.
Over on the weekly PSP show podcast, I’ve taken a look at Football Manager Handheld 2009 for Sony’s Playstation Portable. Short review, any game that can accurately simulate the misery of managing Cowdenbeath, and then gives me the same rush that a no score draw at home in Central Park, must be doing something right!

What is in the water at Nintendo UK? There’s a nice interview with David Yarnton in the Times today, talking about the soon to be launched in the UK Nintendo DSi. It’s an evolution of the existing DS Lite, with basic cameras, SD Card support and an on-device store. Are they talking on the iPhone? Of course they are. But sometimes I wonder just what they think pirates are up to. First of all they’re proud that the DSi will not recognise the R4 Card (which is used to run homebrew code and .nds downloaded games). That protection should last
Right then, the latest PSP Show, where I look at the recent news and review a new title on an almost weekly basis, has been posted. #90 takes a look at the Need for Speed franchise and the latest title, Undercover. It’s a return to form after Pro Street but is it enough?
