The ‘technical features’ written by the company making this are better than anything that I could ever write, so here they are in unedited form. The first and last lines are magnificent.

PlayStation believe the best games are played as a group. That’s why they’ve set up Game Runners – an experimental project where PlayStation, members of the public and young people from diverse backgrounds come together to create social games.
The project has been developed by PlayStation and Hide & Seek with a team of 8 initial Game Runners who PlayStation have picked to train as game designers and work to make the games relevant.
For those of you down in London this Friday (8th) here are 4 reasons why you should come down to the final Game Runners event:
1. Play a monster sized version of Blocks
2. Between 5.30-6pm you can win a PS3 and PlayStation Move start up kit
3. Watch End of the Line graffiti artists.
4. The whole event is presented by urban street dance queen Kimberlee Jay
Friday 8th October 12 noon – 8.30pm. Elys Yard, The Old Truman Brewery,Hanbury Street London E1. Be there!
Yeah, that was all from the press release. But hey. Giant games are actually pretty cool. Giant Jenga is ace. Why not Blocks?
Nintendo have announced that the 3DS will be released in the UK this March. The highly anticipated handheld will hit Japan first on February 26th, much later than expected, at around 25000 yen – so hopefully the machine will be under £200 once it hits Britain and many Americans are aghast as they may be paying over $300. Quite expensive for a handheld, but the games look amazing – check out the video above for a look at the brilliant software line-up including two Resident Evil games, Metal Gear Solid 3 and a bunch of Nintendo classics. The dinky machine plays games and films without the need for 3D glasses and you can even take 3D photos thanks to two camera on the outer casing. More news as we get it.
So what if Nintendo decided that Pokémon needed to be more gritty and produced a live action movie to reboot the series. Well, it could be something like this, produced by some very talented fans. Heck, looks better than any game movie shat out by Uwe Boll and Paul W.S. Anderson.
