This week's edition of Online

Thursdays just wouldn't be the same without another issue of Online making it from our grubby hands to yours.

This week we've got a gaming special in honour of E3. It's led by a piece looking at the next generation consoles - Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and Revolution - and wondering who has the strength to really change the way we play.

We also look at the rise of "One-Thumb" gaming, the future of in-game advertising - and whether we really want it, as well as an interview with Amon Tobin, who wrote the soundtrack to Splinter Cell 3.

Away from gaming, we look at the best gadgets for your summer holiday and get the lowdown on Microsoft's mobile email plans.

And we ask the ultimate question: if you left your iPod or your mobile phone at home, which would you miss the most? Dave Birch certainly knows what his answer is.

That's not all, of course: click here for a complete listing of this week's supplement.
