If you're throwing a party soon, or just enjoying cracking people's wine glasses, today sees SingStar 90's (PS2) being released. It's one of those games that are best enjoyed with, or at least around, other people.

The announcement nobody wanted to happen has happened. Massive sighs all around – GTA IV will not meet its original promised release date in October.

It will, instead, be pushed all the way back to a simple “2008” date, although Take Two analysts have suggested that February is a likely month to now see Niko Bellic let loose. They also made their apologies and hoped that no inconvenience has been caused etc etc.
