So it seems you’ll now be able to get the latest football highlights on your PSP for only £5 a month. This may help me as somehow trying to follow football on the TV turns my brain into a spam sandwich. Yet throw a copy of PES into your console of choice and I can question the ref’s last sight test as well as anyone, must be the colour depth or something. Similarly I find it tricky to run over grannies and shoot cops unless I have a pad in front of me, weird.

I only highlight this story, about how gamers annoy non-gamers, because I take issue with the writer’s definition of a non-gamer. Not only does this non-gamer actually seem to play games, but has also ploughed through enough of the Final Fantasy series to declare 7 (yes I wrote it as a number, ha) as the best. From my own experience living with a non-gamer I’d say taking up too much of the main TVs time or talking about anything game related would be the most annoying habits. Oh and screaming while throwing the pad at the sofa is probably near the top of the list too.
