Anyone who has played L.A. Noire will appreciate this hilarious clip from Funny or Die. The sketch highlights just how bad the ‘Doubt’ dialogue option can be in the game, turning the nice caring main character into a screaming maniac.
Kinect on PS3

Hardcore coder Shantanu Goel has managed to get the Xbox Kinect up and running on the PS3 – and most impressive of all is that the console is not running hacked firmware. The video below shows the technology working pretty well for controlling the XMB, but playing Killzone 3 looks a real challenge. Shantanu plans to keep refining the code and if you want to try if for yourself you can download the source code from his website.

In the red corner, Joyride for Xbox 360Kinect and in the blue corner the Go Kart ode from Gran Turismo 5. Which one has the daftest video on YouTube? You decide. Also as a special bonus we have the trailer from 80’s classic Pole Postition – they don’t make them like that anymore.
Being Followed By Kanye West

Kanye West joined Twitter a few weeks ago, and has decided to follow just one person, a young student from Coventry called Steven Holmes. At first Steven was happy, but five thousand followers and countless messages later from Kanye’s 400, 000 followers he is sick of all the attention. To many it would sound like a dream come true – a famous person seemingly interested in your life, thousands of people now intrigued by you, centre of attention in tech news – however Twitter is filled with members of the general public who are annoying at the best of times so receiving hundreds of badly spelt and often hateful messages from them can’t be much fun. It’s not all bad though as he’s been offered some free Irn Bru.
No doubt it will be worse tomorrow now the papers have featured his story, and 4chan will soon be on the case to make his life even worse. Still – I would put up with constant messages saying ‘DON’ T H8 APPR8′ and ‘NO OFFENSE DUDE BUT WHO ARE U AND WHY IS KANYE FOLLOWING YOU’ for some tasty fizzy Scottish goodness.
Microsoft versus Google Maps

Microsoft has been trying their hardest to fight against the growing threat of Google and their next stage of attack is an alternative to Google Maps, and as you can see in this video it is really rather cool! IT will be interesting to see how Google counters this, we have already seen the Google Image search engine go under a major overhaul in the past week which makes it more like Microsoft’s Bing image search. Look out for a Microsoft Maps camera car in your street soon.
