Wishes he was Elton John, apparently.

[Crossed fingers]

Is Metro turning into a games mag? Yesterday they had a section on the PSP and Nintendo DS.

Roffle! Complete with ripoff 'where to purchase' recommendations!

But, yeah, at least they do articles putting games in a decent (mature) light sometimes... which considering they're a Northcliffe (Daily Mail) publication...

I used to work for Northcliffe, fact fans.

Got a surprise when I saw this on the bus today.

WHy would they suddenly do an interview? Is he over here?

Regarding that PSP/DS article - the PSP costs ?300, the DS is ?250 and is also a PDA - it was total crap.

[Saurian]

It "only plays games" was used so many times in that handheld feature. It's like as if playing games is some kind of secondary feature to a games machine to these people.

[JibberX]

Only children play games, sheesh. Us adults play Interactive Entertainment. Kinda like comics and graphic novels (come on!).

[Kaladron]

That interviewer didn't seem to realise that Uematsu is actually a member of the Black Mages.

Oh and the portable article was ramshank! "There's a possibility that the DS could double up as a PDA". Dickheads.

[JU!]

Cheers anephric that was a nice reade so Metro is now brilliant in my eyes Nice to hear what he had to say and i look forward to FF:VII Advent Children, geese that was hard to type Final fantasy needs to get shorter names.
