As with any piece of hardware, there were numerous extra cables that didn&#8217;t seem to do much at all, and I was about to throw them all [&#8230;]]]></description>

The plan is to update it daily with some new gaming topic I&#8217;ve been pondering, or at least multiple times a week. Nothing too heavy, mind &#8211; just short points of discussion.

First up, I&#8217;ve got a couple of big writing gigs at the moment &#8211; I&#8217;m the UK editor for Gamasutra, and the Handheld editor for Pocket Gamer.
