PLAYSTATION TURNS 20
The original Sony PlayStation is 20 years old this month. Launched in Japan in December 1994, it didn’t arrive in North America and Europe until the following September. It went on to become the first games platform to ship more than 100 million units, wiping the floor with its rivals the Sega Saturn and Nintendo 64. Somewhat ironically in the latter instance, since the PlayStation had its origins in a joint CD-ROM venture between Sony and Nintendo.

The launch line-up of games for the system’s European debut included such gems as Ridge Racer, Rayman, and the Raiden Project.

"Or as I like to call them - the three Rs!!!!!!!!!!! I can't believe it has been 20 years already!!!??!!!!! I still remember that excellent launch line-up like it was last Wednesday!!!!!!!?!!!!! And the best thing is - Sony's launch line-ups just keep getting better!!!??!! Who wasn't tempted to upgrade to a new generation by a load of games that are already available on their current system, but with some new dust and bits floating around the screen!!?!?!?!!!!!!!!! I love dust motes!!!? They are the most awesome of all the motes!!!!!!?"

THE RETURN OF THE SPECTRUM
Sir Clive Sinclair has revealed a games system based on his hugely successful Spectrum brand of the early 1980s. The Sinclair Spectrum Vega is being launched by Retro Computers, a start-up company in which Sinclair Research Ltd. is a shareholder.

The standalone, sub-£100, console-type unit arrives complete with around 1,000 games built-in. Additional games can be downloaded, free of charge, from the Internet.

Currently at prototype stage, the company has launched an initial round of funding on Indiegogo.

"There's no way modern console games can compete with the classics!!!!!!!? Just like old songs, old games just improve with age!!!!!!? Who needs Dragon Age: Inquisition when you've got Kosmik Pirate?!?!?! I simply cannot wait to get my hands on one of these old school wonder machines!!!!???

LITTLE BIG SALES
The launch of Little Big Planet 3 on the PlayStation 4 has disappointed, after landing in the Chattrack All Formats chart at number 15. The biggest new launches of the week were Pokemon Omega Ruby and Sapphire, landing in the top ten at 6 and 7 respectively. Call of Duty: Advance Warfare marched to the top once again, up from last week’s number 3.

“I don’t get it!!!!!!!! Who doesn’t love LBP’s creepy, dead-eyed characters, and somewhat difficult-to-grasp concept?!? Don't these people like to be challenged?!??????!!!? Don't they want to wake up screaming in the night, having dreamt that they're being murdered in their beds by a disgusting, grinning, knitted dwarf????!!?!??!?!?!?!? Insanity!!!!!? But hats off to Sony for persisting with this critically acclaimed series in the wake of a stupidly apathetic audience!!!!! That's dedication!!!??!?!"
