Okay, so Greg might not like the adverts, but Game Stars Live is clearly going to be the videogame event of the year with games like Halo 2, Pro Evo 4, Splinter Cell 3 and Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap all being shown off in the UK for the first time. There's also a retro gaming zone, a 'groove zone' filled with the latest dance games, and loads of game challenges and competitions (Eidos is giving away £500 a day for the best score in Crash 'n Burn, the company's forthcoming street racer).
And you could be there!
We have 50 pairs of tickets to give away. All you have to do is mail your name, address and telephone number to us at gamesblog@gmail.com. The first 50 to arrive will get the goods. Just make sure you can be in London between 1-5 September, and that you know how to find the ExCeL venue (clue: there's a map on the Game Stars Live website).
As well as hundreds of new games, you can expect to see a fair few pop bands and plenty of celebs, as well as grown men dressed as videogame characters. You may even see my fellow bloggers Aleks and Greg (if he isn't barred), although I'll be back in Bath trying to finish The Official Football Manager Magazine issue 2 before it finishes me...
