Finally worked out how to find my Wii friend code. Add me if you're ever up for a game of Super Smash Bros Brawl or any of the other multiplayer games or just to send me a message.

Spore Creature Creator Customers get Rebate (but is it a con?)
EA sent out an email today to those that purchased the full Spore Creature creator with a discount code to receive the amount they paid for the Creature tool off the their purchase of the full game.
It appears this offer only works if you pre-order through EA.
I've had my copy Spore pre-ordered at Play.com for months. I was about to cancel my Pre-order until I saw that a digital download version of Spore for PC from EA costs £39.99 where as I pre-ordered mine from Play.com for jus t£26.99!
Doing the math is easy £4.99 off the £40 bucks EA is charging is still a full £7 more than from Play.com which actually sends me a physical copy of the game.
The price was for the early birds that pre-ordered months ago but even now you can pre-order spore for £29.99 at Play.com incl delivery.
I don't regret getting the Creature Creator as I've had loads of fun with it and I am all set to start playing with them on launch day but feel the rebate should have been cash back when you purchase the game even if not for the full RRP from EA direct.
Free Game for Nokia phones
As you may have seen on a recent episode of START/SELECT Nokia is relaunching it's N-Gage brand as a software download on it's recent handsets. GameSpot UK and EA are giving away thousands of copies of FIFA 2008 for compatible Nokia handsets - you just have to download the N-Gage software.
My Social Life is over
With Stargate Worlds Beta invites been sent out last night, Lost coming back to our screens tonight (US, Sunday for UK) and Wii Fit landing this weekend, the little free time I had is about to disappear.
Stargate Worlds promises to be the most exciting MMO in years. It has taken risks by trying some very different and interesting game mechanics - especially with combat. The developers are really listening to the players even when it comes to fine tuning the tools used report bugs/make suggestions in the beta. The Beta is initially going to be closed and under NDA so if I'm in I can't tell you about it until the NDA ends but I will be compiling the best info, screenshots and video I can for my preview.
Lost fans can celebrate the wait is over and the answers are coming - or so we are told. If you've been filling in the time during the mid-season break with the Lost Game then you will be suffering a little less than the rest of us fans who are experiencing withdrawl symptoms from not seeing what's going on on the island.
My unused Gym membership pass that I carry around in my wallet has done nothing for me but when Wii Fit comes out the fun get fit techniques will hopefully get me to actually excercise. The Wii Fit GameSpot Videos of it in action and of couse the great Nintendo trialers make this look like the must have console accessorie of the summer.
