Damn good thing I sorted my online banking a few days ago. TBH I tend to use it to either pay off the credit card or check the statement.

Asda and Tesco allow you to place an order up to the 16/12 if you're thinking of getting in early... I've placed preliminary orders with both that I'll modify closer to the time :)

PlayStation Network maintenance this Thursday

http://www.computerandvideogames.com/32 ... -thursday/

Something tells me 'maintenance' covers all sorts of Sony sins...

...


Modern Warfare 3 PS3 hot fix, title update this week

Cheater also banned for 5,000 days

http://www.computerandvideogames.com/32 ... this-week/

You'd think an annual release schedule would have eradicated a lot of issues over time alone, wouldn't you?

...


Battlefield 3 PS3 VoIP issues 'a top priority' for DICE

EU PS3 Store update in one easy to read list rather than trawling through the store (I'm downloading the Sonic CD and Goldeneye demos, though I have my doubts about Goldeneye already):

http://www.computerandvideogames.com/32 ... r-pound49/

Oh yeah, and the Access video download, always good for wasting 10 minutes :D
